Is this a good Routine plan?

I have oily combination skin and made a hypothetical morning and night routine. I just wanna make sure none of the products will interfere with eachother, or if the products are right for my skin type. If you have alternate recommendations I'll take them, and also I need eye cream recommendations! Edit: After reading everyone's comments, I'll be switching out my salicylic cleanser with my matcha cleanser every other night. Especially when I use retinol!

Your morning routine looks pretty good! The only criticism I have about your nighttime routine is regarding the actives you included. You should never mix BHA & retinol together in one routine unless you're experienced & you know your skin can handle it. I'd suggest switching out the salicylic acid cleanser for the matcha one or simply removing the retinol serum on days you use the BHA cleanser. You can alternate between the two (ex. retinol one night & BHA cleanser another night) other than that, I can't say if all the products will match well with your skin but it looks pretty good to me :)

Agree with @LittleDoe and also, you may be overexfoliating if you use both exfoliating cleanser and exfoliating toner daily. Get into the routine gradually 👌

I've been using salicylic acid products so I'm not TOO worried but I'll definitely keep that in mind!

morning routine looks great! the night routine looks a bit "heavy" to me, lots of actives in one routine. i'd use different actives on different nights, maybe try using the B lab Matcha cleanser on some nights to give your skin a break from the BHA 🌷

Okay, that's totally what I'm gonna do. I tend to go overboard with actives not gonna lie 👀

Agree with above... otherwise, everything else looks good. I am curious why you use 2 toners in the morning. I may add the Cosrx essence and remove 1 toner if it is for me 😅❤️

I'll be using the cosrx toner as an exfoliant 3-4 times a week if that makes sense.

Your morning routine is already good. Are you planning to use AHA/BHA toner from cosrx everyday? For your night time routine you should not use a salicylic Acid Cleanser in the same routine with retinol.

On the nights I use retinol I plan on using the matcha cleanser instead, and for the aha/BHA toner I'll probably only use it 2-3 times a week at first.
