It does take effect before your damage shield but it technically does not make the shield stronger, just reduces the damage it takes.
Every percentage mitigation increase or percentage damage debuff applied to enemy makes shields stronger and by stronger I mean that enemie will have to use more attacks to outdmg the same shield.
