[Skin Concerns] New sun damage even with powerful sunscreen? Please help

Beauty Tips For Body Care
I've worn sunscreen daily since I was a teen. I didn't know much about it, I just picked the highest SPF at the drugstore and it seemed to do fine.For some reason my skin has now become unnaturally sensitive to the sun (it is extremely fair). I'm not sure if it's because I tried retin-a for 7 months last year or not.I did a ton of research about sunscreens and realized I needed one with high spf and high ppd to cover my needs. I finally recently settled on the La Roche Posay Shaka fluid and I really liked it. It's thin, doesn't leave a white cast, isn't too greasy, and has some of the best protection on the market.Except today I realized I have a new mole on my nose. I'm completely flabbergasted. I am chronically ill and rarely leave my home, I even work from home. I went to the hospital yesterday so in total was probably in the car for maybe 20 minutes (and it was cloudy). The day before I had to go out and it was sunnier but total I probably got maybe 30 minutes sun exposure if that. Keep in mind I had the sunscreen on both times.I am just so confused. The only active I currently use is vitamin c which is supposed to protect your skin from the sun not make it more sensitive. I just feel so defeated having such pale skin, it's like there's nothing I can do to protect it no matter how hard I try. Please, any advice would be greatly appreciated.
