Hi guys, would anyone have any suggestions for helping me get smoother skin and less redness? 

I don’t think this picture shows quite how bad it is in real life, but my skin is extremely textured and red around my cheeks and nose. I also have seborrheic dermatitis around my nose, but this is mostly managed with an anti-fungal cream. 

I’ve tried so many actives in the past, but for a good year or two now I literally just just Purifide cleanser in the morning, just wash my face with water at night and use a 0.05% retinaldehyde by Geek and Gorgeous every other night. And also the anti-fungal cream daily around my nose. 

I don’t even use moisturiser and think this is probably where I’m going wrong, but I feel like my face gets oily quite easily and I hate the feeling of a greasy face. Is my skin barrier damaged do you think? 

I seem to have very sensitive skin. Every time I shave my face my entire face and neck goes bright red and raw, the sun also makes me pretty red, but I often find once I get a bit of a tan my skin seems to look so much better, no sure what that’s about. 

Any recommendations would be great, I’m not too keen on loads of actives so prefer to keep things minimal. Also open to supplements but I take a lot of those anyway (Vitamin C, Collagen, Vitamin D, Zinc, Iron etc). Thank you!
