I have combo/oily skin that is sadly sensitive. I cannot be under direct sunlight lest I want a rash, and I cannot use conventional chemical sunblocks...lest I want a rash. Currently I'm using Neutrogena's Sensitive Skin SPF30 with titanium dioxide on my body, but boy, this isn't a great product for a face with oily t-zone. For that I opt for this Canadian brand - Marcelle's Protective Block SPF25 in cream form (50ml). The same product is available in lotion form which comes in a 150ml(?) bottle, but the cream version is oil-free and probably is geared for the face. This product contains 7.75% micronized titanium dioxide, and 1.95% zinc oxide. It blends easily into skin and leaves no noticeable white cast. It does not leave a matte finish - nor a greasy one for that matter. Instead it just kind of disappears. Half a day later my face isn't any more oily than usual. A week's worth of usage and no irritation or breakout whatsoever. This product is scent-free which is another plus. The search for a great sunblock is over for now, I'd say.
