Hey guys,
I've been starting to use Zindaclin (aka Clindamycin Phosphate) gel since April this year, been applying it twice a day. However, it's been causing some redness and I've been using liquid foundation (with SPF) to give my face a more smooth complexion.

However, I'm really keen on trying this new liquid foundation that's been launched by Illamasqua - however it does not contain any form of SPF. I'm just wondering whether my skin will get very sensitive to this due to no SPF protection/coverage? Since applying these topical gels, my skin (arms, legs, everywhere really) has been very sensitive and if I do not wear sunscreen I will get a red itchy rash. So I'm not sure whether a No SPF foundation will be alright to apply over my topical medication or will I get red itchy rashes on my face? (Never had that and do not want any form of itchy rashes!)

If one day I get off this topical medication, how long does it approximately take to get out of my system? I used to be able to tan, but this time, I'm getting red itchy rashes that I cannot bear due to photosensitivity... pfft!
