To achieve the SPF value on the label, sunscreen products typically require 2mg per square centimeter. Applying too much foundation to the face will result in an extremely heavy, oily, and prone-to-smudging makeup look.

Is sunscreen effective after face foundation is applied on top?

Sunscreen is most effective when applied directly to clean, dry skin before any makeup, including foundation. If you apply foundation on top of sunscreen, it can reduce the sunscreen's effectiveness, particularly if the foundation is heavy or if it's applied in a way that disturbs the sunscreen layer. For best protection, consider using a makeup product that includes SPF or reapply sunscreen over makeup with a setting spray or powder sunscreen designed for that purpose.

When wearing sunscrean with makeup which should be applied first?

Sunscreen should probably be applied first, unless you are confident that the sunscreen will not wipe off your makeup. Unfortunately, if you aren't confident in that you can only apply one layer of it (underneath makeup) and then you can't reapply it throughout the day since it will wipe away you makeup. Maybe apply it over the top of waterproof makeup?
