What face serum and SPF moisturiser do you use daily?

I've never found a combo that I love / stick with so looking for some guidance. Price range wise I've tried everything from Olay to Vichy. Looking mid-range but willing to spend more on something amazing. I look like crap after having my baby and think some good skin products will set me back on the track to normality. What would you recommend? Thank you in advance!

I use Kiehls serum and moisturiser however probably going to go for a cheaper face cream when this one runs out. Do like serum though

I use The Ordinary from deciem mostly now. The sacylic acid totally cleared my skin and the other acids I do once a week or so keep me looking a bit brighter. I also love Caudilie vino perfect. The night cream with glycolic in it is the best I've ever used. Discovered it whilst on holiday in France a couple of years ago. I'm mid 40s now so have use stuff that's a bit more active. Spf I use biore 50 from Korea. Takes ages to arrive but is great for under make up as it's really light.

I use a Paula's Choice serum, followed by an azaelic acid or vitamin c boost (my skin was really dull and these help a lot) and I then use Biore watery essence SPF 50 before make up. At night I use Retin-A (0.05%) which also helps a lot with skin tone and texture.
A brightening facial sheet mask once a week also helps me look less dull.

Soap & Glory rejuvenating serum & Olay Complete! Sorted my skin right out too!

The Ordinary here mostly as well. I use the plant based squaline at night, alpha lipoic acid 2/3 times a week, the daily moisturiser with HA in the mornings with caffeine serum for under eyes. And Biore watery essence spf 50.

Touché eclat primer is magical and makes my foundation look amazing even with no sleep/crap skin.

No serum.

LRP SPF.

Is that greasy under make up though @RuggyPeg ? Or does it give a good base?

Ditto The Ordinary

Eucerin even brighter day cream spf 30 - probably the first moisturiser I have kept buying over and over.

Serum - I am currently using a sample of Caudalie SOS vino stuff which is awesome, most recent prior to this I used Korres wild rose serum which was lovely.

I really like korres wild rose sleeping facial - had that in a sample and I’m now on my 2nd or 3rd pot.

I wash with Clarisonic and lancome gel eclat.

My skin is definitely brighter, but I have no idea which of the above makes the difference!

I don't find it even remotely greasy.
