In reply to alyr. Alyr, I know it seems obvious. But a lot of people ask me about it. It's because we're always told to do it but never why. :)

In reply to JD. JD, that's a good routine. I like taking breaks as I apply skincare products too to give them the time to dry. :)

In reply to kaido. Kaido, if you do it gently (no rubbing), it should be fine. But depending on how sunny it was that day and how much sun exposure you've got, it may be time to reapply sunscreen anyway.

This is my routine these days: I wash my face with water (now that it’s summer, I use a BHA wash on my T-zone), apply hydrating lotion (as it’s called in Japan, not sure what you call it in the West) and let the lotion dry (doesn’t take long). Then I put on a light face serum. Then, put work clothes on and sip coffee. Put on sunscreen. Then I eat breakfast, dry my hair, and prepare the things I’ll take to work. I brush teeth carefully. By the time I put on tinted moisturizer or BB/CC cream, the sunscreen is already dry.
