You always put your serums on first , it thinnest to thickest, a serum is formulated with smaller molecules to go deeper into the skin a moisturizers molecules are larger and sit more on the surface

Def before. Put in the serum and let it soak in, then apply moisturizer. The serum will also help your moisturizer penetrate deeper into your skin

I used to put on my serum after my moisturizer then I read it was the other way around so I change it. And now I read that I was right all along?? I'm confused. Which one is it?? Thanks in advance.
