YOu are better off with moisturizer. It is specially made.
Some moisturizers are also sunscreens. Some somescreens are also moisturizers. Look for one with both.

There are moisturizers with sunscreen in them. Some are very light and absorb fast in the skin. I don't like the greasy feel either. I use Bare Minerals for sunscreen. The others break me out. When I need moisturizer, I use Fructis. Its light and doesn't leave my skin oily. They have different formulas, so check them out. You might find exactly what you are looking for.

I guess so but most sunscreen is so strong that it will break you out even if it's not greasy...there are tons of moisturizers containing sunscreen available these days.

It wouldn't hurt your skin but realize that you are probably paying more for the sunscreen and applying chemicals on your skin that are not needed.
If you want to use up an old bottle....fine. After that get the right product.
Good luck

Sunscreens dun moisturise skin... Get a 2-in-1 if u are the lazy kind like me. They offer high SPF moisturisers in the market nowadays but quite ex so be warned.

I don't think sunscreens moisturize skin.

Buy a moisturiser that has a SPF15 built in, using suncream long term is not good for the skin. There are lots of decents creams on the market, Elemis, Liz Earle, Decleor, Gatineau all salon brands.

Get a lotion with sunscreen. Most of them have it in them now a days.

As long as you wash it off at night. Sunscreen has less oxygenating ability and can block pores.
