Hello! 26F, after neglecting my skin for my entire life I’m trying to repair it and be consistent with skincare. Had some acne as a teen so I’ve got some scarring from that but my main concern is my t-zone/cheek redness that I’ve had for as long as I remember (probably since the time I started getting acne in my younger years). 

My current routine is: 
AM
Rinse face with cool water 
Anua heartleaf soothing sheet mask (2x a week) 
Anua heartleaf soothing toner (I’m switching to their hydrating rice toner soon for more hydration) 
Anua azeliac acid (3x a week) 
Anua hyaluronic acid (4x a week) 
ELF holy hydration eye cream 
Anua ceramide & panthenol barrier cream 
Anua SPF 50 

PM
Double cleanse with cool water and Anua heartleaf cleansing oil + La Roche Posey hydrating cleanser (switching to Dokdo 1025 cleanser soon since I’m pretty sure my La Roche is expired) 
Anua heartleaf soothing toner (switching to rice toner soon) 
Azeliac acid (x2 a week)
Hyaluronic acid (x2 a week) 
Seoul 1988 Retinal eye cream (x3 times a week) 
ELF holy hydration eye cream (x4 times a week) 
Anua ceramide & panthenol barrier cream (going to be trying the Dr Althea 147 cream soon at night) 
Slugging with Vaseline x3 a week 


As I’m sure you can tell, I was interested in trying Korean skincare and I know people have very conflicting opinions on Anua/Medicube. But as someone with an extremely limited budget right now, getting a set of things to try from one brand felt like the most accessible way for me to get products as most of mine were expired. I also want to clarify, I’m not slugging with acids underneath and I’m only doing one type of acid a day to try not to overwhelm my skin. 

Thank you so much for any help or insight you might have, please take it easy on me bc I’m a beginner and I’m doing my best 😅
