Cotz Face SPF 40

Wonderful coverage! Keep that youthful glow, & protect your skin!Smooth application, no white residue, lightly tinted, not greasy!Highly recommend.

I really love this stuff. It protects my skin and delivers a flawless “no makeup” look. I have acne prone skin, but this silicone based formula never breaks me out. I double cleanse before bed, so I’m sure that plays a part! Great quality and great price.

It’s not often that I feel the need to write a review on Amazon especially for something that is already so well reviewed, but I used this for years without issue and then switched to Paulas choice in an effort to upgrade my routine and started breaking out badly. While silicone-based products are not great for some people they work really well on my skin so I came back to cotz. Upon re-purchasing, what stands out to me most about this product is the texture which mimics benefits pore-fessional primer and fills in pores and acne scars and the subtle tint which counteracts redness. I use this instead of foundation and spot conceal and it is the perfect canvas that allows my Nars concealer to blend seamlessly into my skin. If I’m going to the beach I might wear a more thick milky consistency sunscreen but for every day use this is the perfect combination of primer and tinted moisturizer and my skin looks so much better with it. It’s not greasy it doesn’t burn and it doesn’t itch like a lot of other sunscreens do. personally I use a layer of rosehip oil on my skin first to thin it out, and this combination is the best I found to prevent breakouts and protect my skin from the sun so that my scars don’t turn brown or purple. Holy grail sunscreen.

I burn super easily. I can apply this to my face just once and spend an entire day at the pool with no burning.A little goes a long way! I can use about a penny-sized amount for my whole face. And sometimes I even mix less than that with some lotion if it's just for casual skin protection.This has zero oily or greasy feeling. I hate the feeling of anything on my skin. I don't even wear makeup because it feels gross. But I willingly apply this just to go to the dog park for an hour because I don't even feel it. There are some 1 star reviews saying otherwise, but I think they just got an old tube, because I've repurchased this multiple times and it has never matched those descriptions.Do keep in mind, though, that this stuff is WATERPROOF. If your face wash does not remove makeup, it will not remove this sunscreen.The color might not be for everyone. Someone said it was orange on them. It is lightly tinted and looks fine on me, but I am a relatively "standard" white person. So, if you are very fair it may not work well for you. If you have darker skin it should look good. Since it is so light it will probably disappear on you like it does for me. Though I'm not a mocha lady so I can't promise!And for the person who said they got freckles after a year of wearing this.... I hate to be the one to tell you this, but that's called aging. Freckles appear regardless of sun exposure. In fact, I was born with some, and I promise my mama's belly has no windows!

Love this sunscreen. Wish the color was a little lighter, but I mix with the non tinted to make a lighter shade. Great for acne prone skin as there are no pore clogging ingredients.

I received a tube as a PR package right as I started to notice my longtime facial sunscreen was creasing in my fine lines. I’ve had zero luck with tinted sunscreens in the past. One, I’m allergic to a bunch of sunscreens for no rhyme or reason according to my dermatologist and an allergist. So I’m limited on what I can use. Two, most tinted moisturizers have made my skin an oil slick. So I’d settled into an almost decade long relationship with Vichy Capital Soleil Anti-Aging Ultra Light Sunscreen Fluid SPF 50. I’ve lived with the white cast on my light olive skin. For the most part I could blend it in pretty well. But now that the fine lines are getting a little more pronounced as I’m in my late 40s, it just settles in them and creases more than I like throughout the day.So this Cotz showed up and I gave it a try.I love it. The color blended beautifully. No more white cast. And it left me feeling moisturized and matte. It almost has a cashmere like texture on the skin. It wears so well. I don’t spend a huge amount of time in the sun and I also don’t burn; I tan very easily. So I’ll assume the SPF protection is doing what it says it does. As for under makeup: I’ve been laying a gel blush and a setting powder over this and been really happy. I’m not a foundation person. I do like a tinted moisturizer or primer and this fills that roll really well. I’m now on my second tube which I bought myself and have since stockpiled an additional 2 tubes. So I plan to stick with this sunscreen as I move through my late 40s.

smooth application. great coverage.

I love this facial sunscreen. It acts like a concealer while a-great sunscreen. I love the matte finish, light tint and no sun burn. I have used this product for several years. I have not found any product that works as well.
