This week I turned 30 and got a haircut, looking at the selfie I took after I thought my skin finally looks like its in a better place so I thought I’d share my routine! As a guy that has lurked this sub for a while I thought I’d try and help the other dudes here who feel a bit lost at trying to look our best.
Been trying to find the right regime I can stick to for years - started using my moms and various SOs face stuff, using just about every trick in the book that we all know only makes our skin worse. The routine I’ve settled on now is…
AM:
CeraVe Foaming cleanser in the shower - Been using it for years. Works well. I can only use it once a day though, dries my skin otherwise. - https://www.amazon.com/CeraVe-Foaming-Facial-Cleanser-Washing/dp/B01N1LL62W/ref=sr_1_1?crid=168GZIOVSWILM&keywords=cerave+foaming+facial+cleanser&qid=1569373936&sprefix=cer%2Caps%2C186&sr=8-1
TO Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1% - Started using this a few months back and it seems to be helping a lot. Blemishes fade faster, are less apparent throughout the morning, I like it - https://theordinary.com/product/rdn-niacinamide-10pct-zinc-1pct-30ml?redir=1
TO Hyaluronic Acid 2% + B5 - The first day I used this was the first day in years I can remember not having an oil field on my face at the end of the workday and not seeing pools of oil on the bridge of my glasses when I take them off, I think having properly hydrated skin has really help keep my acne at bay and skin clearer - https://theordinary.com/product/rdn-hyaluronic-acid-2pct-b5-30ml?redir=1
TO Natural Moisturizing Factors + HA - Favorite moisturizer I’ve used and I’ve tried a handful - https://theordinary.com/product/rdn-natural-moisturizing-factors-ha-30ml?redir=1
Sunscreen - currently using a mineral sunscreen from CVS, unclear on brand. Not the best, not the worst. Going to give TO’s Mineral UV Filters a try next.
PM:
OCM with Snow River Mineral oil - Used it for about 4 years now, works extremely well, wipe it off with microfibers I get from Amazon in bulk - https://www.amazon.com/Snow-River-7V03389-cutting-boards/dp/B0000CFSV9/ref=sr_1_1?crid=3428RJM9PZTOA&keywords=snow+river+wood+oil&qid=1569374251&sprefix=snow+river+%2Caps%2C168&sr=8-1
TO Glycolic Acid 7% Toning Solution - I use this every other day, sometimes every 2. I was using it every day but since stopping that I’ve found my skin feels a bit better - https://theordinary.com/product/rdn-glycolic-acid-7pct-toning-solution-240ml?redir=1
TO Hyaluronic Acid 2% + B5 - Again, see above!
**TO Vitamin C Suspension 23%
TO Natural Moisturizing Factors + HA - Again, see above!
Once a week:
TO Salicylic Acid 2% Masque - This stuff makes my skin feel amazing afterwords. Like, washing it off and my skin feels noticeably different. Since using it I’ve been more blemish free. Generally use this Wednesdays once a week - https://theordinary.com/product/rdn-salicylic-acid-2pct-masque-50ml?redir=1
TO AHA 30% + BHA 2% Peeling Solution** - This stuff gives me a very similar experience to the Masque but I feel the differences the next morning. My skin looks more even and healthier. I use this typically on Sundays but may skip a week if I’m feeling dry. - https://theordinary.com/product/rdn-aha-30pct-bha-2pct-peeling-solution-30ml?redir=1
Happy to answer any questions about the regime or products! I'm planning to add a few more TO products to my regime soon and can update any successes later on. So far, everything above will be a constant part of my regime - I'm even about to bulk order most of the TO stuff so I don't run out anytime soon haha.
Hope this helps others! :)
E: I posted this earlier this week but it was removed as it was a selfie and not Friday, so I'm reposting today so anyone interested in it can see.
I've had KP since I was a kid and am finally getting handle on it in my 30s. My current routine is glycolic lotion twice a day, creams on the affected areas 3-4 times a day, and then physical exfoliation and using zinc or sulfur soap a couple times a week to keep the bumps at bay. But since skincare is YMMV, here's the exhaustive list of almost two decades of treatment, in case some of these other things will work for you!
