I have very light skin with many moles, so I should take care to wear sun protection whenever I go outside.
However, I greatly struggle with finding a suitable product for my face. I hate the feeling of product on my face, which is also why I almost never wear make-up. The biggest problem with daily sunscreen for me is that I wear glasses, and whichever type of face cream with SPF I wear, it ends up making blotches on my glasses, which I then have in my view, and if I am at work or just out of my home, I can't clean my glasses to remove them. Those blotches then bother me very much and distract me. I only clean my glasses with water and soap, and dry them with a dry towel, because in my experience all sorts of cleaning products and pre-packed cleaning towels leave marks and stripes on my glasses, and only the water-soap-dry towel method leaves them 100% transparent with no traces.
I usually wear sunscreen on my face with no big problems when I don't wear my glasses, so the blotches on my glasses are really the most important thing preventing it. I don't want to switch to contacts, though, because I like how my glasses look on me, I like being able to just put them on and remove them, and I would be certain that contacts would end up being a struggle and cause irritation to my eyes, because I already have dryer eyes that tend to get irritated.
I tried many times to just stick it out, reminding myself that I just need to do this now to prevent skin cancer later. But since it is a daily struggle, I often can't bring myself to do it.
To people with sensitive skin, discomfort with product on your skin, and glasses (if there are any here): What kind of sun protection face product do you use, which doesn't feel weird and which doesn't leave traces on your glasses?
