Can you use two moisturizers at the same time? For example one for combination skin and one for wrinkles and fine lines?

Yeah. I use a few. as long as they're compatible (they usually will be), youll be good.

It depends on the cream. if mixed, some may have harmful effects. its more ideal to use an spf during the day and a night cream at night.

Sure - although if you have combination skin it may feel a bit heavy. Also if any of the moisturizers have any silicone or dimethicone as ingredients you may notice it "balling" on the skin.

You may want to use a serum (applied first) which will absorb quickly (and deeper) into the skin and is usually used as a targeted treatment for fine lines and wrinkles. You can then apply your moisturizer after that.

I wouldn't mix the two but you can definitely use them as spot treatments. I do it all the time with facial masks.
