Aveeno Positively Mineral Sensitive Skin Sunscreen - SPF 50 25 ingredients
Product review:
Way too much white cast but this one is better than the Protect + Hydrate Sunscreen Broad Spectrum Sunscreen from Aveeno. Also, it breaks me out and gives me whiteheads. and Irritates my eczema so I had to stop using it.
My skin:
Eczmea on the forehead, fungal acne, milia, hyperpigmentation, dark spots, and normal to combination skin.
I am one of the whitest caucasians probably in the world besides people with albinism. This sunscreen made me look like I was cosplaying as Casper the ghost. Do not recommend lol

It a nice lightweight moisturizer, but it broke me out.
Lightweight and very nice texture, hydrating but on my cheeks I broke out from using it 🥲
