[Routine Help] Oily skin routine advice

Routine Help

Hey!

I've been struggling with my skin for a few years, and I thought I'd post on here for some advice.

I have combo skin/an oily tzone. It gets super oily literally an hour after washing and so greasy by the end of the day, which is starting to get really annoying and gross. I find myself rubbing my face a lot to try and wipe the oiliness off, which I don't really want to do anymore. I get breakouts now and then, but it's mostly controlled. Right now, I don't really have a super in depth skincare routine. I've tried doing some research here and there on what works but there are so many different opinions on the internet, so it's a bit overwhelming. At the moment:

Mornings:

- Cetaphil Daily Face Wash

- Aveeno Daily Moisturizing Body Lotion (yes I know this is body lotion, any recommendations of good moisturizers would be greatly appreciated!)

Nights:

- Cetaphil Daily Face Wash

- Panoxyl 10%

- Tretinoin 0.1%

- Aveeno Daily Moisturizing Body Lotion

I'd love any recommendations on products to use, preferably affordable ones less than $20 each. I'd like to keep my routine simple too. Thanks!
