Doing the catch up again... I don't even want to contemplate what you all think I look like 
. Strangely enough, despite being a very visual person, I have weird associations with your usernames. So Enid is obviously out of a Blyton novel and just amusing herself on MN until she has to go back to boarding school. Dulci is a flamboyant Spanish transplant that risks the safety of her neighbourhood every day by cooking up artisanal dulce de leche in pressure cookers... and when Olli was still Hollin her other job was manning the doors at Hollister & Co. sending the 'uglies' away from buying their cheap tat 
. Pupsie obviously forces cola down poor little puppies I'll stop now... promise... 
okay one more, yongnian is obviously forever young .
CaroleMooney, you're currently not using a targeted actives routine just 'nice' skincare that doesn't do much beyond the basics of cleanse & moisturise. Have a read through of the Anti-Ageing Info Sheet linked in the OP, you're probably best off looking into getting a broad spectrum stand alone sunscreen for yearround use as a minimum and incorporating a retinol, AHA (Biologique Recherche is the place I'd look at for your concerns), Vitamin C, and Niacinamide. You're going to have to be consistent and patient taking in consideration your age and that wrinkles are already settled. You may also consider going down the prescription (and I do mean getting it prescribed not obtaining it from some dodgy site as you're more likely to do harm) route for a retinoid to see quicker results but it would be the only active you use alongside very diligent sun protection and you'd have to tolerate it well, which not everyone does.
I don't get grits or very little when I do the 50 shades technique but I usually have a delayed response so they'll come out a few days after with oil cleansing. Strangely enough the CosRx BHA does seem to perform better than PC BHA with this (whilst the CosRx did little for me otherwise).
Yes the '2x15ml' was about the Medik8 CE Theon, I'll have to think on it since there's so little Vit C viable formulations out there and most contain HA. In terms of Vit C or Retinol first, Vit C sees quicker results and is usually easier to build up quickly so it makes more sense to start there from a time management perspective.
I can't remember exactly anymore but I believe the 1% may be slightly stronger than the 2% but I'm not a 100% on that. The 1% is different in the sense that it is a more direct release so far more irritating and harder to tolerate but will probably give quicker results.
I don't know how the glamglow would do in the 50 shades technique JDSTER. It already contains a few acids (azelaic and BHA and possibly a PHA I think) so maybe it's overkill? Pore size is a tough one, especially if you've been dealing with stretched pores for a long time. I'd consider upping the Niacinamide use, I like to have it somewhere in my routine daily in the least.
otyt, the facetheory moisturiser is a little heavier in terms of occlusives so that may be a better choice for winter whilst the lighter CosRx lotion will be more useful in warmer temps. 
for your DM.
You still sound very dehydrated, what serum(s) are you currently using? I'm thinking you might benefit from doing the 7 skin method.
I was the one interested in Astalift, Dulci. I'm a sucker for anything Japanese and high in antioxidants but I doubt the Dutch TKMaxx sell them 
.
wilting, some people are sensitive to Niacinamide unfortunately. Have you used serozinc -I think the coupling of Nia + Zinc makes it such an effective product for acne prone skin provided you tolerate both well. You could consider trying a SAP based Vit C since they're a good pairing for acne prone skin (inhibits the bacteria really effectively). Mad Hippy do a version and Facetheory (if it's finally launched now). Less proven for pigmentation though. Gothamista recently made a video on pigmentation with some helpful info . Transxemic acid may be something to look into if Nia, Alpha Arbutin, and Vit C aren't working for you.
Stevie77, basically what JDSTER said. I only think combo-oily skin really do well with foaming cleansers (especially in a double cleansing context) provided they're not utilising drying and/or irritating surfactants. Get on a sunscreen first though!
What do you want from a Vit C, that dictates the product choice more than what we all consider 'good' on here. TO Caffeine is only effective in the sense that it depuffs water retention (ie. you wake up with slight puffiness but it would dissipate throughout the day whereas a fat deposit is just the same at all times). The dark circles claims on that product are highly questionable, there aren't really products out there that address that, only certain actives like Vit C and Retinol can help with their appearance.
Ah yes, Kiehl's Avocado Eye Cream was my eye cream for most of my twenties when my skin was vastly different from one place to the next I so don't miss those days. it is kind of the ideal eye cream when all you want is a decent eye cream and actually have need of one.
'Acnes' , I'm almost expecting a 'babes' to come after that Enid
nickpic, It sort of depends on the cause and how long it's been going for, the standard answer is usually BHA but I'd really need to know more tbh.
