How To Refill Your Brush On Block ApplicatorBrush on Block
Important information
Directions
BRUSH ON BLOCK is housed in a self-dispensing brush. The powder flows through the brush and out the head of the brush. When you receive the brush it will be in the "close" position. Remove the top cap and slide the plastic sleeve all the way down to uncover the brush head. Turn the bottom cartridge slightly (about 1/2") until you feel a click (don't keep turning it or you will unscrew the cartridge completely). Now the brush is in the "open" position and the powder should flow through the brush to the brush head. Hold the brush in your hand and flick your wrist until you see the minerals in the brush head. Apply liberally to face, neck, chest and hands. For smaller areas around the eyes and nose, slide the sleeve halfway up the brush for more precise application. Turn the bottom of the container to the right back to the "close" position and replace cover when not in use.
Customer reviews
Customer Reviews, including Product Star Ratings help customers to learn more about the product and decide whether it is the right product for them.
To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. Instead, our system considers things like how recent a review is and if the reviewer bought the item on Amazon. It also analyzed reviews to verify trustworthiness.
Learn more how customers reviews work on AmazonCustomers say
Customers find the sunscreen effective at preventing sunburn, particularly for oily and sensitive skin, and appreciate its ease of application, especially on ears and scalp. The product is convenient to carry in a purse and many consider it worth the price. However, the functionality and color receive mixed feedback - while some say it works well, others report issues with the applicator, and while some like the nice healthy color, others note an unattractive orange tint. Moreover, durability is mixed, with some saying it holds up well while others report the plastic container breaking on second use, and value for money opinions vary between those who find it worth the price and those who say there's very little product for the price point.

- Reviewed in the United States on April 26, 2025Color: Touch of TanVerified PurchaseRead reviews and was hesitant. Idk how people spilled the powder when there's labeling on where to turn it to open. The bottom has a clean tape to keep you from opening the wrong one. I love the pull up lid. I do find the top lid does not stay well. Getting product out is random. Sometimes you get a lot sometimes not so much. Does it actually protect you from sun? Idk but I love it. Keeps me from being shinny and so compact.
- Reviewed in the United States on December 23, 2024Edit: January 19, 2025
I have been using this powdered sunscreen for almost a month and it is almost time for a refill. I am curious how long it last for others. I have’t seen a mention of timeframe except someone mentioned it last a long time.
I am not sure I can afford a refill every month to a month and half. But I also really do not want to go back to cream sunscreen. This powdered translucent(still has some color to it) leaves my face non-greasy and soft. So something that I recommend to the company increase how much powder you give the customer.
A way my husband explained it to me is it would be no different than having a subscription. I do not have any subscriptions to anything so this would be like that for me.
December 23, 2024
So far I love this sunscreen! This is the first time I have used powder sunscreen. It is easy to use and I have not had any mechanical issues with the tube. The powder comes out as it should.
I ordered the translucent powder 30spf. I wish I would have order the 50 since I am using it for my face, but I am still happy with the product.
I love not having a white film or greasy face like traditional sunscreens give. I also love how you can order refills, which I will definitely be doing.

