Helmet safety is very important. You con't want to crash and break your head!!! So, I like to wear full face helmets for all types of mountain biking.
The following only applies to full face helmets.
Use ASPM1952 rated helmets for optimal protection. For downhill riding, ASPM1952 standard helmets are mandatory. Also, if your helmet is qualified by Europe standards it's an awesome helmet because Europe standards are very high.
The following only applies to half face helmets.
Don't use BMX helmets. They're way too heavy and don't meet mountain biking standards. But, always remember that full face helmets are waaaaaaaaaaaay better than half face helmets. Don't use half face helmets unless absolutely required!!!
