Finding the right sunscreen can be tricky, especially for combination or oily skin.

After realizing the importance of SPF, even for indoor study days, I started searching for sunscreens that protect without feeling heavy or greasy.

Here are my top picks based on personal experience—all SPF 50+ and perfect for different skin needs!

1. Beauty of Joseon Relief Sun

This is my top choice for everyday wear. It's lightweight, dewy, and moisturizing with zero white cast. I love that it doesn't feel tacky or make my face oilier throughout the day, even in humid conditions. While some reviews mention it may not suit very oily or sensitive skin, it works well for combination skin, especially in drier weather. Recently, I picked it up on TikTok Shop for around $24 for two, which feels super affordable.

2. Biore UV Aqua Rich Watery Essence

This sunscreen has a gel-like, watery texture that feels more like a serum than a lotion. It leaves no white cast and won't clog pores, which is ideal for those who prefer lightweight formulas. It has a subtle fresh scent that fades quickly. On the downside, it can get greasy after a few hours, especially in hot, sunny climates like Singapore. It's widely available at Watsons, Guardian, or online for about $11+.

3. Isntree Hyaluronic Acid Watery Sun Gel

This option comes with a narrow dispensing tip, making precise application easy. It's lightweight, hydrating, and leaves a dewy finish. Personally, it feels a bit too dewy for my combination skin, especially when I sweat, which can make it feel greasy. However, it pairs nicely under matte makeup to create a balanced, fresh look.

These three sunscreens offer different textures and finishes to suit varying skin types and climates. Choosing the right one depends on your skin's needs and personal preference, but all provide excellent sun protection while keeping your skin comfortable!
