okay so CURRENTLY this is the routine that has worked. note: i have combination to dry skin

cleanser: Hada Labo Super Hyaluronic Acid Foaming Wash / Holika Holika Aloe Facial Cleansing Foam (i use either depending in mood but i noticed holika holika tends to strip more moisture)

exfoliator: Paula’s Choice Skin Perfecting 2% BHA Liquid Exfoliant

toner: Torriden DIVE-IN Low Molecule Hyaluronic Acid Multi Pad (i use 3 pads — 2 for cheeks, 1 for forehead — per usage)

serum: Nutox Youth Restoring Advanced Serum Concentrate (skin repair)

moisturiser: Innisfree Green Tea Seed Cream (it has fragrance though so i wouldnt recommend to those with sensitive skin)

sunscreen: Beauty of Joseon Relief Sun: Rice + Probiotics (SPF50+ PA++++)
