Very high sun protection that keeps oily skin matte
Eucerin Sun Protection Oil Control Dry Touch Gel-Cream SPF50+ is a daily face sunscreen for oily and blemish-prone skin. UVA and UVB filters give very high protection, while licochalcone A and glycyrrhetinic acid help defend the skin against visible light and oxidative stress. L-carnitine and oil-absorbing powders help control sebum and keep shine away for up to 8 hours. In a clinical study, 90% of users found their skin less oily and 86% said it did not clog their pores.
The texture
A very light gel-cream that absorbs in seconds and leaves a dry-touch, matte finish. It works well as a makeup base, is resistant to water and sweat, and has no added fragrance.
Who it suits
- Oily and combination skin
- Blemish-prone skin that needs a non-comedogenic SPF
- Hot, humid days and city use under makeup
Worth knowing before you buy: it contains alcohol, which gives the fast-drying matte feel but may sting very dry or irritated skin.
