Badger Damascus Rose Face Sunscreen Review

If you know me/read my blog often then you’ll know that I always wear facial suncreen. Even if it is pouring with rain outside I’ll protect my skin. As someone with fair skin I can quickly see sun damage and for the last 10 years or so have done my best to keep my face out of the harsh suns…
