When to apply sunscreen; before or after moisturizer?

This depends on the type of sunscreen you are using. It's best to apply mineral (also called “physical”) sunscreens after your moisturizer, as it will allow the product to effectively create a barrier between your skin and the harmful UV rays. However, if you are using chemical sunscreen, it is recommended to apply before applying any other products for optimal protection.

How to apply moisturizer

To apply moisturizer, start by cleansing your face and allowing it to dry completely. Take a pea-sized amount of moisturizer and gently massage it into your skin using an upward circular motion. Make sure to cover the entire face and neck area, and allow the product to absorb for several minutes before applying sunscreen or makeup. After applying serum, you should follow up with moisturizer. This will help to lock in any active ingredients from the serums for a more effective skincare routine.

When to use moisturizer

Moisturizer should be used twice daily - in the morning and evening. In the mornings, it helps to provide skin with a hydrated base before applying makeup or sunscreen. At night, it helps keep skin hydrated while you sleep and can also help protect against environmental stressors such as pollution or dry air. Moisturizer also helps to create a protective barrier on the skin, locking in any active ingredients from serums or other treatments that were applied beforehand. This will enhance the effectiveness of any skincare products you use.
