My face is dry 24/7.. well actually when I wake up, it's okay,but after I wash it, it's dry.. And I don't have any typse of moisturizer.. so I have this face sunscreen that I put on.. and it really helps.. but is it good to put it on even though I'm not going anywhere, and won't be exposed to the sun?

Yes, seems even if you are not going anywhere, it will protect you from the Sun, as you walk to the corner shop.

There are many moisturizers that require a small amount of protection against the sun. Although it is said that you should wear sunscreen every day, unless you are planning to bathe in the sun for more than 20 minutes per day, it isn't entirely necessary. If you live somewhere with a warm to hot climate most of the year, the sunscreen may be a good idea. There is no reason why not to wear a moisturizer and sunscreen at the same time. I would put the moisturizer on first thing in the morning or when you get out of the shower/finish washing your face. Do not apply the sunscreen until the moisturizer has absorbed, preferably about 10 minutes before going outside. If you are going to be indoors all day, or if you wear makeup on your face such as foundation or concealer, the sunscreen isn't necessary 24/7.
