Hi! I have an oily/combination skin and I want to minimize my pores but what i have right now have AHA/BHA ingredients, so basically everyday i always do exfoliating 😓

Based on my research, the ingredients that can minimize the pores are:
-AHA/BHA 
-Vitamin C
-Retinoids 
-Niacinamide

Right now i’m looking for serum that contains vitamin C and serum with retinol. 
I found out that we cannot mix aha/bha with vitamin C same with retinol. 

But on the other hand, what i’m currently using  have mild ingredients of aha/bha. 

Is it ok for me to just add the vitamin c serum after i use my cleanser and toner? 

Or should i find other product for cleanser and toner? Can you suggest some products that is suitable with vitamin C 

Hoping for your response. I’ve been thinking about this for weeks 😅

Minimize Pores with AHA/BHA & Vitamin C & Retinoids

Is it just me who wants to try different skincare products? 😂

I’m kinda getting obsessed with skincare and everytime I want to try something new I keep on checking the ingredients and asking myself “do i need this?”  Centella, mugworth, green tea, matcha, ceramides, peptides, vitamin c, retinol, propolis, etc.

I keep on reminding  myself “girl, simple skincare is way much better”  

And then my friend gave me a small bottle of Luxe Organix Power Glow Essence Toner because I really want to include vitamin C in my routine then BOOM!  Breakouts in! 😂 

I stopped using the toner and get back to my routine but i guess my acnes love my face cause they are still here on my face. 

I’m currently using: (maybe you can suggest to help my acne leave on my face 😂)
- cosrx low ph good morning cleanser
- cosrx bha power liquid (due to my acne, hope it works)
- the ordinary niacinamide serum
- cosrx advanced snail mucin 96 essence
- cosrx birch sap moisturizer 
- biore sunscreen

So am I the only one? 😂

Trying Different Skincare Products

Hi~~~ so i’m quite confused about this topic.

Steps, cleanser,toner, essence, serum, ampoule, eye cream, moisturizer, etc. 
Layering, from lightest to heaviest.

I’m a bit confused on how am i going to apply my products after the toner. 

For example, I’m using Cosrx Snail 96 essence and The Ordinary Niacinamide. Picky said that TO Niacinamide first then the essence. But I’ve checked also the other site and it’s the other way around. 

Do you apply a thick essence then a lightweight essence?  Then a watery ampoule? 

How are you applying your products?

Steps vs. Layering

Well while using this,  I think not soften my face and  i think its kinda pricey for a small bottle.

I kinda like this product,  the idea of the foaming cleanser and the bottle with small scrub. I used this after a month of using their rejuvinating set. While using this product, i noticed that my face is tightening.
