Face SPF 40

I purchased this primer months ago and just ran out—it lasted a long time because I only use it a couple of times a week. It’s a bit pricey for me to use daily, but if cost isn’t an issue, this could easily be a go-to product. This is the best sunscreen I’ve ever used. I don’t understand reviews saying it’s too thick—it’s a primer, so that’s expected. If you don’t want a thicker texture, this just isn’t the product for you. I have very oily skin, and this mattifies beautifully and makes my pores look smaller. It layers perfectly over vitamin C and moisturizer, never pills under foundation, and keeps my makeup in place all day. Unlike other sunscreens, it doesn’t burn my eyes or cause my makeup to slide off. If you have oily or combination skin, it’s definitely worth trying.

I hate sunscreen. I hate how it feels, I hate applying it, I especially hate how it smells. Because of this I NEVER wear sunscreen unless it is on my body, smells like fruit, and i'm at the beach or the pool. I'm in my mid+ 40's and was just told that I have melasma on my forehead. To keep it from getting worse I decided to try this. It was a MUST that the product be unscented because if not i'd never use it. This is the most perfect facial sunscreen ever created. It has ZERO smell whatsoever. The texture of it is more whipped feeling. It smooths on so easily. I like that this has multiple purposes, it's spf obviously, it's a primer so makeup goes on over it so smoothly, and the tint to it is so amazing. It's not too dark and blends so beautifully. I honestly only need to wear a translucent powder over top of it. It doesn't cover imperfections but it does blur them a little bit which I like. Ulta used to sell this brand but no longer, so when I ran out of my old tube I came here to get it and will say the price seems high for the amount of product that you get but it is actually what the normal retail price is elsewhere and you need so much less than you think you need. One tube does last a really long time!

Let me start by saying, I usually don't write reviews unless I'm procrastinating, have strong feelings one way or another about a product, or when I remember that I rely on good reviews from real people to make purchase decisions (I always check amazon profiles of informative reviews to be sure it's not a one off bot / paid review). As a skin care professional, I happened upon this brand through the recommendation of a dermatologist specializing in contact dermatitis and after using this product for several months, I'm sold and have signed up for a renewing subscription through amazon (deliveries at set intervals). I'm preferential to physical blocking sunscreens because they're better for marine life, they work better, and I'm also sensitized to the components of many chemical sunscreens, but like most people dislike the thick white pastiness of some brands (which arguably contain a higher % of zinc oxide or titanium dioxide). This sunscreen has a matte finish, and subtle color that hides minor blemishes but also does not leave the sensation of a residue. It comes out of the tube chunky-ish but goes on smooth like a cream but sits on the skin with at a level of protection where I actually don't reapply all day (I do reapply if sweating or in water). I haven't gotten a tan with this on, and that's important in my field. I really think Cotz has done a great job and it's reasonably priced. It's a bit too expensive for me to justify using this for the entire body (I'll use a cheaper zinc oxide sunscreen for high sun outings) or a chemical blocker from the store (anything SPF 50+) for large body surface area, just for practicality. But day to day, the Cotz tinted sunscreens are the ones I prefer. I know there are a variety of Cotz products-- I've only tried the aqua-colored tubes of SPF 40 and SPF50 with tint.

I’ve tried countless sunscreens over the years, and this one is hands-down my favorite. Unlike so many others, it doesn’t run into my eyes or cause any irritation, even on hot or humid days. That alone is a huge win. What really makes this sunscreen stand out are the top-tier active ingredients: Titanium Dioxide and Zinc Oxide. These are the gold standard for physical (mineral) sun protection, offering broad-spectrum coverage without the harsh chemicals. I have very fair skin, and the tint in this formula blends in seamlessly — no white cast, no orange undertone, just natural-looking coverage that evens out my skin tone beautifully. It feels lightweight and non-greasy, and wears great under makeup too. I’ve already recommended it to two friends and they’re just as obsessed as I am. More people need to try this — it’s seriously that good

I really like this primer / SPF 40. It is malessezia safe. Meaning, it will not flare fungal acne/ eczema / psoriasis or other dermatitis. I have somewhat oily skin, so I like that it is a matte formula. I don't like to wear a lot of makeup, so I use this alone over a light moisturizer. It does not dry or irritate my sensitive skin. I only wish they made it in more colors. It is a bit light for my medium skin tone, but I can balance it out with a finishing powder that's a little darker. This is the only reason I don't give it five full stars.

Best primer sunscreen ever ! It’s tinted and makes my makeup last all day ! Keep my oily skin away

This product is fantastic. I had read a review online that it was the same as the Tizo 3 tinted mineral sunscreen (which I had been using), and it is. Non greasy, slight tint, good protection. I have sensitive skin, and it works like a charm. Highly recommended.

So far I love the feel of this SPF it feels better than any other sunblock I have used! I haven't tried it on my face though. So will update soon. I've heard it gives great protection a lot of people seem to love this product! .. Update .. I have used this stuff nearly everyday on my face for the last few months. This and Cotz Sensitive sunscreen are my favourites. They are the best I have used and I've tried loads of different sunscreens as I have tried to find 1 for daily use for the last 2 years which isn't too greasy and doesn't leave a white cast. The cons of the tinted sunscreen is I like it really slather a lot on and you can see that it doesn't completely rub in so what I do a lot now is use the Cotz sensitive and tinted together and it's a lot better. The Cotz sensitive is really good for dry skin. A little shiny but it's very good :)

Muy bueno, funciona super bien, no te deja la cara grasosa, a mi me gustó mucho

The product is excellent.. its fungal acne safe, good for oily skin and no white cast as it is tinted... that is a known thing for everyone... but i write this review mainly to specify another thing...the seller is good the product is orginal one... i encounter with the genuinity of the product several time before during online purchases... this seller is good

I wanted to like this tinted physical sunscreen. It came highly rated, but unfortunately my skin reacted negatively. I used it for a few weeks and my skin would break out each time. I’m also not a fan of the thick pastey texture of the sunscreen. The cost is also high for the amount of product you receive.
