I want to add something in my skincare routine

Hi! I am currently a beginner on sckincare and I am thinking of adding retinol in my routine because I have oily skin. My nose would always have black and white heads but I don't know if it's a right choice to add retinol. I also want to incorporate serums but I don't know what kind of serum should I use. My current routine is just foaming cleanser, moisturizing gel, and sunscreen. At night, I only cleanse and moisturize. Hope you could help me build my routine so I could invest in the right and good products. Thanks!

Retinol won’t do anything for the oiliness. For blackheads /witheheads Is suggest exfoliating 2/w with a chemical exfoliant or clay mask if your uncomfortable with the first. If you want to add a serum I’d suggest niacinamide as it helps with minimizing appearance of pores.

I don't think adding retinol only because you are oily is the right choice. I think if you add Exfoliating acids you will be happier, since it targets black and whiteheads.

Adding niacinamide is great to control sebum and prevent acne

This gentle exfoliating toner has helped me significantly reduce clogged pores, whiteheads, blackheads & closed comedones 💚 I use it once weekly as I use other mild exfoliators 2 other nights. You could consider using it 2 nights a week!
