Which sunscreen under makeup on mature combo skin

IMG_9662.jpeg
I have combo skin, oily T-Zone, redness and @41 getting fine lines/wrinkle and from years of abuse I have sunspot. 

I know that neither of these are going to be miracle workers. 
Given all this info…anyone have suggestions on a good under makeup sunscreen? I was considering one of these but open others. 

Kiehl's Since 1851 Better Screen™ UV Serum SPF 50+ Facial Sunscreen with Collagen Peptide 0.5 oz / 15 ml 

 

Paula's Choice Favorite's Mini Kit 

Re: Which sunscreen under makeup on mature combo skin

@ChrissyAins1  I haven’t tried the Kiehls but Paula's Choice RESIST Youth-Extending Daily Hydrating Fluid SPF 50 2 oz/ 60 mL is one of the best spfs I have used. 

Re: Which sunscreen under makeup on mature combo skin

@ChrissyAins1 I’m a little bit older than you (turning 46 in a few months) and also have combo/oily with occasional redness. In the winter time, I use Sunday Riley ICE Ceramide Moisturizer with Vitamin F 1.7 oz/ 50 mL jn the evening, instead of my usual Tatcha The Water Cream Oil-Free Pore Minimizing Refillable Moisturizer. (I use Sunday Riley C.E.O. Afterglow Brightening Vitamin C Moisturizer year-round in the a.m.)

 

In summer, when I want more mattifying, I use Supergoop! Mineral Mattescreen SPF 40 Mineral Sunscreen 1.5 oz / 45 mL. It’s a great primer, too. In winter, I switch to OLEHENRIKSEN Banana Bright Mineral Face Sunscreen SPF 30 1.7 oz / 50 mL. It’s moisturizing without being heavy. 

If I’ve got more redness, I will apply a

drop or two of Dr. Jart+ Cicapair ™ Tiger Grass Camo Drops Color Corrector SPF 35 1 oz/ 30 mL.

 

Full disclosure: I don’t use foundation, but I use powder complexion products, mostly Hourglass Ambient Lighting Edit Unlocked Palette Jellyfish and Givenchy Prisme Libre Loose Setting and Finishing Powder 2 Satin Blanc. So, if you use more liquid-based products, this advice might not be relevant to you.
