Ogee PROTECT Skin Enhancing Primer SPF 40 - Mineral Zinc Oxide Sunscreen & Lightweight Makeup Primer

Designed as a leave-on moisturizer and makeup base, this mineral primer pairs Zinc Oxide with nourishing Gooseberry Fruit Juice and Cranberry Seed Oil to defend skin from UV exposure while promoting a smooth, luminous surface. The formula is lightweight and non-greasy, created to sit comfortably under foundation or be worn alone for daily sun protection and subtle skin enhancement.

How does this primer protect skin from the sun?

PROTECT relies on non-nano Zinc Oxide to provide broad-spectrum mineral defense against UVA and UVB rays without chemical filters. The mineral actives sit on the skin’s surface to reflect and scatter sunlight, making it a suitable option for people who prefer physical sunscreens.

• SPF 40 broad-spectrum protection with Zinc Oxide
• Mineral-based, chemical-free UV defense
• Suitable for daily use under makeup or standalone

Will it work as a primer for makeup application?

Yes — the lightweight texture is engineered to smooth skin and create a balanced base for foundation, BB cream, or tinted moisturizers. It reduces the look of unevenness and helps makeup adhere evenly without feeling heavy or sticky.

• Non-greasy, fast-absorbing finish that supports long-wear makeup
• Creates an even canvas for foundation and concealer
• Helps minimize patchiness and improves blendability

What skin benefits do the botanicals provide?

Gooseberry Fruit Juice and Cranberry Seed Oil bring antioxidant properties and lightweight nourishment to the formula, helping skin feel hydrated while protecting against environmental stressors. These plant extracts work alongside the mineral sunscreen to support a healthier-looking complexion without heavy oils.

• Gooseberry Fruit Juice: antioxidant support and subtle hydration
• Cranberry Seed Oil: lightweight nourishment and skin conditioning
• Moisturizing base that won’t disrupt makeup application

How should I incorporate PROTECT into my routine?

Apply PROTECT as the final step of your skincare routine and before makeup. Use an even layer to cover exposed areas, allowing a moment to set before applying foundation; reapply sunscreen throughout the day if exposed to prolonged sunlight.

• Use after moisturizer and before foundation or BB cream
• Apply evenly to face, neck, and exposed areas; blend well
• Reapply as needed during extended sun exposure

Who is this for? PROTECT Skin Enhancing Primer SPF 40 is ideal for people seeking a mineral-based sunscreen that doubles as a makeup primer — especially those who prefer lightweight, non-chemical sun protection and gentle botanical support. It suits a range of skin types that want daily SPF integrated into their beauty routine while maintaining a smooth base for cosmetics.

• HOW TO APPLY: Apply an even layer following skincare routine and before makeup application.