100% of the items can be purchased via Amazon in the US - it's pretty much the only way I shop.
Beginner Level
If your KP has just appeared, focus on physical+chemical exfoliation and moisturizing. Look for lotions with the following ingredients:
Paula's Choice and Derma Doctor's KP duty both work well because they combine a few of these, but you can also get Amlactin, Eucerin and Glytone which are more focused on a single ingredient. Nearly all of the Eucering, Gold Bond, Cetaphil, etc. creams that work have one of the above ingredients, so take a look at the back of the bottle or on CosDna to figure out what works best for you. Prescription creams include Carmol 40 and Ammonium Lactate in higher concentrations.
Physical exfoliation includes:
My dermatologist also recommended moisturizing CONSTANTLY, which really helped smoothe my arms. According to his instructions, "constantly" meant that I needed to be able to feel the lotion on my skin 24/7 for at least 3 weeks, which for me meant a new layer of cream every hour or two. Pretty much any moisturizing lotion or cream will do. I'm partial to [CeraVe Moisturizing Cream] (https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B013GDK3SQ/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1) (creams are less watered down than lotions, and this one drys down wonderfully, leaveing my skin feeling buttery but not sticky). Lush dream cream and Aveeno are also faves.
Intermediate Level
If a bit of exfoliation and moisture aren't working, you might want to consider if there are other skin conditions making your KP worse. For example, it turned out for me I had some fungal skin issues that made my KP bumps more inflamed. Topical steroids can help, but use with care as they can cause skin thinning. Try adding something with the following ingredients in to see if any of the following work. Also talk with your derm about getting a mild prescription treatment that might include an antibacterial or steroid component.
As others have mentioned, sunlight also helps. Either give yourself 15 minutes of sun a day or look into UV treatments.
Finally, consider dietary factors – for me cutting out dairy, sugar, and gluten when I really want crystal clear skin makes a big difference. Adding healthy oils and fats to your diet can also improve skin quality.
Advanced Level
I not only have KP, but years of scarring and redness (Post Inflammatory Erythema, or PIE) from picking at the bumps when I was younger. Laser treatments have almost 100% gotten rid of this and made my arms the smoothest and clearest they've been in almost two decades. However, these are pricey (for me, ~$200 a treatment and it took 4) and a serious time commitment. But if nothing else works, consider it.

Same here. It has made a lot of difference for me.
Witch Hazel
Moisturizer
Face wash
That’s all 3 things I use. The last 2 have lasted me 5 months and I use them both morning and night. The toner lasts about 2-3 months.
Check out the ScA routine, which includes a sample routine and product recs. If you want a list of one product recs, I'd go for
A routine with these products could look like
AM:
PM:
You can always switch out the Hydrating Cleanser for the Foaming Cleanser later one.
When introducing the Stridex, remember to start slow - a couple times a week at first, slowly increasing in frequency to every other day, then finally once daily if your skin likes it. If you experience irritation or any other signs of overexfoliation, reduce the frequency of the Stridex.
When introducing new products, do so one at a time and wait a week or two before introducing the next. That way if a product breaks you out you can easily identify and drop the culprit.
You could use your BHA (Stridex) in the AM instead - this is what I do for added oil control throughout the day.

I was just diagnosed myself -- July 2017, so I'm trying to figure things out too. The way your rosacea presents itself sounds like mine.
I'm currently taking brand Oracea, but I used to take the generic Doxycycline IR-DR. I changed health insurances and the one I have now doesn't cover the generic. Weird, right? Anyway, I also apply Metronidazole Gel 0.75%. It took almost a month to clear my face. Even my acne was gone.
Triggers vary from person to person. If you can identify them, then you can avoid them or take the necessary steps to manage your symptoms. For example, you can't avoid the sun unless you want to be holed up in a windowless room for the rest of your life. So apply some sunscreen! I'll get more into that later.
