I just wasn't sure which forum to post this to, I hope I can get some advice here, so the sunscreen I use is very very waterproof, like even after 12+ hours of being on my face, its still there as it was when I put it, if anyone can give me some advice on how to remove it effectively when I get back home, without being harsh on my skin as I am just 3 weeks post Accutane, I use a mild cleanser which is nowhere near enough to get that off. any help? btw, I wont change my sunscreen, I love it.

I know this is an old post, but oil cleansing removes sunscreen really well!! It turns it milky and white and it rinses right off. 

I recommend finding a non comedogenic oil that is cold pressed and unrefined (I use sunflower oil) and washing your face with a dime-sized amount, and then washing with your normal face wash :)

I agree. Oil should do the trick then wash it off with warm water. Then wash with your mild cleanser as usual.
