Description
Colorescience Total Protection Face Shield SPF 50 Glow is the luminous shade, a mineral face sunscreen with a pearlescent, golden-champagne glow. It is powered by EnviroScreen® technology, Colorescience’s mineral approach designed to help defend against UVA and UVB rays as well as blue light, pollution and infrared radiation.
Dermastore lists Glow as suited to Fitzpatrick skin types I to IV. Wear it all over, or with Face Shield Classic and use Glow on the cheekbones, bridge of the nose and brow bone to highlight.
With 12% zinc oxide, niacinamide and bisabolol, it can be worn alone, mixed with other Face Shields for a custom tint, or layered under make-up and over treatment products. Colorescience lists the Face Shield range as water resistant for 40 minutes.
