Let’s face it 6 best SPF for acne-prone skin 2024 UK; tried and tested with recommendations from a skin doctor

WEARING sunscreen in summer is essential to protect your skin from sun damage – and even if you suffer from acne or breakouts, you can’t afford to skip it.

The best SPF for acne-prone skin however will take the needs of your skin into account so look out for products that are lightweight and non-greasy.

The consistency should be smooth yet easily absorbed; avoid thick sunscreen that will take longer to sink in and may leave a greasy film on your skin. Non-comedogenic on the label means the SPF will not block your pores, helping reduce the chances of new breakouts and of existing pimples becoming worse.

Don’t make the mistake of missing out on sunscreen if you have acne. Some treatments and medications can leave your skin more prone to sun damage, while moisturisers, serums and masks containing retinol can also cause your skin to be more photosensitive.
