Yes. My problem exactly. This lotion used to be great but they changed the formula a couple years ago and now I can't use it at all- causes terrible breakouts and a burning, red rash. You may be reacting to one of the chemical sunscreens in it (at least that's what my problem is) eg avobenzone or oxybenzone. Either way I'd advise returning it since it will only get worse if you continue using it.

No, and I have sensitive skin. It's just about the only lotion that I can use.

If the product you are using has sun block in it - that is exactly what happened to me. I have used Oil of Olay for 30 years - when they started adding sun block I couldn't wear it anymore. One day I found a bottle of the ORIGINAL - no added block and it's just fine. No problems. I would tell the company to refund your money.

I have been using Olay for more than 10 years and never had a skin reaction

I have extremely sensitive, reactive, active prone skin and this did not bother me. I blink and break out! I mix this in with my moisture cream and haven't had any problems.

no, I didn't have any problem, I love it. I am on my second bottle right now. I hope I answered your questions. You might want to scrub your face before using this item.

I think it depends on your skin, but I have very sensitive skin and used a moisturizer with it. Hope this helps.

I had really good luck with this product, although I've only used the peel pads. I've broken out for the first couple weeks starting other products. I think sometimes your skin just needs time to adjust. Good luck!

It made my face red, sticky, and itchy. I didn't notice that it made my face shiny, because I stopped using after only one use.

Nothing worked for my 21 year old face. I have oily skin but it's also really sensitive. The intellishade almost feels like a layer of protection on your face all day.

I have sensitive, combination skin. I have not tried the rose version. But, I am very happy with this product. I have been using it for about 6 weeks. I have not had any break outs or sensitivities.

Yes but it was taking to long to get better so I stopped using it and went back to a purer brand of volcanic ash soap from wholefoods. I only tried it because I like the Giovanni line of skin care but it appears my face is just too sensitive for it.

It broke my face out pretty bad, but I only used it for less than a week, maybe my skin just needed time to adjust.

My face never broke out with this. And Retin A might cause dryness and irritation, but it won't be because of this product. I have VERY sensitive skin and never have had a problem with it.

I have oily, congested skin and after using this everyday for a couple weeks I noticed that my skin was getting overly irritated, dry and red. I stopped using it and the problem went away.

Hi. It is a bit too rough for the face. Depends on how sensitive your skin is. It may cause a breakout

Hi all I can tell you is my exserience using this product . I felt like it really dryed my face up which then the BP causes more breakouts for me . My skin is oily to begin with and I tried to do everything by the book as the directions say too but had to use it once a day cause of the drying factor but everyone's skin is diff so now I don't even use the product anymore maybe my face is to sensitive but good luck if you give it a try . Hope it works for you :)

I only use mine twice/week otherwise it irriates my skin. I've had it for 2 months, still about a month left.

It wasn't for mine (61 years old) but I don't use it every week. I would think though that if it was too drying for my skin I would have noticed it the first few days after use and I did not. My skin is not exceptionally dry but where I live there is very very low humidity so I guess you could say everyone here has fairly dry skin from the weather.
