Got closed comedones that are stubborn?

Alright so I started using azelaic acid 15% as a first and noticed how my comedones were starting to turn into white heads. I absolutely hate clogged pores and comedones, they come so fast and stay for the longest it's extremely annoying. So I started with pea size amount and then a moisturizer (any, without any pore clogging Ingredients) Minimize your skincare routine, check your cleanser Yes you heard me right, cleansers that have pore clogging ingredients will do you so bad. Keep the skincare minimal because you'll be using acids (BHA,AHA, LACTIC, GLYCOLIC, AZELAIC, RETINOL) be patient and hang in there :)

I'm going to have to do that. I like to routine and sometimes I randomly add something in. Lol. I try to get really good expensive face products. What do you think about Tata Harper? Or ELF?

I completely understand the whole adding skincare stuff to your routine and a 7 step. I usually love talking to myself imagining I'm in a vogue makeup tutorial and doing stuff to make face. Haven't heard of tata Harper, although I personally like elf. Just be careful of the pore clogging ingredients (you can check it online if it has any) and trust me having expensive products just because they're expensive and psychologically you're like omg I gave sm money for this, it better work. It sometimes doesn't and it's a huge bummer. I noticed the less skincare stuff I used the more happy my skin was, like it's on a summer break lol. Sunscreen is v v important, I'd suggest to invest in a good sunscreen (may it be expensive or not)
