Sunscreen making me break out
I have been using neutrogena sunscreen for awhile now. I ran out the the sunscreen and didn't use it for like a week. And now when I use the same neutrogena sunscreen it is making me break out. I do have acne prone skin, and combination skin. What sunscreen would be best?

Treatment of break out depends on the grade..Acne or pimples... Due to hormonal changes..Oily skin causes it...Common in adolescent age...May occur in adults also.. Food like Oily foods, ice cream, chocolate and sweets increase it.. Treatment depends on the grade of pimples or acne..So, please send photos by direct online consultation as it's a must to see which grade of pimples or acne for accurate diagnosis and treatment.

Hi, use a water base sunscreen which is broad spectrum and non-comedogenic, meaning it will not cause pimples
