What is the best sunscreen for acne-prone skin?

People with acne prone skin should use only oil-free sunscreens. SPF 30 is the idea. Higher SPF's usually are more allergenic and do not provide any significant sun protective benefit. With a sunscreen that has SPF 50, 98% of the UV is blocked and with sunscreens with SPF 30, 97% of the UV is blocked. This difference is negligible. Another good feature to look for, in sunscreens is water resistance. Sunscreens that are water resistant, provide longer protection than regular sunscreens. They will stay on your skin while swimming in the sea or pool and will not be diluted by sweat. Some good examples for oil free sunscreens are Clinique Super City Sun Block Lotion SPF 25 https://amzn.to/2K1mLyV?utm_source=mdacne_blog&utm_medium=mdacne_blog&utm_campaign=what-is-the-best-sunscreen-for-acne-prone-skin?utm_source=mdacne_blog&utm_medium=mdacne_blog&utm_campaign=what-is-the-best-sunscreen-for-acne-prone-skin (more expensive) or Neutrogena Clear Face Sunblock https://amzn.to/2HWTJEd?utm_source=mdacne_blog&utm_medium=mdacne_blog&utm_campaign=what-is-the-best-sunscreen-for-acne-prone-skin?utm_source=mdacne_blog&utm_medium=mdacne_blog&utm_campaign=what-is-the-best-sunscreen-for-acne-prone-skin (more affordable).
