2. If You Have Oily or Acne-Prone Skin
Oily and acne-prone skin types require sunscreen that won’t clog pores or make your skin more oily. The key is to choose a non comedogenic, oil free formula that can protect your skin without adding extra shine or contributing to breakouts. The good news is, the entire Sunny range is Dermatologist approved, non comedogenic and oil free!

3. If You Have Dry Skin
Dry skin needs extra hydration, and a good sunscreen should provide moisture without feeling heavy or greasy. You want something to help maintain moisture and keep your skin soft and smooth, while also protecting it from the sun.
Look For:
Creamy Textures: These provide long-lasting moisture and ensure your skin doesn’t dry out throughout the day.
Recommended Product:
Sunny Cream SPF 60 Face Lotion is a perfect choice for dry skin. It’s packed with nourishing ingredients and has a rich, dreamy finish to deeply hydrate while protecting your skin from UV rays. It also has an invisible finish and layers seamlessly under makeup.
4. If You Have Combination Skin
Combination skin can be tricky to manage, as different areas of your face can have different needs. You might have an oily T-zone but dry or normal skin on the cheeks. For combination skin, choose a sunscreen that is lightweight and able to provide hydration without making the oily parts of your face greasy. You could choose anything from the Sunny face range, but we’ve recommended something for you below.
Look For:
Lightweight, Non Greasy Formulas: A sunscreen that hydrates without making your T-zone shiny.

Sunny Drops SPF 60 Face Serum is great for combination skin as it offers lightweight hydration that helps balance your skin while still providing high quality sun protection.
Sunny Spritz SPF 60 Face Mist is another great option – it's perfect to pack in your bag to top-up throughout the day, even over makeup.
A few extra things to consider:
Test Before Full Application: If you’re unsure how your skin will react, do a patch test by applying to a small area of your face or neck before applying it all over.
Seek Advice: Chat to a doctor or Dermatologist if you’re ever unsure whether you can use a product
Reapply Regularly: Reapply every two hours, or more often after sweating, swimming or towel drying.
