Frequently asked questions

What does Flex mean in Face Shield?

Flex pigments adapt to your skin tone. When blended, the colour merges with the skin. The result is seamless SPF 50 coverage that looks like your own skin.

What is the difference between Face Shield Flex and Natural Finish Foundation?

Face Shield Flex is sun protection with colour; Natural Finish is foundation with sun protection. Flex focuses on SPF 50 with adaptive coverage; Natural Finish focuses on make-up finish with SPF 20 as a bonus.

How do the Flex pigments adapt to my skin tone?

Pigment-adaptive technology uses encapsulated colour molecules that dissolve on contact with the skin and adapt to your individual tone. This makes the shade more personalised than a fixed foundation colour.

Can I use Face Shield Flex as a pure sun protection without coverage?

Possible, but it is designed for visible coverage. If you want pure, invisible SPF 50, use the classic Face Shield SPF 50 instead - same protection, no tint.

How do I apply Face Shield Flex evenly without streaks?

With brush or sponge in thin layers: start with cheeks, then forehead, then nose and chin. Pat briefly to set, then blend the edges with fingertips. The Flex pigments adapt during blending.

About the brand

Colorescience specialises in mineral sunscreen - from tinted fluids and powder brushes through to lip care with SPF. Because the products filter in a purely mineral way, they sit on top of the skin rather than penetrating into it. This makes them particularly well tolerated by sensitive skin or skin prone to redness. Many products combine UV protection with a light tint, so that you take care of skincare and make-up in one step.
