Orange peel cheeks help!

35F on Dianette for about 5 years now to help manage acne prone chin. Noticed in the past year my cheeks have huge pores.

I think theyre aging me and I'm really trying not to be upset by it, but it's starting to get me down. My place of work is quite warm and I have to catch an early train so I never bother with foundation.

I'm currently using cosrx low pH good morning cleanser and cosrx aloe soothing sun cream 50+ spf as a moisturiser. But I'm wondering if these are too drying and I need some moisture. I've always been a bit wary of oils due to acne outbursts but I'm starting to think I need to wash my cheeks separately to try and repair them.

Don't have tones of money so if anyone has any cheapish suggestions I would be grateful.
