I’m new and a little confused..
Our take
Hey there, skincare enthusiasts! Welcome to the world of skincare, where opinions are as varied as the products themselves. Our friend here is navigating the often-confusing landscape of routines and ingredients at just 18, dealing with acne, redness, and dryness. Currently, they're using a cleanser, tonic, moisturizer, and SPF from Plouise and La Roche-Posay, but they're unsure if these are the right picks for long-term results. If you have tips, product recommendations, or insights into this routine, your advice could make a real difference.
Hello everyone! I’m pretty new to skincare and have a hard time determining if my routine is good or not…
I’ve tried doing research but every person, every source and every piece of research I read seems to have different opinions on things.
Im 18 and I have some acne and redness on my cheeks that I want to improve. My skin is also very dry if I don’t use any products. I also rarely wear any make up.
In the morning I wash my face with the plouise foam and glow cleanser, I use a tołpa tonic, then I put on the plouise pump me pretty moisturiser and I apply la Roche posey spf 50.
And before bed I do the same thing but without the SPF of course.
I don’t know if these products are good long term. Online people seem to like them on blog posts but I’m scared those could be payed ads. I know the Plouise products are cherry scented but my skin doesn’t seem irritated by it?
Should I be using other things too? If anyone has any tips or recommendations I’d be very thankful. Thank you🫶

- Completely lost with skincare and don’t know where to startHi everyone, I’m completely lost with skincare and I don’t really know where to start. Right now I use a serum from The Ordinary (niacinamide + zinc) and a CeraVe moisturizer, but honestly I feel like they’re not doing much for me. I have a lot of little red marks spots on my face, and I also think I might have something similar to rosacea because my skin gets red and sensitive (specially after a hot shower or temperature changes) but I’ve never had it checked so I don’t want to self-diagnose. My skin also feels really dry and flaky. The weird thing is that the more I moisturize, the more it feels like my skin depends on it. If I forget moisturizer for even one day, my face starts peeling a lot. I don’t know if my skin barrier is damaged, if I’m using the wrong products, or if I’m just missing something obvious. I really love the Korean glass skin look, but I have no idea how people actually get there, especially with dry/sensitive skin. I don’t want to buy a million random products, so I’d love help building a very simple beginner routine and knowing what ingredients or products I should look for or avoid. Thanks so much in advance. I’m genuinely starting from zero here, so any simple advice would be really helpful. submitted by /u/Valuable_Air_1747 [link] [comments]
- Skincare beginner picks? Anyone who didn’t really do basic skincare before?I used to never really use toner or lotion, you know? My skin was naturally oily, so I hated anything that felt greasy and didn’t want to put on heavy products. But now… I guess I’m getting older. Right after washing my face, or even just sitting and working during the day, I can actually feel my skin getting dry and kind of stinging?! So I panicked a bit, searched for something new for sensitive skin, bought it, and started using it. I think it’s finally getting a bit better now. When I was younger, I didn’t need any skincare and my skin was totally fine so I don’t know why it’s suddenly become this dry. Am I the only one who’s been kind of clueless about skincare? Anyone else who didn’t use anything even into their 30s? Also, I’d love recommendations on what else I should add. submitted by /u/Every-Bus-5858 [link] [comments]
- 25 and my skin looks ROUGH, help!!Hi! I am a 25F with skin that shouldn't look as bad as it does. Wrinkles on my forehead, lots of texture, and dark spots from acne. My skin is hard to read in terms of oily vs dry but it is acne prone and definitely can get dry at times and oily at other times. Right now, this has been my night routine for a few months. It hasn't been great in eliminating lines, spots or texture but my skin has felt more hydrated. - Round lab foam cleanser - Anua peach toner - Prescription tret - Cetaphil daily moisturizing lotion for dry sensitive skin I am ashamed to admit it but in the morning I usually just throw on SPF 50 and call it good. I have been doing some research but I am getting kinda overwhelmed with all the info I am getting. Would these be better routines to match my needs? Do any of these products interact? Night: - Ma:nyo pure cleansing oil - Vanicream cleanser - Byoma milky toner - Prescription tret/The Ordinary Azelaic acid suspension 10% cream, alternating every other day - Avene Cicalfate protective cream Morning: - Vanicream cleanser - Byoma milky toner - SPF moisturizer submitted by /u/ranch518 [link] [comments]
