We’re all looking for a lightweight mineral sunscreen that helps prevent sun damage, protects from UV rays and also helps even skin tone, right?! Look no further than this list of the best facial sunscreen for all skin types, including sensitive skin, dry skin, oily skin and those looking for more coverage.

The best advice my mother ever gave me? Wear sunscreen everyday! Her incredible skin is proof that daily sunscreen use works! So yesterday we discussed body sunscreens but today I wanted to focus on the best facial sunscreen.

Now I know it’s tempting to just slather that body sunscreen all over your face but I really wouldn’t recommend it (nor do most dermatologists) – especially if you have acne-prone skin. Oftentimes body sunscreens use way heavier oils that will likely cause clogged pores and breakouts.

Also natural body sunscreen tends to give that “white cast” that you get from pure zinc oxide so you will likely want a different formula for your face so you don’t look like a ghost. Although if you’re into that – go for it!

I’ve spent the last few years trying out different natural facial sunscreens but in the last year or so brands have come out with some really great products. I can honestly say that the natural facial sunscreens you can buy these days are just as good, if not better than conventional chemical sunscreen.

As mentioned yesterday, always look for a product that has Broad Spectrum SPF (includes both uva rays and uvb rays).

Personally I also like a facial sunscreen that adds moisture and hydration with a slight tint to cover any white cast. Additional product benefits (such as hyaluronic acid and niacinamide) in addition to being a sun protectant are always a plus.

So whether you’re using sunscreen to prevent skin cancer or prevent wrinkles promise me one thing: wear it! Here are the best face sunscreen products…
