    Default Good sunscreen for acne prone/oily skin?

    Can anyone recommend a good sunscreen that won't break me out? I have very fair, very sensitive skin that is prone to breakout's. I'm on anti-biotics so I really need a good sunscreen for the extra protection. I'm afraid of using one because they always break me out and make my skin look all shiny.

    I have heard that Shieseido has a good one and I also saw one by Peter thomas Roth that was a powder that you just brushed over your skin, kind of like bare minerals, a powder sunscreen would be really convenient and help with shine. Not sure if it would offer the same protection as a cream though. Anyone tried it or know of another brush on sunscreen? Or any kind you would recommend for that matter?

    Thanks!!
