Bad for Sensitive Skin

When I started using this, I thought something was odd because it sat very heavily on my skin and it made tingly, unpleasant sensations afterwards. But I overlooked it because my skin has been producing a lot of sebum and I desperately needed an oil-balancing moisturizer, such as this one claims.
I think it was three days after that that my cheeks started to hurt. It was due to several comedones. They were really painful, really red and really sensitive to touch. I remember having like a hard time sleeping because of it. They were gone only after two weeks and even then I had terrible scarrings. So, moral of the story, do not use this if you have skin that's prone to comedones or prone to excessive sebum production (or, also, if you have sensitive skin). This product has also damaged my moisture barrier and caused more oil production on my face.
