Do you use separate sunscreens for your face and body? I used to use the same sunscreen for my face and body and noticed it was a little thicker than I’d like to use on my skin. So, if you have acne-prone skin or just want to use a lighter version of sun protection on your face, look for some of these high-quality sunscreens for your face!
