CoTZ Tinted Mineral Sunscreen & Facial Primer SPF 40 PA+++ 1.5 oz — Sheer Matte, Oil-Free Finish

CoTZ Face Prime & Protect is a lightweight, tinted mineral sunscreen and facial primer that provides broad-spectrum SPF 40 protection with a weightless matte finish.

This dual-action formula combines mineral sun filters and skin-smoothing primer pigments to protect against UVA/UVB rays while creating a silky, oil-free base for makeup or clean, natural coverage on bare skin. Free from chemical sunscreens, fragrances, dyes, oils, preservatives, gluten and phthalates, it’s designed for daily wear, reef-friendly use, and gentle application around the eye area.

How does this product protect my skin during outdoor exposure?

CoTZ Face Prime & Protect uses physical (mineral) filters to reflect and scatter UVA and UVB radiation instead of absorbing it. The formula is broad-spectrum SPF 40 and PA+++ rated, offering measurable protection against sunburn and high-energy UVA wavelengths when applied as directed.

• Broad-spectrum SPF 40 shields against UVB responsible for sunburn.
• PA+++ offers strong defense against UVA-related skin aging.
• Mineral actives sit on the skin surface for immediate protection.
• Water resistant properties help retain protection during light activity.

Will it interfere with makeup or leave a greasy finish?

Designed as a primer and tinted sunscreen in one, this product creates a silky, sheer matte surface that minimizes shine and helps makeup adhere evenly. The non-greasy texture blends translucent pigments for natural color correction without feeling heavy under foundation.

• Sheer tint evens skin tone and reduces the need for heavy concealers.
• Silky soft finish works as a makeup primer for longer wear.
• Non-comedogenic-feel suitable for layering under powder or liquid bases.
• Matte result controls oil for normal to oily skin types.

Is it suitable for sensitive skin and the eye area?

The formulation avoids common irritants like chemical sunscreens, fragrances, dyes, and preservatives to reduce potential sensitivity. It’s described as gentle on the eyes and tolerable for many reactive skin types, though patch testing is recommended for very sensitive skin.

• Free from fragrances, dyes, and chemical UV filters.
• Mineral-based actives are less likely to irritate sensitive skin.
• Gentle application recommended around the eyelids and lash line.
• Patch test first if you have known reactive skin conditions.

How does it help with signs of aging and skin texture?

By limiting UV exposure, the product helps lower the environmental stress that contributes to uneven pigmentation, fine lines and loss of elasticity. The primer elements create a smoother surface that visually reduces pores and the appearance of early age-related marks when used consistently.

• Helps reduce dermal heat build-up that can affect collagen over time.
• Silky primer pigments blur fine lines and minimize pores.
• Regular sun protection supports prevention of new age-marks and spots.
• Light tint provides subtle coverage to mask discoloration.

Who this product is for: CoTZ Face Prime & Protect is ideal for anyone seeking a multitasking daily face product that simplifies a beauty routine—people who want reliable mineral sun protection plus a matte primer finish under makeup or worn alone. It suits those preferring fragrance-free, chemical-free formulations, users with normal to oily skin looking to control shine, and frequent outdoor individuals seeking reef-friendly mineral protection. Those with very dry skin may prefer a separate moisturizer underneath for added hydration.
