Skincare regime - my face needs your help!

I spend majority of time outdoors and I have absolutely no consistent skincare regime. Please guide me, specific products if you can!!
Very much need help... 46yrs old, skin dehydrated around eyes (some kind of reaction to something made eyelids crack and have tiny cuts earlier this year, still very dry, flaky and puffy), tendency to rosacea / redness on cheeks, plenty of lines, also dark circles under eyes (those have been there since 20's). Such a pretty picture!!! It is getting me down. Especially as moving to a remote location and Covid have meant no trips for any kind of facial help for over a year and none to come for the foreseeable future, so my face is also melting and sagging delightfully.
I am in your hands Smile thank you.

SPF 50 on your face always
I like Biore Watery Essence.

Watch some Nadine Baggott videos. She recommends a very simple regime and then products at all price points.

Basically:
AM
Cleanse
Vit C serum
Hydrate
SPF 50

PM
Cleanse
Hydrate

You can add in specific serums /treatments (acid toner for exfoliation, hyaluronic acid for moisture, retinol for anti ageing, if you want them, but that's the basic routine

You might like La Roche Posay rosacea range or their toleriane range.

If you have rosacea skip the retinol, and use azelaic acid.

AM
Cleanse
Hydrate
SPF

you can add serums here - vit c/hyaluronic acid

PM
cleanse
Whatever acid (azelaic)
Hydrate

Thank you for advice. I'm always impressed when I see the list of useful products people manage to employ, but confused about what order and when. I will watch those videos.
