Colorescience Brush-On Mineral Sunscreen Powder, Medium Shade — SPF 50, Lightweight Brush-In Protection

Colorescience Brush-On Sunscreen Mineral Powder is a lightweight, 100% mineral SPF 50 brush-in powder that shields sensitive skin from UVA/UVB, blue light, pollution and infrared rays while providing sheer, buildable coverage.

This compact brush delivers convenient, no-mess sun protection you can apply over makeup or bare skin. Powered by EnviroScreen® Technology, the formula combines zinc oxide and titanium dioxide with iron oxides, antioxidants and hyaluronic acid powder to protect, blur and hydrate without heavy residue. The medium shade offers subtle tint and finish suited for light-to-medium complexions, and the travel-friendly packaging makes reapplying during the day effortless.

How do I apply the Powder Brush for reliable daytime protection?

Preparation and technique matter: activate the brush by tapping to release powder, then sweep in small circular motions for even coverage. Apply generously for at least 60 seconds, making multiple passes across the face and extending to ears and neck. Reapply every two hours for continuous protection, and repeat activation if powder flow lessens.

• Open cap, pull sleeve, remove rubber band, recap and tap 3–5 times with cap down to prime.
• Remove cap, run finger through bristles to check powder flow; tap again if needed.
• Use circular motions across face, neck, ears; apply for at least 60 seconds.
• Reload by shaking bristles downward or recap-and-tap during touch-ups.

Can I use this over makeup and on sensitive or reactive skin?

Yes—this brush-on powder is designed for layering over foundation, moisturizer or bare skin and is suitable for sensitive skin types. Its 100% mineral actives (zinc oxide and titanium dioxide) are non-chemical filters that sit on the skin surface, reducing irritation risk. Ensure underlying creams or foundations are fully set before applying to avoid pilling.

• Works over makeup: apply after products are set to prevent disturbing coverage.
• Mineral-based SPF reduces potential for irritation compared with chemical sunscreens.
• Free from parabens, phthalates, synthetic fragrance, talc and drying alcohols.
• Hyaluronic Acid powder helps support skin moisture during wear.

What protection does the formula provide beyond SPF?

Beyond broad-spectrum UVA/UVB defense, the award-winning formula blocks HEV (blue) light and helps defend against pollution and infrared radiation. Iron oxides help filter high-energy visible light, while an antioxidant blend neutralizes free radicals produced by environmental stressors. The powder is also water- and sweat-resistant for up to 80 minutes, making it useful for outdoor activities.

• SPF 50 PA++++ — high-level UV protection in mineral form.
• Iron oxides provide HEV (blue light) defense for screen exposure.
• Antioxidants counter free radicals from pollution and environmental stress.
• Water/sweat resistant up to 80 minutes for active days outdoors.

How long will one brush last, and how often should I reapply?

A single 0.21 oz (6 g) brush typically supplies about 90 days of use with typical daily applications. Reapply at least every two hours when exposed to sunlight or HEV light; reapplication is simple thanks to the on-the-go brush format. For heavy sweating or water exposure, follow with a full liquid or cream SPF reapplication as needed.

• Net weight: 0.21 oz / 6 g — approximately a 90-day supply for standard use.
• Reapply every two hours for continuous UV and HEV protection.
• Use more frequently after swimming or heavy sweating beyond the 80-minute resistance.
• Suitable as daytime touch-up between sunscreen reapplications.

Who is this for: Colorescience Brush-On Sunscreen Mineral Powder in Medium is ideal for people with sensitive or reactive skin who want mineral-based, non-irritating broad-spectrum protection that layers easily over makeup. It’s also a strong pick for anyone seeking lightweight, photo-friendly coverage and daily environmental defense—especially commuters, travelers and professionals who need a quick, tidy sun-shielding touch-up during the day.
