Here is their response: <em>"I recommend applying your Sunscreen first, over your clean bare skin, for sun protection. Next, add your MAC STROBE CREAM for hydration and luminescence. Next, add your MAC PREP + PRIME SKIN over your entire face to smooth the skin, creating the perfect base to your foundation application. Finish with your foundation over the top. This step by step application technique will ensure the most protected, hydrated skin with a flawless makeup application." </em> As for our personal opinion, we feel the less you put on your skin the better. Many ladies use their sunscreen (usually one with a silky finish) as a primer (lotion->sunscreen->foundation) because they don't like applying too many layers and want to let their skin breathe. Either way you choose, we hope that this information helped you. Please let us know if there is anything else you'd like to know about! :) Hi there :)
