I was wondering how you ladies wear your sunscreen on your face in the summer while wearing makeup? I never really wore much on my face in the summer time before, just a little brow powder and eyeliner. I've been wearing a lot more foundations and contouring products, etc.lately and I was wondering when in your routine (when wearing more of a full face) do you ladies put on your SPF? Do you put it on first? Last? Any tips, tricks, preferences?

My moisturizer has SPF in it, but I'll be out in the sun all day and would like WAY more protection than that can give me. I normally go barefaced in the summer with my SPF but I'm going to Florida for the weekend with a bunch of friends and I'd like to look a little more polished with a more complete makeup face knowing they'll be taking tons of photos and I'll be meeting new people and so on. =/

It depends if you are putting an antioxidant serum on too... That would go first, allow to dry, sunscreen, then makeup...

I apply my neutrogena clear skin sunblock before anything, apply the rest of my makeuo, and then apply mineral foundation when I touch up to refresh the spf. I just use cheap elf mineral foundation, it works pretty well for this purpose.

I use an SPF lotion under my foundation. I think it makes the foundation look more natural with a moisturizing base and I get sun protection as well! I like to use an SPF of an least 30 during day

I use Josie Maran moisturizer SPF 40. I put it on right after I wash my face. Then let in soak in for a bit then the rest of my face goes on.

My newest favorite Product is the tinted moisturizer You Rebel! By Benefit; it's got a really nice clean polished look , and SPF 15 I think, but I usually put basic Facial sunscreen on before that to get more sun protection. If you add a little bronzer or even some nice light blush ( I like NARS super orgasm) , you won't look like you're not wearing enough makeup, but you also won't look cakey! It's perfect for hot weather
