Can you put sunscreen on top of oil?

Generally speaking, it is not recommended to apply sunscreen over oil since the oil can create a barrier that will prevent the sunscreen from being absorbed into the skin. This can make the sunscreen ineffective. It is best to apply sunscreen before applying any type of oil to the skin. It is also important to remember to reapply sunscreen every two hours when you are outdoors for maximum protection.

Should I apply oil before or after sunscreen?

Generally, it is best to apply sunscreen before applying oil. Sunscreen is designed to protect your skin from the sun’s UV rays, and oil can interfere with its effectiveness. Applying oil after sunscreen can also dilute the sunscreen and make it less effective. It is always best to apply sunscreen first, and then apply oil afterwards.

Can you put sunscreen over coconut oil?

Yes, it is safe to apply sunscreen over coconut oil. However, it is important to note that coconut oil is not a sunscreen and will not provide any sun protection on its own. Therefore, it is important to apply a sunscreen with an SPF of at least 30 over the coconut oil to ensure adequate sun protection. Additionally, it is important to re-apply sunscreen every two hours, or after swimming or sweating, to ensure that you are properly protected from the sun’s harmful rays.
