Skin care for 11 yo DD

Hi, I’m after some basic skincare advice if anyone can help for my DD(11). I think she is starting to show some signs of her skin changing with puberty, but her skin is so different to mine I’m not sure what’s best to get her! No spots yet but she’s got oily skin I think, with some dry patches on her cheeks and round her nose and it seems quite sensitive. I’ve got very very dry skin with rosacea and eczema and she says my moisturiser ( cerave for dry to very dry skin) stings if she uses it so not surprisingly really I think she needs different products to me but it’s left me a bit at a loss.

Any recommendations for a cleanser and a moisturiser? Keeping it simple would be ideal, she’s not into long skin care routines and at the moment just washes with a flannel and water so don’t want to go too extreme!

My daughter (10) has just started using the Byoma cleansing balm and the Bubble water moisturiser and it’s already made the world of difference to her skin! She was getting blackheads on her nose and chin and they have disappeared within a week of using it, and her skin looks lovely and glowy.

Previously she used the simple face wash which was horrid!

Thanks @Lj8893 will take a look at byoma and bubble water - haven’t heard of those! and also for the tip to avoid simple.

Both brands are very “in” at the moment with the younger generation. But Byoma came with a recommendation from a friend of mine who has lovely skin. Both are mid-priced ranges, bubble is slightly more expensive.
