Hullo ladies and gentlemen!

So I am a person with acne prone, oily, sensitive skin. Of late I have been using jojoba oil as moisturiser on my skin (100% pure oil by Desert Essence) in the morning under sunscreen and vitamin C serum (15%) overnight. I plan to add the Aveeno clear complexion moisturiser on top of my vitamin C serum to combat seasonal dryness. I have never had a reaction with using Salicylic acid and vitamin C serum applied one right after another, so my question is, do you think it would be okay to rub in my vitamin C serum at night, then coat with Aveeno moisturiser overnight?

Thank you for your time.

I believe that would be fine, most serums are supposed to go under moisturizers, not serve as moisturizers themselves. I don't see a problem with putting a moisturizer over it, and Aveeno products are lovely.

Yes it's fine hun I use them together all the time , as long as you have never had issues with them before you should be fine.
