Wear a big hat: Part of it may be genetic - you may just inherit the trait to make cute freckles. However, you might be able to beat your genetic programming by never getting sun exposure to your face and always wearing sunscreen. Avoid the sunlight on your face always and stay in the shade - i wasn't kidding about the big hat either. Sun will make all freckles bigger and darker.
