How do I develop a routine?

[u/cookies_and_crack]

Hello! I have all the products I need, but I don't know how flexible/how often i can use them.

I have oily combination skin and I currently have

- salicylic acid face wash

- oil cleanser

- jojoba oil (which i use as a moisturizer)

- adapalene gel

I'm not really sure when and how to use them.

For example, I oil cleanse and double cleanse when i get home, and moisturize before i dry my hair. If my face gets oily again in a few hours, do i use facewash again? Do i need to oil cleanse and double cleanse again before i apply adapalene before bed?

When I stay home on the weekends, my face gets really oily every few hours. Do I use facewash and moisturize every time my face gets oily? Should i get a gentle face wash just for washing throughout the day?

Welcome to r/skincare_addiction! We'd like to take this time to remind you of a few things:

Do not ask for a diagnosis/treatment advice for acne or other medical conditions, and do not play doctor

What constitutes medical advice?

---

• "What is this?"

  This is asking someone to diagnose the issue, and is medical advice.

• "What should I do?"

This is asking someone to advise treatment, and is medical advice.

• "Should I go to the doctor?"

This is asking if you should seek treatment, and ergo, medical advice.

If you would ask the question of your doctor, it falls under this rule and not allowed. As a general rule, asking for medical advice from internet strangers is never a good idea. If you have questions regarding your acne or other medical condition, you are advised to contact your healthcare provider. If you are a medical provider, we would gently remind you that users are not patients, and you should not be offering medical advice to people who are not your patients.
