In previous reporting, Dr. Alexander Witkowski, MD, PhD, board-certified dermatologist and Melanoma Research Alliance dermatology advisor, recommended Tizo not just for its high-performance sun protection, but for the formulation’s anti-aging benefits, as well. It’s enriched with powerful antioxidants that can help neutralize free radicals and support overall skin health. The gentle formulation makes it well-suited for sensitive and post-procedure skin. He also pointed out that it has a matte finish that “wears comfortably under makeup.”
We all know how important it is to wear sunscreen year-round, but Witkowski further explained the increased need for daily SPF during the summer months. He pointed out that “UV radiation levels are significantly elevated...Broad-spectrum formulations are essential, as they shield the skin from both UVA rays, which contribute to premature aging and long-term skin damage and UVB rays, which cause sunburn and increase the risk of skin cancer.”
It’s water resistant and has a smooth, elegant finish that leaves skin feeling soft and silky. This brand claims this sunscreen doesn’t leave a white cast on most skin tones, though, like most mineral sunscreens, it’s likely to be more difficult to blend on more melanated skin.
