I have super oily skin and have always had trouble with sunscreens making my face shiny - not an issue when I'm not wearing makeup, but definitely a problem when I AM wearing makeup and have to powder/blot every few hours. When I use this sunscreen, I apply powder over it (as I would for any sunscreen because my face is that oily) before putting on foundation, and it prevents my face from getting shiny for at least a good 8-10 hours - basically a full work day. It doesn't leave a weird chalky/dusty finish like some other 'mattifying' sunscreens either. It may feel a tiny bit drying, depending on the weather, but I haven't had problems with skin flaking or anything.

I've tried the other sunscreens in the A'PIEU Power Block line, and there's definitely a difference - the other ones are definitely not mattifying.

Summary: amazing for me in terms of oil control, has PA++++ (4 pluses!) and SPF50+. Really wish it came in a bigger size - I go through it so fast, even though I only use it on my face. I also wish it came in a tube that was easier to cut open - it's hard to get the last drops out.
