Before applying sunscreen is it necesaary to apply face cream or any moisturiser?

It doesn't matter what skin type you are(dry, combination or oily), you suppose to use a moisturizer on your face all the time. For day to day you can use a custom fit moisturizer with SPF in it. Even if it's cloudy you still have to protect your skin. The UVA rays(UVB and UVA) damage your skin anyway.(Suggested product- Superdefence SPF 25- Clinique, affordable great moisturizer comes in 3 different textures for each skin type). But if you spend lots of time outside or if you lay on the beach you need to use a higher SPF on top of your moisturizer.Before applying sunscreen is it necesaary to apply face cream or any moisturiser?
It's not necessary but make sure the sunscreen is meant for the face if you have sensitive skin or if you have skin that is prone to breakouts. Also oily skin might break out if you use oil based sunscreens.





If you use a mineral sunscreen you should apply moisturizer first though.Before applying sunscreen is it necesaary to apply face cream or any moisturiser?
Well yes, it's pretty much a good idea to always moisturize.





I suggest looking for a moisturizer with SPF in it. I suggest trying out the Olay Complete with SPF 15 for Sensitive Skin (the one in the bottle). It was a little too thick for my oilier skin, but if you have normal to dry skin, I think it might work well :)





I suggest looking online for reviews on facial moisturizers and sunscreens, and picking out ones that you think are the best candidates for your skin, since no one knows your skin other than you.
