Use a salicylic acid if your skin can handle it every night. I’ve noticed a big improvement with consistent use and my skin looks like it has no pores on my cheeks anymore

I use toner, serum, eye cream, moisturizer, and then sunscreen. Is this good?

So it’s called a tincture, you make it yourself and idk what brand 😭 but it’s 1 part castor oil 1 part jojoba 15-20 drops tea tree depending on how much you make, I just drop it on my face (w/o touching the dropper to my skin) and rub it in it goes on thick so you don’t need a lot but it works istg after that I use glycolic acid the ordinary

Wha kind of toner & serum, and are you exfoliating. Make sure your getting 7+ hours a sleep a night, drinking a lot of water, eating a diet at least 80% of healthy foods, and kill stress (this is super important). If you do all that and your skin doesn’t start to clear up seek professional help like a dermatologist, they’ll likely put you on tretinoin or Accutane, or even tell you something I’m missing, all in all take it one day at a time.
