How do you learn all this? Could you also explain your face routine? I'm taking down notes here.

Watching skincare youtube channels and going to a dermatologist.

My face care is a lot. I'd encourage you to find your own products and routine, but I'll list mine as an example:

Daily Mornings:

  • Wash face using a gentle face cleanser (usually in shower, after washing /conditioning hair)
  • Niacinamide ointment to minimize pores
  • face specific moisturizer
  • eye creme around eyes
  • Mineral sunscreen (re-apply again in middle of day)

Daily before bedtime:

  • Wash face with gentle face cleanser
  • Exfoliate face with lactic acid ointment (once per week: sub stronger AHA/BHA peeling solution)
  • Every other day, always skipping peel days: Adapalene (retinol) gel for wrinkle reduction
  • Niacinamide ointment to minimize pores
  • face specific moisturizer

Everything kinda has a purpose, so if you have questions please ask.
