Sunscreen irritation

2021-09-01 16:12:08
I have tried Neutrogena spf 50 and Reequil Oxybenzone free sunscreen (non-comedogenic) for just once each. Every time after applying sunscreen, my face gets this weird burning sensation. Even today I applied reequil sunscreen and even after 9 hours I have slight burning sensation. Is that how it works? I'm a beginner and never used a sunscreen before. Just want to if this is right. If not, what sunscreen should I use?
