good for now :/
I was researching for a while, for a sunscreen that is in my budget and good for my sensitive skin. The reviews for this sunscreen were good overall, so I thought I was good to go. My acne isn't as bad while using this but my eyes...OH MY GOD...Throughout the entire day, my eyes burn/dry up? and I have to put water on them to lessen it. I have seen that my skin isn't breaking out as much and has brightened in some spots. Don't know if it was the combo of this and my moisturizer or just this. So idk, I would give it 2.5, but I can't, so three is okay.
