Sunscreens For The Face

Sunscreen is one of the most important products you can buy for your face. It beats all the fancy moisturizers and wrinkle creams available because it protects you against the most common cause of skin damage and wrinkles: the sun's harmful rays.

You might be tempted to use a sunscreen meant for the body on your face, but this isn't always the best idea. Sunscreen that's meant for the body can be too heavy and oily for your face, which can lead to clogged pores and breakouts. Your best bet is to use a sunscreen that's specially formulated for the face, or to use a facial moisturizer that has a high SPF protection.

Lancaster Sun Care Face High Protection Age-Defying Cream SPF 30 (average price; $25) is a rich, moisturizing sunscreen designed for women with sensitive, sunburn-prone skin. You won't have to worry about drying, irritation or peeling when you're using this luxurious product. In addition to its excellent UVA and UVB protection, it also contains anti-oxidants to help fight the signs of aging.

If you have oily skin, you can run into problems when using cream or lotion sunscreens, even those that are meant for the face. These products can be very shiny and noticeable on your skin, and definitely don't make the best base for make-up. sunforgettable mineral powder sun protection SPF 30 brush from colorscience (average price; $50) is a lightweight mineral powder makeup/sunscreen that perfects as it protects. This formula comes in six colors and features a convenient brush dispenser to evenly distribute the product over your skin.
