Why don’t you stop using all actives first (Niacinamide, vit C, retinol, AHA, BHA) for a few days and then try these sunscreen to see if it still stings.

The formula just does not suit you since one is physical sunscreen and the other one is chemical sunscreen. It happens, my face stings using Yadah sunscreen

Do other skincare products sting your face or it’s just those two??If other products sting your skin as well,then your barrier might be compromised that means you need to stay away from sensitizing products for some time and focus on barrier repairing products. The Ordinary Niacinamide is very strong and drying,if possible don’t use it daily. If it’s only those two products that sting then you might be allergic to the the filters in the sunscreen products.Try to check if both have the same UV filters and try a different brand with different filters.Hope you come alright 😊
