Sun Screen WIthout The Oil Slick: Sun Sense Daily Face SPF 30+

Thursday 11 October 2012



A few weeks ago, I wrote about actively trying to use sunscreen EVERY DAY, even the days I was staying inside. I think the best way to get into a routine is by doing it everyday, not just the days you need it. 

I think previously I've been bad with applying sunscreen because I had yet to find a good one that didn't make my skin feel greasy or make it break out. When you have combination or oily skin, sunscreen can be one of your biggest challenges. 

I have now found a few that I like that don't make me break out (Dermalogica "Solar Defense Booster SPF 30" and Ultraceuticals "Protective Daily Moisturiser Spf 30"), but today I'm bringing you a cheaper (in price, not quality) sunscreen for oily skin.

Sun Sense Daily Face Invisible Tint Finish has been my go to face suncreen for the last 3 weeks. It's a broad spectrum sunscreen that protects you from UVA and UVB rays.

It's perfect for oily skin, combination skin and acne prone skin because it's not only oil free but also a matte formula. No greasy or shiny faces happen with this gem. 

It also has a tint, which goes on sheer (or invisible) as the name suggests. It's the perfect everyday sunscreen. 

One thing that I love about this suncreen is that it's made  for the Australian conitions and is tested in Australia.

It's available in a 75gm tube ($14.99) or a 200ml bottle ($26.99).

Are you sun smart or a sunscreen sinner?

  1. I'm not very sun smart :( I do try to stay out of the sun though as I tan very fast and I actually prefer to stay (relatively) paler as it suits me more. I don't swim or go to the beach or generally even be outside unless I'm walking to the car/train station.

  2. I heard about the bus yesterday and I'd love to check it out but I'm a little scared.

    I use sunscreen everyday, even in winter because like you, it's easier to get into the habit of just doing it!

    I use invisible zinc face sunscreen as it doesn't leave me feeling greasy and doesn't easily sweat off... but i do let it sink in for a good 20 minutes before putting anything over it so it's not great if you're time poor.

  3. I use spf 15 every day and spf 30 when I'm actually going to be outside for any length of time :)

  5. I've learnt the hard way that my skin doesn't like chemical sunscreens and so will skip this one out. Personally, I think I'd prefer to go oily and use a physical sunscreen instead of no sunscreen at all, so I'll be using my Natural Instincts one. :)