Establish a skincare regimen for yourself. It doesn't have to be fancy or long and extensive. Just cover the basics. If you can't get yourself to follow it daily, then it's no good. I've read that niacinamide is great for rosacea as it alleviates the symptoms amongst other benefits. The products I use containing niacinamide are Cerave Foaming Facial Cleanser, The Ordinary Niacinamide 10% + Zinc 1% Serum, and Cerave PM Facial Moisturizing Lotion (which I use in the morning too, not just at night).
If you're not using a sunscreen already, what are you waiting for?! Even before I was diagnosed with rosacea, I was already applying sunscreen to my face as the last step of my morning skincare regimen prior to applying makeup. I use Missha All Around Safe Block Essence Sun SPF 45/PA+++ or Innisfree Perfect UV Protection Cream Triple Care SPF 50+/PA+++. Both are Korean brand sunscreens. The Missha one has witch hazel extracts which can be a trigger. It doesn't affect me though. The Innisfree one has niacinamide. Definitely check out /r/AsianBeauty/ and /r/SkincareAddiction/ for more recommendations.
For some people, spicy food is a trigger and should be avoided. I am one of those people. Story time! (You can stop here if you don't want to read my story. :P) I don't really like spicy food, so I usually avoid it anyway. Well, last week, I bought 8 pc. fried chicken from the grocery store. I thought I had dinner covered for the night and leftovers to eat over the course of the week. It turns out the guy gave me spicy fried chicken. I didn't want to go back to the grocery store nor did I want to throw it away, so I sucked it up and ate the fried chicken anyway. The following morning, I woke up to dry, red, irritated skin on my face. I attributed it to the cold weather and decided to bust out some heavier moisturizers. It wasn't until the next time I ate the fried chicken that I remembered spicy food can trigger rosacea flare-ups. I didn't want to waste the fried chicken, so I finished it. My skin was angry with me, but it's starting to subside now.
Honestly thats understandable, but from my 10 years of trial and error i found that its never provides a consistent complexion. Changing variables such as diet, vitamins, sleep, water, non-comedogenic products, washing 1x daily , twice daily, not at all seem to always lead be back to square one.
​
I hate using chemical products as well but, the chemicals provide reliability. This is what I use now. keep in mind that this regimen i got 95% clear consistently, quit because i thought i didnt need it anymore. only have the nightmares bumps come back and have to go through the whole process again. which put me back 4 months just to get clear again. And I did this 4 times, dumb me...

For sure. I've been trying different products for about 6 months now using the SCA routine guidelines. It's a great sub & I've learned a lot about skincare from it. Apologies for my formatting, on mobile. Keep in mind that skincare is not one size fits all. Always patch test, go slow & only change one product at a time so you know which product is causing a particular effect. I also wish I had taken a proper before picture to help measure my results.
My current routine:
Am - rinse with lukewarm water, dry & apply micellar water using a cotton round https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00D10IR1K/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_W6JLAbQNQFP3F) wait 5 minutes for it to absorb then apply moisturizer. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01N35TNYX/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_k.JLAb07QYVMK Apply sunscreen, CeraVe makes a lotion with sunscreen too
PM - Wash with a gentle cleanser. At first I used Cetaphil because it is super gentle but I've now stepped up to CeraVe Foaming Facial Cleanser https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01N1LL62W/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_rcKLAbZWS17QV Next I use the red box Stridex wipes to exfoliate https://www.amazon.com/dp/B00JF2VZG2/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_vfKLAbSP9XSG7 I let that soak into my face for 20-30 minutes. The I use a benzoyl peroxide as a spot treatment to help dry up postules https://www.amazon.com/dp/B001E96LXQ/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_QjKLAbYZXTGX5 Note that as low as 3% is as effective as 10% and doesn't dry out your skin as much. I already had the persa gel when I found out & it doesn't dry my skin too much so I'm using it all up before trying something else. After the benzoyl peroxide has set for a few minutes I moisturize using CeraVe PM Lotion https://www.amazon.com/dp/B010PJX8UE/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_apa_jnKLAbJ21PV7H Both the CeraVe face wash & PM lotion have niancinamide which seems to be working well with my face. Overall I have been satisfied with CeraVe products. I've used some of The Ordinary line & loved them but it seems they are always out of stock so I gave up. Their azaliac acid & glycol toner worked great for me.
