I'm worried about using sunscreen because I have acne scars and large pores. Plus, my skin is really sensitive and Im quite fair-skinned. Is there a sunscreen that's gentle enough and won't make my acne worse or cause any other side effects? Any advice would be appreciated!

I'm an 18-year-old and my hair is just so smooth and silky that it keeps falling out, and it's really hard to keep any hairstyle in place because of that. I'm really hoping to find some solutions to make my hair a bit rougher so I can actually style it the way I want. What can I do to get that kind of texture?

Consider using hair products containing ingredients like sea salt, texturizing sprays, or dry shampoo to add volume and texture, or try hairstyles that work with silky hair, such as braids, buns, or ponytails, and for a more permanent solution, consult a Dermatologist
