Tinted Sunscreen - what am I doing wrong?

[Timemyluckchanged]

I wear spf50 every day but in the summer it tends to look greasy and I hate having a shiny face. I’ve tried loads of different types but they all do it so I thought I’d try a tinted one to see if any better.

i bought the Nivea Invisible Serum tinted spf as it was on offer in Boots and I like the non tinted version. I’ve tried it on bare skin and moisturised skin but it is like the worst foundation ever. The actual sunscreen dries really quickly but the tinted bit won’t then blend it just sits on my skin looking very obvious and patchy. Am I doing something wrong I mean this is Nivea and they’ve been around a long time. Is it me or just a poor product.

i seem to be spending a fortune in the search for a good non greasy mattifying spf50 but I am shining like a very shiny thing in the meantime. I don’t want a glow ffs I’m not 20 with gorgeous skin anymore.

Murad oil and pore reducing factor 45 moisturiser is wonderful.

The garnier spf 50 over make up spray is really good and means you can do your face as per usual with your preferred products then just spray it over at the end

I recommend MISSHA all round sun block, it is a lovely texture for under makeup or bare face.

I like LaRoche Posay Anthelios. Looks like normal tinted moisturizer.

And you’ll be getting about spf 5

those sprays are terrible for protection. To get the stated spf you’d have to use so much you’d look ridiculous.
