Sunscreen that doesn’t make you shiny

Can anyone recommend a good facial suncreen to wear underneath foundation that doesn’t make your face shiny and cause breakouts.
I have tried the Sothy’s tinted suncreen and it still made me break ou.

    For a cheap lovely alternative, go for Nivea SPF30+ [it`s in a blue bottle].

    It may sound thick and yucky but its the lightest most freshest feeling sunblock ive ever used.

    beautybabe i was actually told by a pharmacist that banana boat is the worst of the worst! Kiehl`s face sunscreen is amazing. Not at all greasy. i agree with elmo on mecca save face sunscreen as well. definitely worth the money.

    I like banana boat sunscreen but then again i have not tried out too many brands of sunscreen

    I`m a fan of dermalogica`s matte sunblock, a little goes a long way too

    That one sounds pretty good beauty addict – good price! Also I like the sound of Elmo`s one Mecca`s Save Face Sunscreen which stays matte! I want to try that one.

    I tend to get a shiny forehead and the best so far that I`ve tried for staying the least shiny is the Olay Complete 30+ for Sensitive Skin. There are two varieties in this and one is just normal and I find it goes really, really shiny on me but this` Sensitive` variety (has a purple bit on the front of the bottle) is the least oiliest 30+ facial cream I`ve tried – the other one I use on my chest so I don`t waste it and my chest absorbs it really well. I`m keen to try the Mecca one though.

    Nivea Age Defence Sunscreen for the Face, around $8. This is fantastic, doesnt leave a white cast/leave your skin shiny or greasy.

    Any oil free suncreens should do the trick. I have a sunscreen in my moisturer and my skin doesn`t go shiny…I use the ecotanicals with sunscreen
