TiZO® TiZO3 Facial Primer Sunscreen SPF 40 (Tinted)

TiZO3 is a sheer, tinted mineral sunscreen that doubles as a foundation primer. It gives broad-spectrum SPF 40 protection with Titanium Dioxide and Zinc Oxide, dries to a matte finish, and layers invisibly under makeup. It is photostable, so it does not degrade in sunlight, and is free from chemical sunscreen filters, dyes, fragrances, oils and preservatives. The 50 g tube is also reef friendly.

Yes. TiZO3 is described as gentle enough for all skin types, including the most sensitive, and its physical broad-spectrum protection makes it a popular choice for post-procedure use. The universal tint suits a wide range of skin tones and gives a hint of evening without heavy coverage. If you prefer no colour at all, the TiZO2 Non-Tinted version has the same base formula.

Apply TiZO3 liberally 15 minutes before sun exposure, after your moisturizer and before makeup. Reapply at least every 2 hours, after 80 minutes of swimming or sweating, and immediately after towel drying. For children under 6 months, ask a doctor. Because it has a matte, primer-like finish, many people use it as the final skincare step and go straight to foundation.

TiZO3 comes in a 50 g tube. TiZO does not state how many applications that gives, and it depends on how liberally you apply and how often you reapply outdoors. For a face-only morning application, a tube typically lasts around a season. Protection begins with the first application, and the matte, primer-like finish is immediate rather than something you wait weeks to see.

TiZO3 works as the last skincare step and the first makeup step. Pair it with a gentle cleanser such as TiZO's Gentle Foam Cleanser, an antioxidant or peptide product like AM Rejuvenation or the Advanced Vitamin C and E Serum, and a light moisturizer if your skin needs it. Then apply your foundation or powder directly over it; the matte finish helps makeup sit smoothly.

TiZO3 is formulated to be gentle, but if your skin is reactive, patch test before full use. Apply it over fully absorbed serums rather than mixing it into them, since diluting a sunscreen reduces its protection. Reapply on schedule, keep it away from the eyes, and stop use if irritation develops. After a procedure, follow your provider's advice on when to begin applying sunscreen.

TiZO3 and TiZO2 share the same mineral base of Titanium Dioxide 8% and Zinc Oxide 3.8%, the same matte primer finish, SPF 40 and photostable protection. The difference is colour: TiZO3 carries Iron Oxide for a sheer universal tint that evens the look of skin, while TiZO2 dries clear. Choose TiZO3 for light coverage on no-makeup days and TiZO2 if you want an invisible base.
