It is said that sunscreen is the most important product, but sunscreens make me sweat a lot and/or are difficult to apply. Could you please recommend a light weight sunscreen that will protect my skin without any side effects.

Different skin types respond to different cosmetic products.
Choice of sunscreen also depends on the area you live in and the kind of exposure you have on daily basis.
Are you using other skin care products like retinols?
Next Steps
Visit a good plastic surgeon in your city or book a tele consultation with one.
