Is it possible for a sunscreen to cause closed comedones or breakouts?

My mom recently talked me into buying a new sunscreen that is more organic/clean. It’s the SPF 30 Sport Sunscreen by Juice Beauty. I thought the product was working well, but then my forehead started breaking out. I’m not a skincare expert by any means, but they just look like closed comedones. I’m trying to figure out whether I should continue using the sunscreen until my skin gets used to the formula or if I should stop before things get worse. Any help would be so appreciated!

Yes. It can. If this already have side effects better you stop and healed them first. Or back to your previous sunscreen. Not everything that organic will suitable for skin.

Yes it can! Especially if it contains sentisizing ingredients or there is a certain ingredient in it that you are allergic to.

I think you should had stop it to avoid breakout continuosly. The sunscreen may contain the ingredient that make your skin allergy or sensitive to your skin. For better advice, look for a dermatologist appointment 😬

Yes. Any products is possible to cause breakout. If in this case, it’s better to discontinue using that sunscreen ☺️☺️

There maybe something in the sunscreen you are allergic too or that can be the cause of the breakout. This is why when i get a new product i test a patch of my skin for like a week before i do full coverage of anything on my face. Its happened to me before and thats a hard lesson to learn and i now try to avoid at all costs. I hope it clears up.
