Frequently Asked Questions

    • Is this primer with spf hydrating or mattifying?

      Our Filtered Effects™ Protecting Primer locks in long-lasting hydration while also providing a beautiful satin matte finish that never looks flat or dry. Our formula is packed with banana flower extract, which will smooth and hydrate your skin to provide a perfect canvas for optimal makeup application. Even spirulina maxima extract will condition and nourish the skin to keep your complexion feeling hydrated and healthy. Your skin will love you for wearing it with or without makeup. 

    • What’s the difference between this primer with SPF and traditional sunscreen?

      Our Filtered Effects™ Protecting Primer was designed to create a perfect canvas for optimal makeup application and provide SPF protection. So, if you’ve ever asked yourself, “Can primer replace sunscreen?” When it comes to our formula, the answer is yes! It also helps extend the wear of makeup for up to 16 hours while smoothing the skin with a blurred, velvet-matte finish that looks freshly applied all day.

    • Will this leave a white cast or cause flashback?

      Our favorite thing about the Filtered Effects™ Protecting Makeup Primer with SPF is its translucent application. This is made possible by our dermatologist-tested chemical sunscreen SPF. The formula is even free of octinoxate + oxybenzone, two common sunscreen ingredients that can cause sensitivity and irritation. This also means that our primer with SPF abides by Hawaii’s Sunscreen Law. Every skin tone can now be protected and moisturized for all-day wear.

    • How is this different from the previous Sunproof™ 3-in-1 Invisible Priming Sunscreen SPF 37?

      Filtered Effects™ Protecting Primer SPF 37 may have a new name, but the formula did not change. You can still expect the same lightweight, satin matte finish that provides protection agains UVA + UVB rays.

    • What skin type is this suited for?

      Filtered Effects™ Protecting Primer SPF 37 is formulated for all skin types. Can primers with SPF help reduce fine lines and wrinkles? This lightweight gel primer is hydrating yet provides a velvet-matte finish that smooths, blurs, and protects skin from UVA + UVB rays that cause premature aging.

    • How does a primer with SPF compare to using separate sunscreen and primer?

      Have you wondered, “Do you put SPF primer on before or after moisturizer?” A primer with SPF should be the last step in your skincare routine. Apply it after your moisturizer has had a chance to sink into your skin.
