sunscreen before or after moisturiser & foundation

cleanse, treatment, moisturise, sunscreen then foundation? Is that the right order, recently got some of the dermatica treatment cream and I've read that I should now be wearing sunscreen.

That's how I do it; sunscreen as final skincare step then makeup

Yes, that's the right order. At least it's what I do. 😉 And you can get spf that you can spray over your foundation to keep it topped up.

I skip the moisturiser as I find it's grease-ville if I use both.

even as a dry skinned individual

Interested about the 'spray over make-up' sunscreen? Can you recommend one?

My skin is too greasy if I apply sunscreen over moisturiser, but then I fret that my skin will dry out if I don't use moisturiser too, in the mornings. But I guess that not using sunscreen is far more damaging that not using a moisturiser (I do use a good serum every morning though).

I use this. Really useful for top-ups, even over make-up.
And doesn't irritate my very sensitive, rosacea-prone, super-pale skin.

Bit pricey, but lasts a fair while.

I do skincare and then use Nivea
SPF the stuff you would take on holiday and no moisturiser, it's the best moisturiser for me, I get no flare ups of eczema when I use it. Discovered on holiday and have kept going.

Thank you. I have just ordered one.
