Dryness could be one of the reasons for face to look shining. Radiant face also looks shiny.Try lotion which gives a matte finish without oiliness. I have an acquaintance who recommended us to apply light weight sunblock moisturizer at home. You can try that.

anyway, do look out for ingredient in sunblock which will cause harm to the hormones. Read that the sheer sunblock in tube form from Neutrogena has this ingredient.

sun block should have protection against UVA and UVB right? i read from the net that UVC isn't actually harmful

must eat fruits. must eat lotsa lotsa Vit C. sunscreen alone not enough. If you want best result must have inner nutrition to work with what you apply.
if you spend a period of time eating more fruits than before, the effect (ie. the improvement of your skin's fairness) is visible.

Vitamins in Skin Care: How they Help
Experts have known for some time that vitamins affect the skin. Lack of vitamins can make skin lifeless, blotchy, dry, or oily. Healthy skin requires a variety of vitamins to keep it resilient; specifically, vitamins A, vitamin E, vitamin C, and vitamin D. Furthermore, vitamins E and C (found in citrus fruits and vegetables) are the simplest form of antioxidant. Antioxidants may help prevent skin damage from free radicals, a dangerously mutant form of oxygen that in large doses (from pollution, sunlight, etc..) can break through the membrane that protects the skin's cells and cause inflammation, visible lines and wrinkles, among other damage. Vitamin A may help prevent sun damage and vitamin C may accelerate skin healing. There is also some evidence that vitamin C may pass through the layers of skin and help heal tissue damaged by burn or injury. Vitamin D, absorbed through the skin's outer layers, may help heal the skin when applied topically, especially when combined with vitamin A. NuCelle® Skin Care has a line of Mandelic Marine Complex Products that contain all of those vitamins to keep your skin looking its best. For more information, click here.Vitamin Glossary
Vitamin A: The vitamin necessary for healthy skin. A serious lack or excess intake can cause dry, rough skin, among other problems. Synthetic vitamin A-like compounds called retinoids, such as tretinoin, applied directly to the skin have been used to treat acne and skin wrinkling and mottled pigmentation caused by chronic sun exposure. Used systemically, retinoids such as isotretinoin (Accutane) and etretinate treat acne and help to prevent skin cancer in those at very high risk.
Vitamin C: Also known by its chemical name (ascorbic acid), this vitamin plays an important role in healing wounds in the skin and in preventing scurvy. There is evidence that applying topical vitamin C will help "rejuvenate" the skin and make it appear younger by activating the oxidizing influences to which the skin is subjected.

Vitamin D:Vitamin D is formed in the body in part by interaction with sun light. Vitamin D is considered to be an antioxidant and anticarcinogen, and may play a role in skin pigmentation. Since it can be absorbed by the skin, applying this vitamin topically can have an effect on skin's health. Vitamin D is toxic in large amounts, and megadoses should be avoided. Sunbathing, however, will not result in an overdose.
Vitamin E:Vitamin E is an antioxidant. It can help prevent free radical damage. Based on the observation that skin damage caused by the sun and other environmental agents are induced by free radicals, there is the possibility that vitamin E may be effective in preventing skin damage. It is being used in more and more skin preparations as a way to fend off this damage.
