SPF for face - acne prone

30 replies

User1511 · 04/03/2021 23:04

I am yet to find a suitable spf for my face. I have acne prone skin which depending on how it’s feeling, can be oily or dry 🤷🏻‍♀️ I have quite a pink tone and mild rosacea.

All the spf I’ve used in the past feels really greasy and makes me shiny.

Any recommendations?

I like Ultrasun - use it instead of moisturiser. Non greasy, doesn't pill under make up

Does anyone use the sunscreens suggested as a base for foundation? I think sunscreen and moisturiser would be too much for my skin.

I use the Heliocare one mentioned above instead of a moisturiser and it seems fine. Clinique City Block is also really good as a moisturiser/base as well.

I like the Vichy blemish control one.

Paula's Choice have a range aimed at acne-prone skin including a spf 50 moisturizer which is light and apparently non comedogenic - seems to work for me.
