Should I use primer or sunscreen first?

Many young ladies are afraid of getting tanned so they will apply a layer of primer before going out. However, some young ladies often ignore the sunscreen before applying the primer. So should they apply the primer first or the sunscreen?

Should I use primer or sunscreen first?

When applying cosmetics, apply sunscreen first and then isolation. Sun protection is the last step of skin care, while isolation is the first step of makeup. You should take care of your skin before applying makeup.

The ultraviolet rays in the sun can cause serious damage to the skin, not only causing tanning and sunburn, but also leading to skin sagging, spots, wrinkles, etc. Sunscreen contains sunscreen agents that can block or absorb ultraviolet rays, which can effectively prevent direct contact between ultraviolet rays and the skin.

Isolation cream can modify skin tone and prevent dust in the air and cosmetics from damaging the skin. In addition, isolation also has a sun protection effect, but its sun protection effect is not as good as that of sunscreen.

How to use sunscreen

Take a coin-sized amount of sunscreen and apply it to the forehead, cheeks, chin, tip of the nose and other parts. Then gently pat the sunscreen with your hands to evenly distribute it on the facial skin until it is absorbed.

It should be noted that sunscreen can only be effective in protecting against the sun if it is applied thickly. It cannot be smeared on the skin, as this will cause the sunscreen to be unevenly distributed and affect its effect.

How to use primer

The usage of isolation cream is similar to that of sunscreen. It also needs to be applied on the face, and then gently spread with makeup tools such as sponge eggs, powder puffs, and makeup brushes. If you use a sponge egg or powder puff, wet it with water first, so that you can create a light and natural makeup look.
