A dogs lick on a person can be for a number of reasons.

When a dog licks a person it could mean that they're trying to say they love you, want to play or are just licking the salt off the persons skin.

Dogs love the salt that is produced through a persons sweat and will lick that salt off your skin so that could be one of the major reasons for a dog licking you if it's not because of the other reasons.

I would say that in most cases the dog is licking your skin or face to lick the salt off the skin because they love the salt.
