“This is a good concept but a) it’s too expensive, b) it requires reading detailed instructions to understand how to use the product the first time and c) it’s difficult to evaluate whether adequate product has been applied. I must not have applied enough because I ended up with a sunburn. As much as I hate cream sunscreens, at least you can see if you missed a spot. On a positive note, it has a 100% matte finish which is why I bought it. I’ll continue to use it on my face but not unless I have a backup protection method like a hat, in case I didn’t apply enough or missed spots.”
Thank you for giving Brush On Block a try!
Our brushes are meant for smaller areas like the face, head, neck, arms, hands, tops of feet, not necessarily full body. They will generally last about 2-3 months for most people with regular use or 60-75-applications.
Our brushes also have a unique locking system to prevent powder from spilling out of the brush when it's not in use. Once you understand how to "open" the brush, they are really easy to use going forward.
After the brush is open and ready to go, apply by splitting an area into smaller sections (like 1/2-face) and buffing the powder onto the skin in a circular motion for about 15-20 seconds and give the brush a little shake between areas. You can see if your brush is working if you do this on the back of one of your hands, buff the powder on as you would half of your face and then compare the two, you will see the powder is there.
Be sure to re apply at least every two hours when in the sun and immediately after toweling off.
If for any reason you need further assistance, our team is always happy to help.
“First powder mineral sunscreen that doesn’t bother my eyes. Super easy to activate, no struggling to get the powder to flow. Exceptional product! Hoping the spf 50 refills come out soon!”

The Brush On Block Team
“Grew up in the tropics and have never found a liquid sunscreen that feels good or like nothing on my skin. Enter the Brush On Block!!! I've gone from rarely wearing sunscreen to almost always wearing it due to the BOB. I highly recommend this product and have worn it swimming, hiking, and camping, so I KNOW it works. Get it. You won't regret it. Wish this was around back when I was a kid and crying sunscreen out of my stinging eyes!”

“Where has this been my whole life! As a person who struggles with the smell and feel of sunscreen, but is also ridiculously pale, I tend to just stay out of the sun rather than endure sunscreen. This is the first kind that is not only functional, but I can use without feeling gross and doesn't seem to clog my pores. Even my feral toddler is happy to put it on. I will say, it's not quite as strong as the 50 lotions, but it's enough for a day out and about or a short time outside. Just be sure to follow the instructions!”
“I used this 50 block on my face all summer (with nothing else), and I never got burned and have a fabulous tan that everyone talks about. I cannot say enough about this product!!”
