Should I apply sunscreen before or after primer?

You should apply sunscreen before primer. Sunscreen needs to be directly on your skin to effectively protect you from UV rays, while primer is meant to create a smooth base for makeup. Applying sunscreen first ensures that you receive the full benefits of sun protection.

Key points:

  • Sunscreen acts as a barrier against harmful UV rays.
  • Primer helps create a smooth surface for makeup application.
  • Order of application affects the effectiveness of sun protection.
  • Applying sunscreen first ensures maximum coverage.
