Slamming face on water - Breaststroke

Hi there, am asking for advice on my breaststroke technique. I'm doing the over the water recovery, lunging forward with both arms over the water and shooting forward as much as possible. I try to keep my face downwards and looking at the lane line. However, I still feel the impact of the water hitting my goggles especially, creating uncomfortable suction on my goggles and it doesn't feel great on the rest of my face obviously. However, when I try to duck my head and hit the water with my forehead, I don't feel an impact on my face but it shortens my recovery distance with my arms and negatively affects my time. Any suggestions? Does anyone else experience this? Thanks in advance!
