Hey, I'm hoping someone will be able to point me in the right direction with my skincare regime. I'm forever being influenced to buy things and feel like I spend a fortune in space NK and the likes and I've now got a collection of lotions and potions that I really don't know what I need to do with !!

For info, I'm 39 have a few fine lines but not too bad (yet) and want to keep it this way. I have some melasma on my cheeks which I have tranexamic acid and pigmanorm for (which I need to start using regularly). Around 18months ago I had acne of my chin and jaw which only shifted with a prescription. I have standard pores on nose etc but forehead can be quite dry.

Basically I'm really useless and tend to hope that just by buying a product it'll somehow start working by osmosis while it lives on my bathroom shelf and I forget to put it in a routine.

Hmm.

So here is a list of some of the lotions and potions I have

Cleanser : cetaphil daily, eve lom oil cleanser (for when I've worn make up - not regularly at the mo)

Dr Dennis gross - universal daily peel (I like these but woah expense so I don't use daily )
Dr DG bit c + collagen serum
Dr DG stress so's eye cream
Dr DG dark spot defence spf 50
Dr DG ferulic + retinol overnight face serum
Dr DG ferulic + retinol eye serum
The ordinary hyaluronic acid 2%

I like Weleda skin food face cream tho maybe it's a little too rich for my T zone
I have other creams - Kate Somerville exfolikate and Ks goat milk moisturiser

I have a couple of masks, my favourite is Kota turmeric exfoliating mask tho it literally looks like 💩

Does anyone feel like weighing in and letting me know what should be my must-uses/in the bin/anything I'm missing?
I would be eternally grateful
