I'm a guy who has pale, oily skin. I have to exfoliate regularly and my skin is generally oily about an hour after washing it. However, I am almost as pale as this box in which I'm writing this text. Because of this, I need sunscreen. I've been using a Neutrogena moisturizer with SPF 50, but even though it is noncomedogenic, it makes my skin very oily and clogs up my pores.

Does anyone else have a similar problem? Have you found something that works? Any advice is great. Thanks.
 
Some "sports" sunscreens are prepared in an alcohol/gel base - they are what i use, not greasy, wont block pores.
 
I have the same problem, and while in the winter I can use Eucerin's daily moisturizer with SPF 30 for sensitive skin, I need something extra light for summer. I'm thinking of trying Peter Thomas Roth's sunscreen, as I've heard it is oil-free and mattifying. It's more $$ than a drugstore one, but if it works well, it's worth it.
