Caring for Skin hat Is the Best Sunscreen for Oily Skin?
I'm Kelli. I'm an aesthetician and makeup artist at Ulta Salon & Cosmetics, and I'm going to talk to you a little bit, about the best sunscreens for oily skin. First thing, you want to pick one that's absolutely oil-free. It doesn't have any mineral oil in it, or anything like that.You definitely want to find one that's going to be a very light texture, but still has a high SPF, and maybe has some oil absorbing properties to it, as well. This is one I really like. It's by Dermalogica. It's an oil-free matte block, so you can see, I'm just going to put a little bit, on the back of my hand, here. It's very, very lightweight, and it goes into the skin really easily. It basically just soaks right into the skin. This is actually a moisturizer as well, so it's going to give you some hydrating properties. One thing with oily skin, many oily skins are terrified to put a moisturizer on their face, because they feel like it's going to contribute to the oiliness factor, but basically, what happens if you're not balancing that oil and water ratio, with a really good hydrater, you're actually basically asking your skin to produce more oil, which in turn, is just going to lead to a vicious cycle, so you can see that sunscreen dries down to a completely matte finish, and this is also going to help to absorb oil for me, throughout the day, so that's one of the best sunscreens for an oily skin.
