Serum or moisturiser first?

Instinct says serum but I don't know.

What's the consensus?

Serum first. It is more potent and finer texture, so can sink in more. Moisturiser doesn't get as deep so would stop it

I'm using the Soap and Glory one in the tube shaped bottle (there's a silver cylinder and a silver tube, like a toothpaste tube)

Both brilliant

I'm using La Roche Posay's Effaclar Duo as a serum at the minute and my skin is looking pretty fabulous Grin

Serum first. Then decide if you need moisturiser as well, you might not if you have oily/combination skin as many serums will be moisturising.
