The post caused surprise. “I really don’t use enough”
There were a lot of surprises in the comments. Many people noticed that they actually used too little of the product. Most were surprised by the amount of sunscreen. Fans pointed out that it was a lot of product, but doctor Bunting reassured her and noticed that it was enough to apply it in two portions for the cream to be well absorbed and not leave an oily layer on the face.
If I used even half that amount of sunscreen, my face would run dry.
I really don’t use enough.
If I had to put on so much sunscreen, I’d pat it on for half an hour.
Thank you. Sometimes I feel confused.
Wow… I didn’t use enough…
Interesting. Apparently I’ve always been doing it wrong.
