I've been using this skin care routine for the past couple months. It has taken my dry, textured skin and has made it so much more hydrated and smooth. I also have acne-prone skin (mostly hormonal) and none of these products have seemed to cause or w...

Morning Routine
My morning skin refresh routine - great for makeup prep. Each product is listed in the order that I would normally apply them.
I love this cleanser for my dry skin - it doesn't feel dry and tight-feeling after using it.
CeraVe Hydrating Foaming Oil Cleanser
I mostly use this at night, but sometimes do in the morning as well. This is great for reducing redness and discoloration.
*Start slow with this. I recommend using it every few days at first without any other actives (azelaic acid, retinols, etc).
Anua Azelaic Acid
I LOVE this Bubble serum! So hydrating and one of my favorite parts of my morning skincare routine.
Bubble Water Slide Hydrating Serum
If you get puffy, tired undereyes in the morning this is great to use. Put it in the fridge for extra effectiveness. I don't use this everyday, just as needed when my undereyes really need it.
The Inkey List - Caffeine Eye Cream
I ALWAYS use a moisturizing barrier cream, morning and night. I like using this in the morning since it's lightweight.
8.0 oz Daily Moisturizing Lotion - CeraVe | Ulta Beauty
This is a great everyday sunscreen to use on your face. Very pretty/lightweight on the skin and no white cast.
Haruharu Wonder Black Rice Moisture Sunscreen
Night Routine
My night routine - great for fully cleansing, healing, and protecting the skin barrier overnight.
Great for getting off makeup at the end of the day without stripping moisture
CeraVe Hydrating Oil Cleanser
I like to do a double cleanse sometimes at night with this if I feel like the oil-based cleanser alone isn't cutting it. This cleanser is also great for acne.
CeraVe Salicylic Acid Cleanser
I like alternating this and one of my retinols every other night. I feel like this has evened out my skin tone and has reduced post-acne redness a lot.
*Start slow with this. I recommend using it every few days for a few weeks at first without any other actives (azelaic acid, retinols, etc).
Anua Azelaic Acid
Adapaline is such an underated retinol! I use this every other night (alternating with azelaic acid) on days when I have breakouts.
*Start slow with this. A very tiny amount goes a long way, and I recommend using it every few days for a few weeks at first without any other actives (azelaic acid, retinols, etc).
Differin Adapalene Gel
A great, gentle retinol cream. I use this every other night (alternating with azelaic acid) when I don't have active breakouts.
*Start slow with this. I recommend using it every few days for a few weeks at first without any other actives (azelaic acid, retinols, etc).
Good Molecules Gentle Retinol Cream
I love me some Vanicream! So underated! I love that this is thick, so it works to moisturize and protect my skin barrier overnight. My skin is SO hydrated when I wake up.
