The best face SPF needs to contain UVA and UVB protection, which covers the two types of sun damage that can cause both skin cancer and premature ageing, and should be worn year-round. It should be applied as a final step in your skincare, and topped up regularly throughout the day. Enter, the best sunscreen sticks, which can be used for convenient, quick touch-ups.
Applied to the skin with a quick sweep, these solid balms make bolstering your sun-protection a breeze. Although, it is worth noting that they're best-suited to smaller areas of the skin, like the lips, tips of your ears, under-eye area and cheeks, and they wouldn’t be convenient as a replacement for the best body sunscreens.