- Reviewed in the United States on September 29, 2024Color: Touch of TanVerified PurchaseMy daughter-in-law highly recommends this, and so far, so good. I've not had any sun burns. I worry, though, that I'm not putting enough on. She suggested once the powder appears on the brush to use that for one side of your face, then to tap on your hand until you see more powder and use that on the other side. I really like that's it's a dry powder and I don't feel like I have a plastic mask on my face making me sweat. Goes nicely over foundation as a dry powder.
- Reviewed in the United States on July 26, 2017LOVE!!! I bought this specifically to use in my hair, where it is thinning a bit and where the part is, because it keeps getting burned and regular sunblock makes my hair greasy and gross ... I have dark brown hair and the tan color blends just fine if you blend it with your fingers (prob even easier on blonde) - and no greasy hair and my head hasn't burned once since using!!
HOWEVER what I found surprising - and wonderful - is how GREAT this is on my face!! I have super sensitive skin so didn't think I'd be able to use on face, however i have had NO bad reaction to this!! In fact, the powder helps keep away shine, absorb sweat, and makes my skin look great (with no breakouts like regular sunblock)!! The translucent skin color hides blemishes and gives me an even skin tone ... Plus NO burn any day I've worn it!
It's also a convenient container, easy for travel and keeping in my purse (and works perfectly fine, if you READ THE DIRECTIONS and click it open and closed, despite some other reviews). I do sometimes prefer to tap the powder onto a bigger/softer brush when home so I get better coverage and less powder flying around, but the brush it came with works ok and still feels good on my face. My first brush/tube lasted about a month before I needed to order a refill, but it's summer and I'm using it often on my entire face and hairline/part, with multiple touch ups when I sweat. I highly recommend this product. Totally worth the price!!
- Reviewed in the United States on June 14, 2024I liked the ease of powder application and it offered good sunscreen protection for a few minutes. It quickly sweated off though and mildly stung my eyes during outside activities,
- Reviewed in the United States on August 28, 2024Color: Touch of TanVerified PurchaseI was skeptical about the coverage of this product, but I have been using it every single day since it arrived and have yet to get sunburnt even though I spend upwards of 6 hours a day in the sun during the work week. I have also tested it on the weekend in instances where I would normally wear some sort of cream sunscreen on my face, but this seems to work just as well. For folks having concerns about coverage issue, I understand. I have been applying it by going in many circles over my face and seem to be successful with no problems. I have extremely sensitive skin along with a number of allergies and this is the first sunscreen ever that doesn't seem to break my face out at all. This will now be my go-to sunscreen for my face!

4.0 out of 5 stars Good mineral sunscreen
Color: Touch of TanVerified PurchaseThis is a very handy product to throw in your handbag and lasts a long time. Easy to use, just barely twist it and powder comes out. Only reason for deducting one star is the powder gets a bit caked on the skin so just light touches only.

5.0 out of 5 stars Wo war dieses Produkt mein ganzes Leben?
Super Produkt! Kein Puderrückstand, klein und handlich für die Handtasche, einfach zum auf- und nachtragen! Ich verwende das Puder zusammen mit einer richtigen Sonnencreme für das Gesicht, und hatte bisher noch keinen Sonnenbrand. Ganz tolle Sache, da das Gesicht nicht wie sonst total glänzt. Ich vertrage es mit meiner Mischhaut sehr gut. Werde ich wohl die nächsten Jahre auf jeden Fall jeden Sommer verwenden! Finde es toll, dass man den Inhalt nachfüllen kann, sehr nachhaltig! 5 Sterne!

5.0 out of 5 stars Auch Männer mögen es
Ich habe mir vor der Bestellung die Rezensionen durchgelesen und ich muss sagen, ich hatte keine Probleme mit der Anwendung, Sonnenbrand etc. sogar mein Mann war begeistert vom Puder. Man hört kein Klick aber man spürt den Widerstand. Sonnenschutz ist auch gegeben und das Puder mattiert ohne blass zu machen.

KatharinaReviewed in Germany on June 23, 2019
4.0 out of 5 stars Angenehm leicht, bin aber nicht sicher, ob das einen umfassenden Schutz bietet
Meine Haut neigt zwar kaum zu Sonnenbrand, reagiert aber sehr allergisch auf die meisten gängigen Sonnenschutzprodukte. Zudem mag ich das klebrige schwitzige Gefühl von Sonnencremes nicht im Gesicht. Dieses Puder fühlt sich angenehm leicht und trocken an, ich puder es einfach über die normale Tagespflege.
Ich habe jetzt keinen Extremtest gemacht :) bin allerdings skeptisch, ob man damit wirklich einen halbwegs sicheren UV-Schutz hinbekommt, ich denke, dafür müsste man schon sehr deckend pudern. Menschen mit sehr sonnenempfindlicher Haut sollten vielleicht vorsichtig sein und langsam starten, aber ansonsten kann ich das Puder absolut empfehlen. Ja, es ist teuer, aber ein billiges Produkt, das im Schrank bleibt, weil es unangenehm zu tragen ist, hilft mir auch nicht.
