Recommendations for combination skin

I was wondering if anyone can recommend some skincare products for combinations skin. Currently using Liz Earle, but I have a shiny nose and chin and I get spots on my chin as well. Have tried Clinique stuff in the past, but that left my cheeks feeling really tight.

My skin is a little on the sensitive side and anything that would help delay the ageing process would be a bonus. Thanks

I've recently gone back to using Nivea Essentials day cream - the tube with a green lid. Smells lovely and the sebhorroeic dermatitis I'd been plagued with for several years has disappeared! i now wash my face with Pears soap as well, rather than using a face wash or wipes.

Superdrug Naturally Radiant HCC. Follow with Nip Fab extreme acid pads. Then Hydraluron gel. Then either the Naturally Radiant serum/moisturiser or Vit E range serum (again, both Superdrug).

I would head for the French pharmacy brands in Boots. I've been using them for a few years now and love them. I use the blue Bioderma Sebium cleanser or the Avene cleanance (or the bioderma sebium micellar water if feeling lazy) followed by the Avene cleanance Mat toner in the morning or a hyaluronic acid toner at night, then depending on how my skin feels I moisturise with either La Roche Posay's Toleriane Ultra (if it needs moisture and TLC), Effaclar H (my regular go-to), or Effaclar Duo for time of the month spots and oiliness.
