Under Makeup
This is the basic step and should be followed daily. Apply a sunscreen after cleansing your skin and wait for about 20 minutes before using a moisturizer. Then apply makeup as usual. Your skin will stay protected for a couple of hours.
Reapplying Sunscreen over makeup
As we know that a sunscreen should be applied every 2 hours for adequate protection, you need to be a little smart. If your skin is fairly clear, you can cover spots with a light concealer or BB cream. Applying makeup over such base is easy.
Set with SPF
A great way to keep your face under layers of sunscreen is to use a makeup-setting spray with SPF. Spritz it on once you are done with makeup. Keep spraying it on your face every hour to stay protected all day. Your makeup will stay in place and will look fresh as well.
Some spray-on sunscreens are also available in the market and they can be used in the same way.
Powder Up
