What the Experts Said

Dr. Hadley King, a board-certified dermatologist in New York City, told NBC Select that powder sunscreen absorbs excess oil so it can serve a dual purpose as a finishing powder, extending the life of your makeup while providing sun protection. She also noted it’s portable and won’t leave a white residue on clothing. That’s exactly how we think about it: sun protection designed to fit the way you live.

Why Powder Works for Oily Skin

If you’ve struggled with sunscreen feeling greasy, heavy, or like it’s working against your skin instead of with it, powder changes the equation. It applies in 60 seconds, absorbs oil instead of adding to it, and is easy to reapply throughout the day without disturbing your makeup or your routine.

We make the mineral sunscreen you’ll wear every day and come back to every time you need to reapply. If you haven’t tried Brush On Block yet, this is a good time to.