I'm far from an expert but feel free to pm me if you have any questions. I know all to well how much acne can really weigh someone down & I'm happy to help. Good luck!
As a tip, the only benzoyl peroxide I can find that I like is the “moisturizer” in the AcneFree sensitive skin kit. I buy the kit for $20 and toss everything but the last step. I think Paula’s Choice makes a decent one but buy the 2.5% one. The clear series version is very harsh to start.
Here is my routine if it helps you. Please keep in mind that using an AHA and a BP might be really harsh on your skin. But after a lot of trial and error, this is my go-to routine.
CeraVe Foaming Facial Cleanser
COSRX AHA 7 Whitehead Power Liquid
AcneFree 3 Step Acne Treatment Kit for Sensitive Skin - just use the 3rd step - Benzoyl Peroxide Lotion
CeraVe Daily Moisturizing Lotion
I use this cleanser in the morning, followed up moisturizer and sometimes sunscreen. Then I repeat at night.
Bare minimum:
Heimish All Clean Balm
Cerave Foaming Cleanser
Thayers Rose Petal Toner
Tony Moly Chok Chok Green Tea Watery Cream
I don't really follow, is the product a face wash? You said your routine is lotion, the new product, an exfoliant, then moisturizer? Are you using it as a wash or leaving it on your face? Sorry, maybe I'm just misreading what you wrote.
Perfume sticks out to me in the ingredient list. Fragrances can be very irritating for a lot of people. You can plug it into CosDNA and see if there are other red flags. The site isn't perfect and everyone's skin is different, but it can be a good place to start.
If that face wash is drying and causing problems for you, I would look for something else. This sub loves CeraVe, either hydrating or foaming. A hydrating or creamy cleanser may be better than foaming since your current one is making you feel dry and your skin is normal. I use Vanicream which is pretty minimal. It lathers up a bit so you feel like you're getting clean but it's not stripping or drying.
Here is the HG cleanser thread with a lot of good options too. You'll find something that works!
You could try this one if you are combination
CeraVe Foaming Facial Cleanser 16 oz for Daily Face Washing, Normal to Oily Skin https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01N1LL62W/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_pLeLAbHB2Y5NB
Haha the rest of me is going through a rough time as well xD Should I switch up my cleanser as well? I was just looking at this CeraVE cleanser
Hey! The one thing I wish I knew when I was a teenager was to stop using the harsh stuff specifically made for acne. The proactive is probably irritating your skin and causing more acne, especially since you said you have dry skin. I whole heartedly believe the more simple the routine, the better. Acne is really just caused by dirty/dehydrated skin. Once the acne is there, it can be treated with certain harsher topicals, but starting with a routine that will gently clean your skin and keep it hydrated will keep the acne popping up in the first place.
tbh I would trash the proactive and that neutrogena moisturizer. I've used both, Proactive ruined my skin and that moisturizer didn't moisturize nearly enough for me. I would get the cerave foaming face wash and the cerave daily moisturizing lotion. I was having skin issues last year and started using just these two products and my skin made huuuuuge improvements. I still use them daily. (I'm only 22 btw) Moisturizing is really the key to clear skin.

Also, I know this is super annoying to hear, but just drink a shit ton of water. It's the easiest thing you can do to help your skin and it truly does make a difference. If you can, stay away from dairy. Dairy is literally just loaded with cow hormones meant for a baby cow to grow. Humans don't need cow hormones, and thats why dairy makes a lot of people break out (including me) but thats a rant for another time.
Hope this helps!!
