Face sunscreen is typically lighter in weight and formula, designed to be non-greasy and quickly absorbed. Scalp sunscreen should have a higher SPF rating of at least 30 for maximum protection from the sun’s harmful rays.
It should also contain ingredients like aloe vera or shea butter that can provide hydration without clogging pores. Choose mineral or chemical formulas depending on your needs for optimal coverage against UVA/UVB damage.
