Best oil-free SPF moisturizer (not foundation)

I have a few clients who really don't like how the Image Matte Moisturizer feels on their oily skin. I've heard it's too sticky, it made them more oily, etc.

Can anyone recommend a really great SPF 15 or higher non-comedogenic/oil free moisturizer out there?

Yes, I agree.  I used to love the Image Organic SPF, but they discontinued it =( and I don't like their new formulations as much.  I actually found their Hydrating Moisturizer less heavy feeling than the Matte one, which was bizarre.  Jan Marini has a very nice SPF 33, you feel like you have nothing on.  But it's pricy- retails $48 for 2 oz.  It comes in tinted and non-tinted versions (I prefer non-tinted).  You can find it under the "Antioxidant" section on their website.

I am not sure about SPF with moisturizer but Glo makes a really nice oil free spf 40 and the skin scripts spf is really nice as well.  Glo also makes a moisturizer with SPF but I don't like it as much as I love their OIL free spf.  I thought I had heard somewhere that they were doing away with the Moisturizers with SPF because the SPF isn't as effective...or is that SPF in makeup?  I could be confused.

Thank you so much for the tips! Actually, I did like the GLO oil free when I had tried it. It is called Oil Emulsion by any chance? Bummed there used to be an Ormedic moisturizer. Really don't like the Matte one.

The Oil Control Emulsion is the moisturizer for combo/oily skin which I LOVE...but the Oil Free SPF is a different product.  I use them together.

Is it the SPF 40 Oil Free Glo moisturizer then? Looking for myself and a few clients that have asked.

no just a sunblock...but they do have a combo SPF moisturizer.

I will check to see if I have a sample of it and if so I will send it to you.  You may be able to contact glo for a sample but they are kinda stingy with samples...you can't even buy samples, you earn them with a certain amount of product you order.  I hate that about them!!

Woa that is weird! At least with Image you can buy 10 pack samples, and our rep gives us stuff anyway. IF you have a sample, I'd love to try it. Thanks for sending me the link, Sheila!

I hear ya on the Image sunscreens. I can't find one that works! I use Tizo Sunscreen and it is fabulous! Finally an SPF that isn't white, heavy and sticky! It is like a mousse that also comes tinted. I like the tinted because I can wear it without putting on foundation some days. They are at tradeshows, and that's where I've bought it- I don't know if they have reps or where they are located...but it is amazing!!!

Thank you! I've actually heard of it and received samples a while back. Although, I don't really recall how the product felt. I'll have to keep my eyes peeled for this one.

I have just started using "Daily Eclipse" SPF 30 from DermaMed Solutions... Same micronized Zinc and Titanium Dioxide that most other companies are using, better price. Oil Free and even ok to use post IPL, Micro or peel...
