Sunscreen Last: The Secret to Optimal Protection and Hydration

Sunscreen should always be the final step in your morning routine.

When do I put on sunscreen during my daily skincare routine?

Between oils, moisturizers, sunscreen, primers, and makeup itself, it can be confusing to know when and at what step you should apply sunscreen. Laser Beamer Skincare is here to unlock the secret to the perfect process to achieve great-looking skin that is also protected from harmful UV rays, allowing you to help keep your skin looking great for many years to come.

Skincare Product Layering

Layering your skincare products is essential for a healthy glow, but the order does matter! Sunscreen should always be the final step before applying makeup in your morning routine. Here’s why:

  • Maximum Protection: Sunscreen acts as a shield, so applying it on top of moisturizer creates a complete barrier against harmful UV rays.
  • Moisture Magic: Layering sunscreen over your moisturizer and other hydrating products seals that moisture in, keeping your skin soft and supple.
  • Makeup Must-Do: For a flawless base, apply makeup primer or foundation after sunscreen. This ensures the primer or foundation grips your makeup without affecting the protective SPF layer. Plus, your skin will be protected while your makeup looks fantastic.

Here’s Your Winning Skincare Routine

  1. Cleanse and wash your face with an effective yet gentle cleanser.
  2. Pat your face dry with a clean towel.
  3. Apply your favorite serums, oils, and moisturizer. Let each layer dry completely before applying the next.
  4. Now apply a generous amount of sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher. Let it fully absorb for about one or two minutes.
  5. Once the sunscreen dries, smooth on your makeup primer or foundation and continue with your usual makeup routine.

By following this simple order, you’ll get the most out of your skincare products, ensuring optimal sun protection, long-lasting hydration, and gorgeous skin all day long!
