I am very sad. My dermatologist advised me to use this sunscreen and it caused pimples under my eyes. I don't like it. It makes my skin very oily and burns my eyes. Its consistency is heavy on oily skin but it doesn't cause redness on the face. After a while, the face becomes very dry if I go out in the sun. My skin is oily and flaky. Very bad.
