Should I apply sunscreen before or after makeup?

You should apply sunscreen before makeup. This allows the sunscreen to properly absorb into your skin and provide effective protection against harmful UV rays. After applying sunscreen, you can then proceed with your makeup routine.

Key points:

  • Sunscreen creates a barrier against UV rays.
  • Applying it first ensures maximum effectiveness.
  • Makeup can interfere with the sunscreen's protective layer.
  • Reapplication of sunscreen is essential for ongoing protection.
