With all the various forms that sun protection now takes, it is simple to layer SPFs, and you can never have enough of it. Since who doesn’t like a two-in-one moment, one of my favorite ways to apply SPF is in my makeup or moisturizer? You may have heard of SPF-containing lip balm and tinted sunscreen. However, you have probably never used a bronzing balm with mineral SPF. For beach days when I want a little radiance or for days when I want to add a little more color when I go from beach to bar, the Colorescience Sunforgettable Total Protection Color Balm SPF 50 in Bronze has been a game-changer.
The Benefits:
Since the idea seems rather revolutionary, let’s dive into it. This balm stick contains Colorscience’s EnviroScreen Technology, which offers mineral defense against environmental hazards such as the sun, blue light, pollution, and infrared radiation. You’re getting a sun-kissed radiance on any area of your face that you think is appropriate throughout all of this.
How to Use It:
This is one of those items that may be used in a variety of ways; TikTok users will have a blast with it. According to Colorscience, its purpose is to moisturize and shield the lips, cheeks, and eyelids. To get a hint of bronze, apply the balm with your fingertips and blend. But feel free to apply the balm straight to your skin if you want a deeper color; it’s rather enjoyable.
Apply a little bit of color balm vertically to the thin area of your nose as a helpful tip not found on the Colorescience website. With just one quick swipe, you’ll get a bronze boost on your nose that simulates a natural sun tan—without any of the harm, of course. This stick also works well for contouring the cheekbones. Regarding the lips, it gives a bronze, somewhat frosted color while shielding the sensitive area.
