It usually requires a combination of both to achieve a truly exceptional product.

    The Best Clean Beauty Multitasker
    Sunscreen has become a hot topic in the dirty cosmetics world. We’ve learned that mineral is best but not all mineral protection is clean and safe. This is why I really wanted to introduce you to CoTZ, just in case they haven’t hit your radar. Yes, their entire line is super silky and super clean but the Prime and Protect SPF 40 is quite simply the most amazing multitasking product I’ve met. Alone, It creates a golden glow on skin while it protects. And if you want to wear it under your makeup, it works as one of the most line smoothing primers I’ve used. Just amazing! 
    Brand Philosopy: We care deeply about providing the safest, healthiest way to protect your skin.
    CōTZ was founded in 2002 by a plastic surgeon whose singular mission was to create healthier mineral sunscreens that people want to wear daily. The result was an all-mineral sunscreen collection that feels elegant while keeping your skin safe from harmful UVA-UVB rays. CŌTZ® STANDS FOR: Contains Only Titanium & ZincCōTZ® contains no chemical sunscreens, which can be irritating, penetrate your skin, and absorb UV energy. Mineral sunscreens are inherently gentle and work by reflecting away harmful rays. So you never have to worry about harmful rays heating up and absorbing into your skin.
