“I like the application and lightness of the powder. I did carry it in a backpack during a vacation and didn't realize that there was a cap on the bottom of the powder cartridge. It came unscrewed in my backpack and I lost the majority of the powder. The cartridge did not come unscrewed from the brush so I'm not sure why there is a second cap at the bottom and is a poor design for portability.”
Hi Meg! We're so sorry to hear your brush spilled. We'll have a member of our team reach out directly. Our brushes are designed to unscrew on the bottom to refill, and so it's best to be sure to hold onto the upper part with the writing "mineral sunscreen" when rotating open/close and also give the bottom cap a little extra twist in the closed direction to be sure it's secure prior to stowing away.
If you have not already, be sure to take a look at our "How-To" page to learn more about your brush.

“I love this product. I have one in the car and at home. This is my second time owning one and it's amazing. Definatly better than putting sunscreen on. Great for beaches as well”
“I sweat profusely and cannot use cream based sunblocks. This brush on block is absolutely perfect for me! I use it on my face, neck, ears, throat, shoulders, arms and hands! I will never be without this! You should run to order, you will not regret it!”
“I appreciated how easy this was to apply. I liked that it was an alternative to sticky, slimy lotions. I did pink up when using this on my décolleté. I think it might be better to use as a second coat after applying a liquid sunscreen.”
Hi Jenny! Our mineral powder are designed to be stand alone sunscreen, and are FDA tested to provide the coverage listed when applied as directed. To achieve complete and even coverage, divide areas up into smaller sections, like 1/2-face, and with the brush in the open position apply by buffing in circular motions for about 15-seconds before moving to the next section. Be sure to reapply at least every two hours in the sun and immediately after toweling off. Please also check out our "How-To" page to learn more about your brush.

“I use this on my face but really love it for protecting my scalp at the part when I'm outdoors and not wearing a hat. Doesn't weigh down my hair or make it look dirty/greasy.”
“I ordered this to use for the part in my hair. I have had a sun burn in my part in the past and this is very uncomfortable. Putting other sunscreen in the part in my hair is oily and messy. I tried this brush on sun screen for a week while visiting and hiking in Canyonlands National Park, and it was great! Went on so easily, no oiliness or mess, and no sun burn! I will definitely keep this handy!”
