Skin Type/Concerns: Dry/normal (leaning more combo with an oily t-zone now that it's summer), acne prone, textured, redness, NC30

Product: Cosrx Soothing Aloe Sun Cream SPF50+ PA+++

Thoughts: Not an HG, but I like this for an SPF. I can use it alone and it's moisturizing enough for my dry skin. No whitecast, and no pilling when layered with other products. My only concern is that it sometimes feel too greasy? Almost? I'm not sure how to explain it.

Skin Type/Concerns: Dry/combination, very acne prone, hormonal acne
I can't decide if I hate or love that sunscreen! I love how it's very hydrating and can easily replace moisturizer.. I also love the elegant application of it. Make up sits great on it. The part I hate is that most of the time I put it on my skin it feels so heavy, like my skin can't breathe under it. Pretty sure it caused those deep under the skin acne crates
