items As someone with acne prone, oily, and sensitive skin, I have struggle with finding the right products for my skin. Here are some of the products I believe are must haves after 10+ years of trial and error
Budget friendly price for high end ingredients necessary for skin health
Cocokind ceramide barrier serum
This product targets oily skin, large pores, and acne. I used for a few years and stopped for a while. One of my biggest regrets!
The Ordinary Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1% Serum
Sunscreen is so important to skin health. As someone with oily skin, it’s taken years to find a sunscreen that will not feel gross and oily. This sunscreen is perfect for oily and acne prone skin. Ps. No it does not leave your skin green at all. It a...
Hero Cosmetics Force Shield SPF 30 Sunscreen 50ml
This retinol was a turning point for my skin. Retinol is a product that helps with basically all skin issues including acne, wrinkles, dark spots, etc. Retinol can be drying but this product moisturizes your skin while still delivering retinol result...
Rescue Retinol Nighttime Renewing Cream 30ml
Oil cleanser is important in clearing up blocked pores and removing makeup. I’ve tried many oil cleansers but this one does not leave residual grease feeling. Use oil cleanser then follow with a gentle face wash.
BYOMA Milky Oil Cleanser - Hydrating Face Wash 3.38 fl oz
Great gentle yet effective cleanser in fighting acne
CeraVe Acne Control Cleanser 2% Salicylic Acid
These patches are helpful in extracting gunk while protecting it from dirt and grease
TKTK 443 Count Hydrocolloid Pimple Patches

CeraVe Oil Control Moisturizing Gel-Cream
Great if you want sheer coverage and skin care in one. Fights acne while providing coverage.
Maybelline Dream Pure BB Cream 2% Salicylic
Great alternative if retinol is not something you feel is working for you. This is a strong retinoid (a product known to be stronger than retinol) and can be bought over counter
Differin Acne Treatment Gel 0.1% Adapalene 15g
Great cheap (around $5) product that helps fight acne without drying skin.
The Ordinary Salicylic Acid 2% Acne Serum
Great to use once in a while to improve overall skin health. Make sure to moisturize after since it can be very drying
