i donāt react to much at all, although proactiv dried my skin to hell and back when i used it once as a preteen. not terribly fond of essential oils and fragrance, but iām usually fine with them if theyāre low on the ingredients list.
i tend to buy products based on whichever is currently the best deal. this inevitably leads to me trying tons of different products (especially sunscreens), hence the obscene amount of āalternatingā products in some of my routines.
ā¦ok, my ADHD probably plays a role in this as well

my skin may be pretty ānormalā, but i struggled with acne for a long time. i eventually started accutane, which took some time to work, but my skin eventually cleared up. i never struggle with acne anymore, apart from the occasional small pimple that goes away after a couple of days.
much of my post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation has faded away, but iām still working on achieving the clearest skin i can possibly have.

i tried this sunscreen for the first time right before the new year, and iām already on my third tube. the formula is in between thick and thin; not watery like some essence-type sunscreens, but certainly not thick & greasy like banana boat or coppertone, either.
this sunscreen definitely takes a bit of time to fully absorb into the skin. iād pin this on the lack of denatured alcohol/ethanol in the formulation. alcohol denat. and ethanol can potentially be problematic for some skin types, and thereās conflicting data on the harm that they may or may not cause. if you donāt have concerns about those ingredients and would prefer faster sunscreen application, you may prefer a sunscreen with one of those ingredients. i personally donāt mind letting this sunscreen absorb fully.
this sunscreen wears well under makeup; it doesnāt pill or make foundation look patchy.
