Damn, last night i used retin a 0,05% and today i used spf50 cream before i went outside. Still now i got a bit of sunburn at my cheeks. Is it possible that the retin a is to strong to use during the summer??
I am scared of collagen loss.
 
Use another sunscreen
 
Put more sunscreen on your face, you probably underapplied it

I'm on accutane and got a sunburn yesterday. My entire body is red and puffy. Literal hell
 
It's possible that:
-you did not apply enough, or frequently enough
-it's not sunburn. Tretinoin is powerful, and it's possible it was just your skins reaction to it. Redness is common until your skin adjusts

I hope your sunscreen has good UVA protection as well.
