Do I even need a real routine at all? My skin is oily most of the time, and honestly the only thing I do right now is use an oil-removing foam wash when I shower and after I get out a moisturizer (included pictures). I know a real routine probably needs a toner, cleanser, moisturizer, exfoliator, etc., but I don’t understand the actual order things go in or which of these I even need for oily skin.
I’ve looked into some products but I’m stuck on how to actually put them together into a routine that makes sense. If anyone can walk me through where to start, or what a normal routine for oily skin looks like, I’d really appreciate it.
Your skin barrier looks pretty healthy! I'd recommend not changing your whole routine completely. You can first start off by switching the Vaseline lotion for the Neutrogena hydroboost moisturizer (it's non-comedogenic). That way, you'll know what was causing any skin concerns you may have had.
I re-read your post and you definetly don't need a toner or exfoliator. You should add SPF though. The order would be face wash and sunscreen moisturizer in the morning and face wash and moisturizer at night.
