The Best Tinted Primer With SPF For Healthy and Beautiful Skin

So we already know that Sunscreen is very important for our skin, right? It’s going to keep our skin healthy in addition to helping prevent wrinkles. It’s a must. Sometimes we (at least I) forget to put sunscreen on before doing my makeup. Then I found the best tinted primer with SPF in it so I don’t need to worry about missing my sunscreen anymore!

I like to wear sunscreen every day no matter what time of year it is. While I have always made sure my moisturizer has spf, I also found this amazing sunscreen that actually primes and protects your skin while giving you a hint of color.

Have you heard of COTZ before? They are famous for their natural sunscreens.

For years now I have been using COTZ Sunscreen prime and protect with an SPF 40. It’s such an all around amazing product and one of the best tinted primers with SPF. I started with the brand because I wanted a safe sunscreen for my baby and kids in addition to a safe sunscreen for myself during pregnancy.

EWG gives it the highest safety rating

I loved it so much I have been using it ever since pregnancy!

THE BEST TINTED PRIMER WITH SPF

If you haven’t tried a primer yet, I highly recommend you try one. They are wonderful for blurring imperfections, keeping your makeup from creasing and helping your makeup stay on longer.

I am very fair all year round and besides using a bronzer, I wanted something that would give me a little extra color when I’m wanting a healthy glow. Instead of buying a sunscreen, primer and tinted moisturizer separately, this product has everything I need in one tube!

I love that it gives you a little bit of color while protecting your skin from the sun in addition to priming the skin.

Here’s how I use it.

I wash my face as usual, apply my moisturizers and then apply the COTZ prime and protect.

You can also mix this primer with your moisturizer if you want to give yourself more of a dewy glow as this has a matte finish.

Some days I will put foundation over it and other days I will wear the primer alone.

It gives you just the right amount of color, not orangey at all.

And….

It blurs your imperfections. So if you hate wearing foundation or maybe just want a lighter feel some days, this is your primer.

I especially love it for warm summer days.

The primer has a thicker consistency when it comes out of the tube, but you don’t need a lot. It goes on smoothly and does not feel heavy at all.

It really does blur your imperfections and the slight tint helps with that as well because it’s covering discolorations a bit too.

The bonus is that it has the SPF of 40. I actually use this as my beach sunscreen for my face as well. I have never gotten a burn when using this.

My regular moisturizer has an SPF of 15 , but it’s just not enough for me. I have seen what sun can do to my skin(aka chest freckles!) so I am now diligent about protecting my face from the sun as I get older. I do miss getting a golden glow, but this really helps give me a little color to make me feel better.

I used my new favorite tanning drops, Isle of Paradise, and then I applied the Cotz Primer with spf over it. I’m wearing under eye concealer, but no foundation. I just wanted you to see that it doesn’t make you look orange. I like it paired with the self tanner. It’s a good combo:)
