Well Sunscreen can make the skin very very greasy so that is understandable. Maybe you should go with what the derm tells you and tell us how it goes... Im not sure /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> I dont have super oily skin so I dont know much what to say.

I know, but i was thinking there so many different formulas of sunscreen out there ... i'm sure there's one for ppl w/greasy skin :icon_scratch: i could be wrong though . And by sunscreen , i mean the facial moisturizers w/spf. Like ... dove. .. or olay ..

Ooooh sorry I didnt know olay made one. Kim are you sure you arent just thinking of a moisturizer. If you could post a link that would help alot thanks /emoticons/[email protected] 2x" width="20" height="20" /> I would also like to see.

I agree, that is strange, but I'm sure that there is a reason.

i know that you've been wanting a more aggressive peel (we chatted about it in the mama lotion thread). good idea to seek out a dermatologist! keep us posted on your results! good luck, mouna!

Is it possible the Revlon foundation has SPF?

I use Revlon Colorstay wiht SPF 6 and a cocealor with SPF 20.

The clindamycin is a topical antibiotic that will help prevent acne.

Benzyl peroxide is also effective in controlling acne.

yeah the foundation has spf 4 in it she said my skin is so oily she wants the oil to lessen up abit then she will tell me to use one i think she will end up telling me to use neostarta sunscreen because thats what she has in her office anyway my redness of my pimples has gone down abit butt i dont no are all benzyl peroxide products the same because my friend said benzac is the best but she prescribed something else called brexoyl i think thats what its called