I spend a lot of time at r/asianbeauty, and that's where I got my routine from. A super basic one for oily/sensitive skin would be in order of steps:
My current routine:
wet face
apply CeraVe Foaming Cleanser(https://www.amazon.com/CeraVe-Foaming-Facial-Cleanser-Washing/dp/B01N1LL62W/ref=sr_1_4_s_it?s=beauty&ie=UTF8&qid=1543554976&sr=1-4&keywords=cerave%2Bfoaming%2Bfacial%2Bcleanser&th=1)
After having applied cleanser to all of face I use this brush for approximately one minute anad then I rinse my face with water(https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B071DZG44Q/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1)
After using the brush/finishing the cleansing process I use one of these pads and I apply it to all of my face
(https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B074GF1PNL/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1#customerReviews)
I let my face air dry for like 30 seconds after using the stridex pad and then I apply this moisturizer lotion (https://www.amazon.com/CeraVe-Moisturizing-Lotion-Hyaluronic-Ceramides/dp/B000YJ2SLG/ref=sr_1_5_s_it?s=beauty&ie=UTF8&qid=1543554993&sr=1-5&keywords=cerave+moisturizing+cream)
I believe that I need to start using some sort of sunscreen, no? If so what should I go for? I don't really know where to look for them just by searching "facial sunscreen" on amazon. (https://www.amazon.com/EltaMD-Clear-Facial-Sunscreen-Broad-Spectrum/dp/B002MSN3QQ/ref=sr_1_4_s_it?s=beauty&ie=UTF8&qid=1543555607&sr=1-4&keywords=elta+sunscreen) This one looks good based on the reviews but 1.7 ounces for $25 is kinda pricey considering that I'll be using the same amount of sunscreen as I would for my lotion. I have normal skin. Any advice on my current routine or input on what sunscreen I should get that's great for the price would help. Thanks.
Hello! I have suddenly developed some deep pimples(?)/bumps on my cheeks that have some pus if forcibly extracted. The bumps do not have a typical "head/center" like common pimples, and they have been on both of my cheeks for ~2-3 weeks. They also tend to form "clusters/groups" on both cheeks. What should I do to treat/prevent this issue?
My skin is combinational, with my T-zone being oily and my cheeks being usually a little on the dry side. My current routine is using the following:
> Cleanser 1: KOSE SOFTYMO Speedy Cleansing Oil
> Cleanser 2: CeraVe Foaming Facial Cleanser
> Exfoliator: Stri-dex Pads Maximum Strength only for nighttime
> Moisturizer: Elizavecca Aqua Hyaluronic Acid Water Drop Cream
Due to using moisturizer, my cheeks are not as dry as before and I have been using this routine for ~1 year without any major issues. I do not recall adding or removing anything new in the recent past. I currently live in the USA.
Okay so new here i started using a cleanser over a week ago and more recently a moisturizer too.
CeraVe Foaming Facial Cleanser 16... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01N1LL62W?ref=yo_pop_ma_swf
Benton Snail Bee High Content... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B071JRBBHJ?ref=yo_pop_ma_swf
Those r them. I use the cleanser in the morning after a shower or if i miss my shower still in the mornin. I think my skin has been less oily which is nice but i started the moisturizer and i had another nodule show up or hard pimple whatever.
Idk if its connected honestly but im getting tired of these i still have one near my nose from before u started even the cleanser because it was starting to annoy me.
Anyway now i guess i have 2 of those total. I planned on incorporating other stuff into the routine slowly to fix some red dot ive had on my nose since highschool and also im told i should incorporate sunscreen too.
I have products in mind from yalls sidebar and best product threads but figured id ask if im doin anything wrong so far
Tdlr: morning and night i use the cleanser and moisturizer still got another “ nodule” or whatever its called tho
I'm not entering my own contest but here's my routine:
Then I prime and apply makeup as normal.
At the end of the day I:
Repeat 2-5 and go to bed.
Sometimes I do sheet masks and Indian Clay masks with ACV.
I wanna start going to the sauna at my gym once a week too for happy skin.
