I think it would be ok to use toners and serums! For my dark spots I love to use products with snail mucin! Such as the cosrx snail 96 mucin power essence! And the cream!

My superstar ingredient for maintaining oily skin is niacinamide. It's amazing for balancing sebum production. You can certainly use serums so long as the ingredients are compatible with your skin and compatible with your routine (no counteractive ingredients). Luckily niacinamide is pretty friendly and can be mixed with most ingredients. After about a month of use my skin was drastically improved on the oily factor.

Yes, I hear Niacinamide is the best. I've been using toner that has niacinamide and so far I never had pimple. Thanks for this, definitely! I will continue using skincare products with Niacinamide in it.

Niacinamide is your best friend! It's good for oily skin because it helps to control sebum production. It's also an antioxidant that helps to fade hyperpigmentation. Although you cannot change the size of pores, Niacinamide does help to enhance how they look. So it's definitely a super star ingredient! I recommend the following product:

I recommend this serum from Axis-Y! It's lightweight, but also feels slightly moisturizing (I don't think you'd need a moisturizer in the morning anymore if you're oily and it's hot where you are). It has niacinamide at a good concentration and other beneficial ingredients as well.

I think vitamin c is a good one to use. You may not notice the effects straight away but over the years it will pay off. Azelaic acid can help too. Also wearing spf helps prevent new ones or worsen existing dark spots. You can also try tranexamic acid. I also tried this Differin serum, it contains 2% hydroquinone and the bottle lasted me 2 months (used twice daily). I saw good results with that! But you can only use hydroquinone for 2 or 3 months at a time, so i will be trying it again soon!
