After trying Olay Complete for several days it made my whole face break out in fungal acne. (I learned my lesson to spot test next time.) I double checked all the ingredients and they match up here, but for some reason this product made my acne much worse.

In general, Olay has changed a lot since I was younger and uses this all the time. Also the scent is so much stronger. Used to love many forms especially the original beauty cream from Olay. Anything with sunscreen in their products tends to break me out right away. I have read the same thing in other places. This is not fungal acne safe perhaps? I was looking up reviews and other people mentioned on other sites it broke them out. Maybe this once was and then they changed the ingredients? Anyway else to double check the item on this list?
