Bruises from Front Squats

So I was doing front squats as part of my program, but for the few days after I have had bruises on my right collar bone (my roommate thought it was a hickie). I'm not sure if this is from bad form or simply the way that my body is made (collar bone sticks out too much). Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix this? Front squats are so hard, but I can really feel them working my entire body, especially the core when compared to back squats.
 
I usually get bruises there when I do cleans. I guess it depends on how tick your shoulders are. If your front delts are big the bar will be held above the collar bone, if not, it will probably bruise a bit, no biggie.
 
Yeah, I used to get constantly bruised delts when I was front squatting, it's no big deal and it sounds cool when people ask you how you got them, it shows you're lifting heavy *****
