Bioderma Photoderm AKN Mat SPF30

Mattifying SPF30 Fluid for Oily, Blemish-Prone Skin

Bioderma Photoderm AKN Mat SPF30 is a face sunscreen formulated for combination to oily skin that breaks out easily. The fluid texture sits flat on the skin and is built around a mattifying system of Corn Starch Modified, Silica, Methyl Methacrylate Crosspolymer and PTFE that helps soak up excess surface oil, with a UV filter combination of Octocrylene, Avobenzone and Methylene Bis-Benzotriazolyl Tetramethylbutylphenol delivering broad-spectrum SPF30 protection against UVA and UVB.

Why Choose It?

• Broad-spectrum SPF30 protection against UVA and UVB rays via Octocrylene, Avobenzone and Methylene Bis-Benzotriazolyl Tetramethylbutylphenol
• Mattifying powder-and-polymer system (Corn Starch Modified, Silica, Methyl Methacrylate Crosspolymer, PTFE) helps absorb excess sebum and reduce visible shine
• Fluid texture sits flat on the skin and works as a final daytime step or as a base under makeup
• Targeted to combination to oily, blemish-prone skin that struggles with heavier sunscreen textures
• Lightweight Dicaprylyl Carbonate emollient base keeps the finish thin rather than greasy

Best For

Combination to oily skin that breaks out easily and needs daily SPF without the heavy, glossy finish of a typical sun fluid. The Corn Starch Modified / Silica / polymer mattifying system keeps the surface shine-free, which makes it a comfortable choice as a standalone last step in the morning routine or as a base under makeup. As with any sun fluid, pair it with a gentle daily face wash to keep pores clear at the end of the day.

Use as the final daytime step on cleansed skin. At the end of the day, remove with a Bioderma Sébium face cleanser for oily skin so the sunscreen layer and the day's sebum are fully lifted off before the evening routine.

• Shake the bottle gently before each use.
• Apply a generous amount evenly across the face and neck on cleansed, dry skin, before any sun exposure.
• Use either alone as the last daytime step or after your usual moisturiser.
• Allow a minute or two to set down before layering makeup on top, if used as a base.
• Reapply after sweating, swimming or towelling off, and at regular intervals during prolonged sun exposure.

Tips

• For makeup days, let the fluid set for a moment so the matte powder system has time to grip the skin before foundation.
• Avoid contact with fabrics directly after application — sun fluids of this type can mark light-coloured textiles.
• Sun protection is one layer of a routine, not a substitute for shade and protective clothing during peak UV hours.
