From my previous articles, I keep on telling that sunscreen is very helpful and important especially is you are using other skin products that contains alpha hydroxy acid (AHA). That is because it may increase the sensitivity of your skin to the sun. That is why use a sunscreen and limit sun exposure, as much as possible.

From the past days, I posted about Having oily face: What are the remedies? And The oil that makes my face emits a little extra shine. If you have not read these two articles yet, I suggest to read that articles first so that you will have an idea about the meaning and causes of oily skin.

These sunscreens that I will be discussing are good for oily and sensitive skin. But, let me just remind you that I am not an expert nor dermatologist. All these things I am telling here are just based on what I know and experienced as well as based on the things I found out through research. And also, this is not sponsored.

Final Thoughts:

Skin care routine is something that should not be seen as something that is not that really needed. We need to at least use a sunscreen to protect our skin from effect of the harmful uv rays of the sun. The sunscreens I have listed are just few of those sunscreens which you may use. Before using, you should know your type of skin first. Better yet, consult first a board-certified dermatologist so that you will know what product/s is/are good for your skin.
