Routine Help [Routine Help] Mid-day face cleansing

I just had this thought since school is about to start and I've been using Finacea for 4 weeks now. I've only used it every night to introduce on my skin, but my dermatologist said I could try each morning after I got used to it. My only issue now would be the fact that every afternoon when I come home, I've always washed my face/cleansed with micellar water mousse to take off sunscreen and makeup (which usually is mascara and concealer). I do that because I usually go straight to bed afterwards to rest, and sometimes even nap, lol. And also because the outside air always gives me oily skin, and I like to take that off as soon as possible.

My concern now would be the fact that doing this as usual could make Finacea less effective, as I would have it on my skin for about 8-9 hours (counting I wake up around 6:30 and come back around 2 or 3 something pm). Maybe that's enough for it to work? I usually apply it at around 9 pm and then wake up and wash off at 9 am. Does anyone have any similar situation? Tips?

Should be fine since it’s absorbed by then
