Sunscreen is essential—it's the first and most important anti-aging item you need. The sun's rays cause burning and aging, making it a major culprit for dark spots and wrinkles. It's not just something you use when you're at the beach, but hey, you already knew that.
The common issue with sunscreens, though, is that their formulas tend to be sticky or too heavy on the face for everyday wear. Well, this excuse won't be valid anymore because we found lightweight sunscreens that act as amazing force fields for your face against the sun.
