the ordinary
Slightly more than a typical ordinary serum; however, worth the couple extra bucks. Still affordable and definitely have felt a difference in skin barrier.
Soothing & Barrier Support Serum
I use this with moisturizer at night. I do not typically use every night because it does have exfoliating properties and I do not want to risk damaging my skin barrier.
Azelaic Acid Suspension 10% for Exfoliation & Even Skin Tone
Viral for a reason, used for years and always yielded a good result.
The Ordinary Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1%

Alpha Arbutin 2% + HA Brightening Serum for Uneven Skin

Niacinamide Serum

PanOxyl Acne Foaming Wash Benzoyl Peroxide 10%
I love this toner to use a couple times a week. It is an exfoliant so probably don't use everyday, but I use at night a couple times a week.
Clarifying Exfoliant 2% Salicylic Acid
One of the best pimple patches in my opinion.
Overnight Spot Patches
Perfect spot treatment that I actually see a difference with when I use it.
Adapalene Gel USP, 0.1% Acne Treatment
byoma
I love using this before face wash when I have a full face of makeup on. Helps make makeup removal a lot easier.
Melting Balm Cleanser
I have tried two different retinols and this one was my favorite. Especially because it can be catered to more sensitive skin, so more inclusive. Also great price.
