SPF for oily skin!

Jan 24, 2012

Hello ladies! I am in dire need of a good SPF to use daily. I have oily and acne prone skin. I used to wear bare minerals makeup every day which has SPF 15 in it, but I have recently been trying new foundations or not wearing makeup but would still like to wear SPF. I recently bought MAC prep and prime spf 50 but I think it broke me out. I loved how it did not add another step into my routine because I already primed my face, but added SPF. Please help!

Hi Jessica!

I had a difficult time finding SPF for my oily skin too. But then I found Somme Institute Double Defense with SPF 30+. I love it and use it everyday! It's light weight and it absorbs into my skin. I get really oily in my T zone and with this spf moisturizer and my smashbox foundation primer...it's perfect for my skin.

Hope this helps!

This is a korean product, but I've been using the Missha Sunmilk with SPF 50 PA+++ and I've been loving it! It kind of reminds me of the one from Dior.

Hi Jessica!

Since you mentioned that you have oily and acne prone skin, have you considered using a regimen that contains a daily SPF? UNBLEMISH by Rodan + Fields is designed for acne and post-acne marks...meaning it clears and calms your skin and also fades the spots left behind from the acne. The regimen also contains an SPF 20 that controls oiliness as it protects against UV rays that intensify post-acne marks and uneven skin tone.

Good luck...hope this helps :)

I use Eco Logical sunscreen for my oily skin and it's the best I've found so far. It is all natural and suited for sensitive skin and moisturizes great (a lot of people don't realize their oily skin needs moisture! Oily skin tends to over-produce when it's dehydrated) I got it at a local boutique, but here's the website http://www.summerforkids.com/Sunscreen-Eco-baby-natural/ I have the body sunscreen and use it on my face (it's the same formula, just in a bigger tube)
