Apply sunscreen in the same direction. Whether you rub it in in a circular motion or apply it up and down, it may not work as well. When applying sunscreen, first squeeze an appropriate amount of sunscreen into the palm of your hand, dip the sunscreen with your fingers, apply evenly over the entire face, center the nose, and then spread the sunscreen with your fingers. And press evenly, avoid friction, push and pull back and forth. The purpose of using sunscreen is to create an even film on the face, not to absorb the sunscreen.
