QRx Labs CE w/ Squalane Question

Am I getting any good out of this product by applying it last in my routine?

I don't want to put it on first since it's an oil and oils should go on last.  But I think you guys said C should go on first.  So far I'm using after essences and serums.  Mixing it with my moisturizer as my last step.  I won't be using it tonight because I'm going to use the Microderma-thingy.  I'm just applying Aveeno tonight after I tear the skin off my face lol

Normally VC serums go on first. It's unsual to have VC in an oil form so you can apply that last or cocktail it with another serum and apply it that way. Just to be clear about that QRx product...it's primarily a moisturizer (oil) which is enriched with vitamins (C+E). You can even apply another VC serum beneath, or cocktail with, that QRx product if you want to get the benefits of both. When you do that there is a boosting effect between the various VC derivatives meaning each VC becomes slightly more effective when together rather than using each alone.

Thank you very much!  So I could apply my Misha Vita C after essence, then other active serums and then the QRx CE in Squalane mixed with my Tatcha moisturizer?
