i'm new to skincare and i dont know where to start

so i’m a teen and i’m really new to skincare. i want to start taking care of my skin properly, but the more i research, the more confused i get.

i don’t think my skin is overly oily, and i honestly don’t know if it’s sensitive because i’ve only ever used some moisturiser from my mum. i break out sometimes (maybe every couple of weeks), but i don’t have severe acne or any major skin issues.

people say that you don’t need 10+ skincare products and that a simple routine (like 2–3 products) is best, especially if you don’t have big problems, which does make sense. but then i get stuck on which products those should be, because everything seems to depend on skin type, and i’m not even sure what mine is. and then theres toners, cleansers, moisturisers, and all of this stuff and like what should i use? and what's the order? everyone says something different.

what do i do in the morning vs at night? which products should i do only a couple times a week?
what is double cleansing? when should i do it? should i even do it? at what part of the routine? what even is the routine??

my dream is to have the "glass skin" like i see online. i'm just really lost. everyone online seems to say something different, and a lot of advice feels either excessive or sponsored or aimed at people with serious skin concerns.

i want that perfect skin but i don't want to damage my skin or waste money in the process.

sorry for the entire essay, any advice would be really appreciated because i feel extremely lost 😭
