Early 30s Skincare Routine

[TheDaydreamBelievers]

Hey, I have recently got quite into reading and researching skincare and am making changes to my own skincare and trying stuff out.

I was wondering what everyone's skincare routine is?

Skin type - combination, prone to hormonal acne on chin and around mouth, with dry cheeks.
Main aims - get rid of blemishes, establish long term anti aging

What I currently do:
Morning
Liz Earle Instant Boost Skin Tonic toner
Beautypie Super Healthy Skin daily moisturizer
Beautypie Featherlight SPF 50

Evening
Coconut oil to take off makeup
Liz Earle Cleanse and Polish with a cloth
Pixi Retinol Toner
Nivea Q10 Vitamin C Sleep Face Cream

What I'm thinking of changing - I have read the pixi retinol does nothing and am also TTC so will need to cut the retinol out in the longer term. I'm considering adding a vitamin C/E serum. I also feel like that Nivea moisturizer did a LOT when I first started with it but isnt anymore.

Keen to hear about what others are using and what works and doesnt!

36
Skin prone to flaking/dry but also acne prone

Am
Boots botanics all bright cleanser
Timeless vitamin C
Murad moisturiser (can't remember name!)
SPF body shop

Pm
Deviant oil or balm cleanser
Eye makeup remover
Hydrating or deviant acid toner
Skin and me (if not used acid) or murad revitalixir if I have used acid
Mother dirt moisturiser
Verso eye serum
Rapidlash

You need to see the dr about the blemishes, these things can spectacularly kick off if you don’t jump on them early (ask me how I know) that said I can’t see why you aren’t cleansing am.

@Fluffycloudland77 I think the blemishes are very much hormonal and related to the hormone shifts around my v recent MMC, so I think they will go away over time. They havent been an issue in the past. I might add in an am cleanser, thanks

@QueenPaws nice routine! Hows the rapidlash? I was trying a lash serum but I think its irritating my eyes so I stopped

Here's with the rapidlash, makes a huge difference

@QueenPaws great lashes!
