BB cream before or after SPF?

I've never used BB cream before but got a free sample of LRP which feels and looks quite nice.

Is it supposed to replace moisturiser + foundation?

Just wondering if I should put SPF on before or after.

Thanks!

I think it depends on your skin type. I think the idea is that it's a 3 in one (noisturiser, foundation and spf). I haven't used a specific BB cream as such, but I have dryish skin and with Nars tinted moisturiser spf 30 (which I'm told is equivalent to a BB cream) I use a thin layer of basic moisturiser, followed by SPF, followed by the Nars.

I use a serum, BB cream, then a light covering of SPF moisturiser.

I would always use SPF before bb cream

The SPF would go on before the BB cream. You wouldn't put sunscreen on over your foundation, it would just wipe it all off.
