La Roche-Posay Anthelios Invisible Fluid Facial Sunscreen SPF50+ 23 ingredients
I used this sunscreen for a long time before realizing it wasn’t fungal acne safe, which made it unsuitable for my skin. Additionally, I didn’t like how it felt—it was too harsh and didn’t feel smooth. For these reasons, I decided to stop using it.
it was nice the first few times i used it, then all of a sudden it started pilling? i don’t know what the deal is there.. super hard to blend too
