It depends which one you use. I've noticed the Garnier sunscreens tend to make the skin pretty oily.

I've found that Clarins, Lancaster and Sun Sense, leave no white residue or make the skin 'oily'.

Sun Sense should start paying me sigh

Have you tried Neutrogena Sheer dry touch?

i'm sure they make my skin go darker, when i wash my face my skin goes back to a normal colour. then again london is a dirty city!

I had the same problem for many many years till i found a good sunscreen by Jan Marini. I am sure other department store brands are also good but this is the one i tried and love so far. It totally absorbs in the skin.

The Netrogena Oil Free Mositurizer doesn't amke your face oily. Even the Walgreens spar on one (if you are in USA) doesn't make your face oily.

Look for a makeup primer that has sunblock, as it can help set makeup and wont get as oily compared to only using a sunscreen lotion...Clinique's Super City Block Oil-Free Daily Face Protector SPF 40 is an option...theres a couple other brands that I cant recall atm
