BEST Non-Oily/Comedogenic Sunscreens: 3 Products Compared

There are not many non-greasy sunscreens on the market, which is why I have been looking for the perfect product for quite a while. I have oily/combination skin so I'm always searching for non-oily and non-comedogenic products for my face. This is a review on 3 such products.



1) Solait SPF 50 Mattifying Face Sun Fluid, Superdrug

Advantages
This product has a high SPF which is great. Also, it is small (50 ml) so you can easily bring it with you when travelling. In addition, it does not dry out my skin. Plus, it has not been tested on animals. Finally, the price is good (around £3).

Disadvantages
This product does not feel as light as it claims. In fact, the texture of the cream is quite heavy. Also, I did not think it was particularly mattifying.

2) La Roche-Posay Anthelios XL Extreme Face Fluid SPF 50

Advantages
This product is perfume- and paraben-free, water resistant and non-comedogenic. In addition, it offers a high SPF protection. Finally, it is even suitable for the most sensitive skin.

Disadvantages
The disadvantage is that this product feels a bit too heavy on my skin. Also, the price is too high for what you get (£16.50 for only 50 ml).

3) Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Liquid Sunscreen SPF 70

Advantages
This product is amazing - I have finally found THE product for my skin. You barely feel you have cream on your face, this lightweight formula was exactly what I was looking for. It absorbs instantly and provides a non-shiny finish. Also, it offers high SPF protection. Finally, it is waterproof, sweatproof, non-comedogenic, oil-free and PABA free.

Disadvantages
The only downside is the price: $12.49 for 40ml is more on the expensive side, however I believe that this quality product is worth the price.
