Introduction
Oily skin can be challenging, especially when trying to find skincare products that don’t clog pores, trigger breakouts, or make your face feel greasy. One of the most important yet overlooked skincare products for oily skin is sunscreen. Unfortunately, many people with oily skin skip sunscreen, thinking it will make their skin oilier. But here’s the truth: sun protection is essential for every skin type.
At Devriz Health Care, we understand the unique challenges faced by people with oily and acne-prone skin. That’s why we’ve curated and formulated sunscreen options that are lightweight, non-comedogenic, and highly effective for oily skin types.
In this guide, we’ll help you understand how to choose the best sunscreen for oily skin and what to look for in a product that works without making your skin greasy or shiny.
Why Oily Skin Needs Sunscreen Too
It’s a myth that people with oily skin don’t need sunscreen. Sun exposure can increase oil production, worsen acne, and accelerate premature aging.
Here’s why sunscreen is a must:
- Prevents hyperpigmentation & acne scars from darkening
- Shield your skin from UV-induced inflammation
- Reduces the risk of skin cancer
- Slows down aging signs like wrinkles and fine lines
The challenge? Finding a sunscreen that offers all these benefits without making your skin feel like an oil slick.
Common Problems People with Oily Skin Face with Sunscreen
Not all sunscreens are created equal, especially for oily skin types. Some common complaints include:
- Feels heavy or greasy
- Leaves a white cast
- Causes breakouts
- Makes skin look shiny
- Doesn’t sit well under makeup
Devriz Health Care has tackled each of these issues head-on with a line of sunscreens that are specifically formulated for Indian weather and oily skin textures.
How to Choose the Best Sunscreen for Oily Skin
Here are some key factors to consider when selecting a sunscreen for oily skin:
1. Oil-Free & Non-Comedogenic
Always look for labels that say "oil-free" and "non-comedogenic". This means the product won’t clog your pores or contribute to acne.
2. Gel or Fluid Texture
Cream-based sunscreens can feel too heavy. Opt for gel-based or fluid sunscreens for a light, breathable finish.
3. Matte Finish
Matte-finish sunscreens help absorb excess oil and keep your face looking shine-free throughout the day.
4. SPF 30 or Higher
An SPF of 30+ is ideal for Indian skin, offering broad-spectrum protection against UVA and UVB rays.
5. No White Cast
Choose sunscreens with invisible or microfine filters that don’t leave a ghost-like white film.

Top Ingredients to Look For
For oily skin, ingredients matter. Here’s what Devriz dermatologists recommend:
- Niacinamide – controls oil production & brightens skin
- Zinc Oxide or Titanium Dioxide – great for sensitive, oily skin
- Silica or Mattifying agents – absorb extra sebum
- Green Tea Extract – anti-inflammatory & soothing
- Hyaluronic Acid – hydrates without heaviness
