Sunblock under or over moisturiser?

    Hi. I've started using a factor 50 Vichy suncream for my face. I don't know if I put it under or over my daily moisturizer. Or does it make any difference?
    I change moisturizers quite a bit so sometimes there is an SPF in this cream too although usually max SPF30.
    Also my foundation would usually contain an SPF15.

    So what order does it go on? Or does it make any difference ?

    Thanks
    M

    I usually just mix the two together! Don't think it makes much difference what way you put them on :)

    Apply 5-10 mins after Moisturiser, you want SS to be the last product you apply, so it protects you.

    I put mine on last, after serum and moisturiser. No idea why though! then once it has all sunk in, I do my makeup.

    I did read somewhere once that sun block only starts to break down in sunlight so if you work indoors you will still be protected by your morning sunscreen when you go outside at lunch or after work. So unlike when you are sitting on the beach on hols, you don't need to reapply every two hours and mess up your makeup. Hope it is actually true!
