    Would be very appreciative if anyone could tell me which is applied first - sun cream or moisturizer. I know I have been told this before but like a lot of things, I have completely forgotten the answer. I'm sure it must be important which step is taken first in order to let the sun cream react with the skin. I am guessing that the sun cream probably goes first but am not sure? Also, just of interest, does the sun cream act as a moisturizer and therefore another cream might not be needed? Thanks a million. :)

    Thanks for that. Unfortunately, Soltan brings me out in a rash every time I use it. I think it blocks my pores or something! Back to the drawing board........

    I always mix the two together! Make sure and use one specifically for the face though.

    If you're going abroad then I'd get something from Vichy/La Roche Posay as they have a range with high spf's and are hypo allergenic and specific for the face too.
    Clinique have Cityblock (I think) and you use it over your moisturiser, it's oil free, as far as I know.

    I use Simple Regeneration spf 15 - it's a moisturiser with spf, so no need for seperate creams and ascosciated build up.
