Do i have to put sunscreen on my face?

Sunscreen is essential for healthy skin and preventing long-term damage such as wrinkles, dark spots and even skin cancer. Facial sunscreens provide a protective barrier against UV rays and are therefore essential for maintaining healthy, youthful skin.

But how much sunscreen should you put on your face to get adequate protection?

How much sunscreen to put on your face

To get adequate protection from the sun, it is important to apply enough sunscreen to your face. Experts recommend using at least an amount equal to a 5-cent coin for the face and neck, which is about 1/4 teaspoon of product. In addition, sunscreen should be applied at least 15 minutes before sun exposure and reapplied every two hours or after sweating or bathing.

In addition, it is important to choose a sunscreen with an appropriate sun protection factor (SPF). Experts recommend an SPF of at least 30 for adequate UV protection. However, if you have particularly sensitive skin or are exposed to intense sun exposure, it is best to opt for a higher SPF.
