Amazing matte texture but not for everyone.
There is a silver-lining to this story, so keep reading....
Amazing matte texture but not for everyone. I've tried a great many sunblocks (I have sensitive skin, prefer natural products) in the last 12 months and finally landed on the Tizo brand. This Tizo 3 Mineral sunscreen is spectacular in a lot of ways - the mousse lightweight texture is pretty amazing - like they found a way to make "whipped Titanium Dioxide". However, it is still "Titanium Dioxide" based and, for whatever reason, this seems to go deep within my pores and get nice in cozy -- resulting in an "enlarged pore" appearance on my face after about an hour of wearing it.
As I mentioned, there's a silver-lining and for me it was that I realized my Esthetician carried Tizo products and was surprised by my experience with Tizo sunscreen and hypothesized that it was due to the formula being a bit "too fine" as to settle into pores. She gave me some free samples of another Tizo sunscreen "TIZO Ultra Zinc Body & Face Sunscreen Tinted SPF 40" and I've tried it for the last two days and LOVED IT. It goes on and it's invisible - plus it doesn't give me enlarged pores.
As soon as the "TIZO Ultra Zinc Body & Face Sunscreen Tinted SPF 40" arrives from Amazon, I look forward to writing a glowing 5-star review!
