I use a 50 sunscreen with zinc oxide under my makeup. But I still get blotchy! Aside from staying out of the sun , which is impossible. What can I do??

Maybe you're having a reaction to the zinc or another ingredient in the sunscreen. Or the mixing of the ingredients in the sunscreen and your makeup could be causing irritation. Try a different sunscreen and do a test out of the sun with the current one. If you're still blotchy without being in the sun it's possible its a reaction from something in either the sunsceen or your makeup. If it continues after you switch products go to a doctor,you may have a skin condition. My mother has lupus and the sun makes it worse. I doubt that's what this is but there are skin conditions that are further irritated by sun exposure.
