Sunscreen formula for oily skin (outdoor use) and adding beneficial ingredients

Asked by: mayberich11 On: June 04, 2015 Product Type: Cosmetics

Question

I am looking for a sunscreen formula from MySkinRecipes that is suitable for:

  • Oily skin with minor clogged pores
  • Outdoor use (hot environment, not direct sun exposure)
  • Use on both the face and body

I would also like to know if it is possible to add beneficial ingredients such as whitening and anti-aging agents to a sunscreen formula.

Answer

Hello,

I understand you are looking for sunscreen formulas from MySkinRecipes suitable for oily skin with minor clogged pores, for outdoor use (not direct sun but hot), and for both face and body.

As my system cannot directly access and search the MySkinRecipes formula database based on your specific criteria, I cannot recommend specific formula names to you.

However, I recommend you visit the MySkinRecipes Recipe Center as previously suggested by the staff. On that page, you can view the details of each formula, which often include information on which skin type the formula is suitable for (e.g., oily skin), which body part it is intended for (face/body), and the level of sun protection (SPF/PA). This information should help you choose a formula that meets your needs.

Regarding your original question about adding beneficial ingredients (whitening/anti-aging) to sunscreen, as the staff mentioned, this is possible for sunscreens intended for daily/indoor use that do not require special water resistance or long-lasting properties. However, for heavy-duty outdoor sunscreens that prioritize high protection and durability, adding a large amount of beneficial ingredients may not be suitable as it could affect the texture and performance of the sunscreen.

I hope this information helps you choose a suitable sunscreen formula.
