I know it's been done to death but please help me find a good cleanser and moisturiser?

I'm 34, Asian skin, lots of acne scars and still get big lumpy outbreaks on my jawline. Dry sensitive skin.

I have to wear waterproof mascara or my lashes don't stay up (some weird thing that started around a year ago...droopy lashes even after curlingConfused ) and I wear makeup everyday.

So I need a really good cleanser. I've tried double cleansing? But found it too harsh and such a faff with the washcloths.

And I need a decent day and night moisturiser. I've been using no 7 serum and night cream but I'm now wondering if that's also responsible for all the jaw outbreaks.

Any ideas for a cleanser and day/night moisturiser for me please??

Agree with kundry's advice to change your routine slowly, otherwise your skin will just flare up anyway. I've got dry sensitive skin too, and I'd second the Cetaphil, and the Paula's Choice BHA recommendation - it seems to have calmed down my rosacea. I use the 1% BHA lotion; there are different strengths and formulations depending on your skintype, so you can start gently and then build up if you need to.

At night, I'm using Paula's Choice Resist retinol cream, which seems quite good, and I also like the Body Shop Vitamin E Serum-in-Oil for hydrating.
