Sun damage on my cheeks and forehead has resulted in dark patches and freckles, so I am now never without facial sunscreen of SPF20 in winter and SPF30+ from spring onwards.

I'm no fan of facial sunscreens - not because I want to tan my face, but because they're usually rubbish under make-up.

The best facial sunscreen for wear under makeup by a mile is Chanel UV Essentiel Protective UV Care Anti Pollution SPF 50.

I thought we were going somewhere when you started a sentence with "I'm no fan of facial sunscreens - not because I want to tan my face, but..." But what?

Is it true that using makeup with SPF is just like wearing regular facial sunscreen?
