Affordable Matte Mineral Sunscreen?
Hi everyone :) I'm looking for a mineral sunscreen available in the US that will work for oily, sensitive, acne prone skin that is not more than $10 per fluid ounce.
I have been using Australian Gold tinted mineral sunscreen for the past 9 months, and I thought it was my HG since it's affordable at $19 for 1.7 oz, my skin agrees with it, and I've never had a sunburn while wearing it. However, I started to notice more signs of premature aging and sun damage (forehead lines and freckles) after about 3 months using it. The sunscreen is SPF50, so I suspect the issue might be a low PA - given that the active ingredients are 4% titanium dioxide and 4% zinc oxide.
Other sunscreens I have enjoyed include the Avene compact tinted mineral and La Roche Posay light fluid mineral. These don't feel greasy, make me shiny, or cause breakouts for me. The problem is, they are not within my current budget at $44 for .3 oz and $40 for 1.7 oz.
I am open to tinted or non-tinted mineral sunscreens. My biggest concern is avoiding breakouts and feeling greasy. Thank you in advance!
