Yay for the summer and spending lots of time outside. I could go on and on about the importance of sunscreen, but I am sure you all know by now that you need to wear sunscreen everyday and that you need to reapply it often. Did you know that you should be using a different sunscreen on your face than you use on your body? The sunscreens that are formulated for your body are often more harsh and could clog pores. Your face needs a more skincare-like version of sunscreen, with a higher SPF too.

The best sunscreens for your face.

I have tested my share of sunscreens for face and I am quite picky about them. I need the sunscreen to last all day and to wear well under makeup. It needs to sink into skin fast and not leave a heavy or greasy after-feel. I don't like a heavy scented sunscreen on my face.

Here are my top 10 favorite sunscreens for my face.

1. Neutrogena Ultra Sheer Liquid Sunscreen SPF 70

2. SkinCeuticals Physical UV Defense SPF 50

3. L'Oréal Silky Sheer BB Face Lotion SPF 50+

4. blisslabs active 99.0 UV Protect SPF 30

5. AVEENO Protect + Hydrate Lotion Sunscreen Broad Spectrum SPF 50 for Face

6. h2O+ UV Defense Fluid SPF 50 PA+++

7. Algenist Ultra Lightweight UV Defense Fluid SPF 50

8. Clinique Sun Broad Spectrum SPF 50 Sunscreen Face Cream

9. Clarins Sunscreen for Face Wrinkle Control Cream SPF 50+

10. Supergoop! Skin Soothing Mineral Sunscreen Broad Spectrum SPF 40

Tip: Your facial sunscreen is the last thing you should apply in your morning skincare routine right before your makeup. Let it sink into your skin for about five minutes before applying your primer or foundation.
