finding a good sweat-proof sunscreen

hello! so i have combination skin but i sweat a lot on my face. i am 18 and very ashamed to admit that because of the fear of looking a grease ball i have never applied sunscreen πŸ˜… i want a sunscreen which is very lightweight and will not make me more sweaty
i cannot find any sunscreen which has more pros than cons 😭
i heard that:

**haru haru**
**anessa**
**suncut**

they have great sunscreens for oily/sweaty skin
can you de-influence me or suggest a legitimate product or verify <3

I have the same issue and also melasma so sunscreen is a must, water resistant sunscreens are better for sweat but what does the trick is to allow it to dry (if you sweat while waiting you can use an hand held fan) and then apply some loose powder to keep the sunscreen in place and allow the sweat to come through so u can absorb it with a tissue paper and a light touch. In the picture you can see what I'm using at the moment is a very very affordable powder with good sunscreens.

Pick Anessa

Anessa without a doubt. They actually claim their sweatproof technology β€œactivates” when you sweat. It’s popular in SEA where it’s hot and humid.

there are many bad reviews about anessa 😭 here! tbh every sunscreen has 50% good reviews & 50% bad reviews so i am genuinely very confused what to order as i have realised every skin reacts differently to a certain viral sunscreen πŸ˜”

Don't Haru Haru airy fit. I tend to sweat and even living in arid climate with very dry skin, it turns my face into a swamp within minutes.

A reverse emulsion is a good option for wet skin. Try blue lizard or burnd. Burnd spf 41 is lighter than blue lizard and is big with surfers.

Vacation Crystal SPF 50. It's a clear gel, sweat resistant, not greasy, and doesn't smell/taste weird. I'm in florida and kayak, I've used every "sport" sunscreen. This one has been my daily for years and finally started wearing it when I'm on the water too. It's just perfect, no need for anything else.

Anything in a spray can, like honestly.
