I have very oily, acne-prone skin and am very, VERY pale. Pretty much every sunscreen I have tried makes my skin look even oilier and/or ghostly.
Is there anything out there that helps mattify, without clogging pores or having a whitish film?
I need spf 50 or higher, no parabens, fragrance, talc or animal-testing.
P.S. - I do not use foundation or powders. Just primer and sunscreen.

Well I'm not really sure why you need 50+ SPF. I'm pretty pale as well and EXTREMELY oily and have had a very zoos run with my Clinique ever better SPF 40.
Spf's do tend to be shinny but this one is the least shinny I've tried.
I do not know weather it is cruelty free or not (shame on me😩😩😩) bit it's a very good product.

I'm not really sure if you'll find SPF 50 or not. In my opinion, high spfs like that aren't what you would like to think, I would focus more on reapplication every two hours vs trying to find a high spf.
The brand is Devita

The above link explains in depth why a SPF of 50 or higher shouldn't be a main concern of sunscreen.
