I am just getting interested in Skinceuticals. Question: At what point during my morning regimen do I apply this sunscreen?

After my shower, when skin is moist and clean I put on serum, and eye cream, then Skinceuticals sunblock and then my regular (tinted or clear) moisturizer, and neck cream.

I apply my vitamin C serum followed by my moisturizer, then Skinceuticals Sheer Physical UV Defense (allow it to dry) and then apply make-up. Hope that helps!

You apply sunscreen as last. If you are using powder/bronzer/blusher, you can apply them after you applied the sunscreen.

I apply this sunscreen just before applying any make up and, I do this routine daily. I sometimes also use the tinted sunscreen as part of my makeup regime but, sunscreen must be applied to clean skin BEFORE applying any make up. I hope this helps.

Apply sunblock after the skincare routine, before yr makeup. Ensure at least 15mins before u step out of the house. Do not drag sunblock against the face. Apply it on a tap, tap motion so it stay on the skin rather than on the fingers.

When I bought it initially at the mall and realized I totally over paid, they told me that I should use the serum at night and the cream in the morning. You use it everyday for a month and then you can scale back to about every 3 days. I use the cream every morning under my eyes. You use both around your eyes or anywhere you have wrinkles on your face. It works great and I love it.

It depends on how sensitive your skin is. Start off at once or twice a week and then work up to every other day. It's important to use a VERY GENTLE circular motion. Too much pressure and you'll abrade the skin. Use in the evenings before bed for best results and follow with a good moisturizer that contains retinol. Your skin regenerates and heals as you sleep.

It says to use the cream in the morning and evening which is what I do. I also use the normal ponds day cream over its because it does not have a sunblock in it.

Hi Lang,Essentially what Marina mentioned is correct. She is spot on. Thanks Marina for your input.But again it will also depend on the person and their skin type. Some of our customer have mentioned that they use the serum before a moisturizer and after a toner also to get even better results. We will be coming out with those products in the near future also but for the moment you can simply try this routine with the moisturizers and toners you use.With sunscreen it would go on under the serum.It's great to hear about the results you are getting also Marina.

I use this daily, so my best guess is that it still works with moisturizer and makeup. Its no problem putting it on after your moisturizer, but I don't apply makeup over it myself so I can't say for sure. The sunscreen definitely works great, if anything it works so well that it can make the skin close to my eyes extra sensitive to sun when I don't wear it. I hope that helped, I thought I'd go ahead and respond because I'm grateful to everyone who answers my questions.

@ Alejandra T. Yes! I apply this product after washing my face first thing in the morning. I don't worry about protecting the product with a sunscreen because I am always indoors. However, if you plan on enjoying direct sunlight, always protect your skin with a broad spectrum sunscreen. It is still working for me. I hope you have great results.

Apply morning and night to your face and neck. Very simple :) Great product!

I live in Southern California, so I have to apply it every hour that I am in the sun. So if I am going out to lunch on the beach, then I apply 45 minutes before I go out. And don't worry about it again. However, if I am going to spend a few hours in the sun (like at an open market) then I take the tube with me to reapply and wear a hat to protect my face and eyes. It really depends on where you are at and how sensitive your skin is to the sun.

During the day I use a physical sunscreen or bbcream. I rarely use this during the evening as I use skinmedica retinol.

There have been times that I've used this cream during the day, especially when I may have forgotten to put it on the night before, or I am going to be in the house all day, or there is very little sun out. But this cream does not have sunscreen in it like the daytime moisturizer, so I wouldn't recommend using it during the day. I love the Total Effects with SPF 15. Very emollient and offers great sun protection without looking pasty.

As long as you wait a while for it to soak in and dry you should be fine. I've used sunscreen, but I usually wait at least 30 minutes until it feels like it's totally absorbed

You'll need to leave it on. I'm not a big make-up person either, so I apply AquaGlycolic and a little loose powder and I'm done. If I'm going to be outside, I apply a light sunscreen moisturizer before the powder.

I put it on under my moisturizer in the morning before I apply makeup. Then use it again at night when I'm going to bed. My skin feels smooth the next morning. On weekends, I use it alone when I don't apply any makeup. My skin is not too oily so I sometimes need just a small dot of moisturizer with it. I love it!

I use it on specific spots at the first sign of acne and it dries it up quick or keeps it from forming. For existing really bad acne I apply directly to them up to 2x a day (a few mins each time) and they are usually gone with in 2 days max. I usually only use it all over my face if I'm going to do glycolic after. Over all it works really well for me. I highly recommended. Start out slow tho... don't over do it and protect your face from the sun while using. Good luck!

Applies until you see the results about 2-3 weeks. First week, will give you small ance, but don't be afraid, keep on until 2-3 weeks, and keep until you ran out first container about 1-2 months. Also avoid sunlight is recommended, if go the beach apply sun screen every hour or stay under umbrella.

I usually use this before going to bed by itself as I use it as a moisturizer.I use a different moisturizer in the morning just because it has spf.Hope this helped answer your question.
