TIZO TIZO3 Facial Mineral Sunscreen & Primer SPF 40 — Tinted 1.75 oz, Sheer Matte, Oil-Free

This facial sunscreen combines titanium, iron and zinc oxides in a refined tint that blurs imperfections and sits invisibly under makeup or alone. Formulated without chemical sunscreen agents, fragrances, dyes, oils, or parabens, it provides photo-protection while maintaining a silky, oil-free texture ideal for sensitive and acne-prone skin. The formula is water resistant for up to 80 minutes and carries a PA+++ rating for enhanced UVA defense.

How does TIZO3 function as both sunscreen and primer?

TIZO3 uses mineral filters (titanium and zinc oxides) plus iron oxide tint to physically block and reflect UV rays while creating a soft matte base. Its texture minimizes shine and smooths skin texture so makeup adheres evenly. The sheer tint evens skin tone without heavy coverage.

• Mineral UV filters reflect/refract UVA/UVB light.
• Silky matte finish controls oil and minimizes pores.
• Tinted formula provides light coverage and color correction.
• Oil-free base makes it compatible with foundation and concealer.

Is this safe for sensitive or acne-prone skin?

Yes — the product is free from chemical sunscreen actives, fragrances, dyes, oils and preservatives that can irritate sensitive skin. The non-comedogenic, oil-free texture reduces the risk of breakouts and is often recommended by dermatologists for reactive skin types. Always patch-test if you have known sensitivities.

• No chemical UV filters or fragrances.
• Oil-free and lightweight to avoid pore-clogging.
• Suitable as part of a dermatologist-recommended routine.
• Gentle mineral actives provide physical protection.

How should I apply and reapply TIZO3 for best protection?

Apply liberally at least 15 minutes before sun exposure, spreading evenly over all exposed facial skin. Reapply after 80 minutes of swimming or sweating, immediately after towel drying, and at least every two hours during prolonged sun exposure. Use the product under makeup or on its own for daily wear.

• Apply generously 15 minutes before sun exposure.
• Reapply after 80 minutes of water exposure or heavy sweating.
• Reapply after towel drying and at least every two hours.
• Safe to use under makeup as a primer or alone for minimal makeup days.

Does the tint leave a white cast on darker skin tones?

The sheer tint with iron oxides is designed to minimize the typical white cast associated with mineral sunscreens, offering subtle color correction and blending more naturally across a range of skin tones. Because results vary by skin tone and application amount, blending thoroughly and allowing a moment to set will improve invisibility.

• Iron oxide tint reduces visible white residue.
• Sheer formula provides light coverage and evening of tone.
• Blend well and use a light layer for the most natural look.

Who is this for? TIZO3 is intended for anyone seeking a mineral, fragrance-free facial sunscreen that doubles as a mattifying primer: people with sensitive or oily skin, those who prefer reef-friendly mineral protection, and makeup wearers who want a lightweight, non-greasy base. It’s especially useful for individuals who avoid chemical UV filters but still want broad-spectrum daily defense with subtle tint and a polished finish.
