Should I apply sunscreen before or after serum?
You should apply sunscreen after your serum. This is because serums are designed to penetrate the skin and deliver active ingredients, while sunscreen forms a protective layer on top. Applying sunscreen last ensures that it effectively shields your skin from harmful UV rays.
Key points:
- Sunscreen should be the final step in your skincare routine.
- Serums contain active ingredients meant for deeper skin absorption.
- Applying sunscreen after serum maximises its protective effect.
- Layering products in the correct order enhances overall skincare benefits.
