I am wondering if applying a moisturizer before my sunblock is of any benefit. I use Cetaphil and over that sunblock every day anyhow.
Do you all wear moisturizer in addition to sunscreen? |

When we actually get some sun over here I use sunscreen in place of moisturiser. |

I use the European Eucerin Sunblock which is a good moisturizer in itself and not too greasy. I was just used to the order moisturizer, sunscreen, make-up (optional). So today I asked myself - why DO I use this moisturizer?!
I am just very cautious and wear sunscreen every day, even in the winter when I barely get any sun on my face. |

Most of the time, I wear sunscreen in place of moisturizer also. On mornings when I apply a mask or scrub, I wear a moisturizer with sunscreen (such as Devita). |

Sunscreen only. I don't layer products because of sensitivities and figure the less I have on my face the better. |

I usually only wear sunscreen or a good moisturiser with high SPF, otherwise I find my skin gets really greasy if I use too many products on top of each other. |

I use moisturizer and then apply sunscreen. |

Since my skin is oily, I find sunscreen is enough. And it is good to wear sunscreen indoors because artificial light gives off UVA light. |

I figure my skin won't be able to breathe if I layer too much products onto it. So I only wear a moisturizer with spf, instead of 2 lotions or cream. However, I do apply a thin layer of C serum before the moisturizer. |

That would drive me crazy! At least here in aus even in winter we have some sunny days. It makes me feel depressed when i dont see the sun for days!
Back on subject, it depends what sunscreen i use. Some fell more moisturising than others. |

I always use a moisturizer under a sunscreen..I think of it as a "buffer". |

I prefer to use a moisturizer under my sunscreen, but find that when I do my skin is too shiny, so I usually end up just wearing sunscreen. |
