I have a moisturizer by neutrogena which has retinol in it and a spf of 15. I want to use it in the day time and put a light foundation over it. Does foundation spreak okay over retinol. I would usually use oil of olay but I want to try the retinol. I also have a night cream with retinol in it.

Yes, apply the moisturizer first & then let it sink in for a few minutes before applying foundation. Make sure the foundation doesn't have salicylic acid, menthol, or a high alcohol content to avoid irritating your skin/over loading on active ingredients.

The best thing is to try it! Very few make-ups will not go over moisturiser, check on thr bottle, it sometimes says. Make sure you leave a 15 min (ish) gap between applying each product.
