Is it okay to only use sunscreen without isolation? What is the role of sunscreen

Isolation and method are two essential skin care products in daily life, and their functions seem to be similar. So, is it possible to only use sunscreen without isolation? I believe many girls have the same question, let me explain it to you below!

Is it okay to just use sunscreen without isolation?

Can't. Isolation and sunscreen are two products with different functions. The main function of sunscreen is to form a protective film on the face and isolate ultraviolet rays at the most basic part. Isolation is mainly used to improve complexion and even out skin tone, and can be used as a primer before makeup. Although the two have some overlapping functions, they cannot replace each other. Therefore, it is best to use both.

Which should I use first, sunscreen or isolation?

The correct order should be sun protection first and then isolation. Sun protection is the last step of skin care, and isolation is the first step of makeup. As a skin care product, sunscreen itself can act directly on the bottom layer of skin without causing much burden on the skin. Isolation itself should not be applied directly to the underlying skin, so it should naturally be applied behind sunscreen.

What does sunscreen do?

The main function is to form a protective film at the bottom layer of the skin to protect the skin. Avoid direct exposure of your skin to ultraviolet rays, which may cause tanning or even sunburn. Some sunscreens have certain moisturizing and hydrating functions, but in fact the most important thing is its sun protection function.

What is the role of isolation cream

Isolation, used before liquid foundation, can be used as a primer. Generally speaking, its main function is to even out skin tone and improve facial appearance to a certain extent. If the isolation product has a good hydrating and moisturizing effect, it can also make the makeup more adherent and reduce the occurrence of powder sticking.
