Beauty Hack: Sunscreen without the Oily Face

This is sponsored post with Olay Sun Face Sunscreen Shine Control. All opinions are my own. Thanks for supporting brands that make ModlyChic possible.

This year I vowed to be more diligent about my use of sunscreen, especially on my face. Honestly, before this point I used sunscreen only sparingly. I would put on a little in the morning if I was going to be outside all day in the direct sun, but other than that I didn’t bother. But as I age, I know one of the best ways to protect my skin and keep it looking fresh and vibrant is to use SPF daily!

But… Why is it so oily???

I already have an oily face, and have a hard time using products that other people love because it makes my oily face look all the more greasy! Previously, when I would use sunscreen or even SPF containing products, I knew I would have to be content with an oily looking face all day.

But now, Olay has changed the game with their Olay Sun Face Sunscreen + Shine Control. This pretty little bottle contains SPF 35 and really does control the shine! It goes on easily - a little goes a long way. And, most importantly for me, it doesn’t leave me looking oily all day long. If you have ever tried other face sunscreens, you know how difficult it is to find a product that does this!

The Olay Sun Face Sunscreen + Shine Control provides a beautiful matte finish and leaves my skin feeling smooth and soft. I’ve started using this as my primer in the mornings before I go about my normal makeup routine. Plus, the sunscreen really works. I went hiking a couple days ago and didn’t burn at all. I didn’t even get a little rosy on my nose - which is usually the first place to go red.

While it might be a little thing, this product also doesn’t smell like sunscreen. Don’t get me wrong, when heading to the beach, I love the smell of sunscreen and all the childhood memories it brings to mind. But I don’t want that smell following me around all day as I run to meetings and events!
