Fig. 2 What Colorescience says
Fig. 3 How to use it

- Dispense onto fingertips and rub gently to release and activate encapsulated pigments.
- As the shade begins to develop from white to your shade, apply to moisturized face and continue to blend for even coverage.
- The shade is fully developed when product is no longer white.
- Set with one of our Total Protection brush-on sunscreens or follow with foundation for full-color coverage.
This product contains Niacinamide, or Vitamin B3. If you have a known allergy to Niacinamide, or suspect you may be allergic, please perform a patch test on the forearm or neck area before using this product.
Face Shield Flex is my answer for clients who want sunscreen and a little coverage in one step. Rub it between the fingertips until the shade starts to show, then blend it over moisturized skin as the last step in the morning. I remind everyone to reapply at least every two hours when they are outside.
