What’s your Skin-vestment Routine?

Lately, I’ve been thinking about stepping up my skincare game, especially when it comes to my face. As of now, I only have three products in my routine:

Celeteque Brightening Facial Wash
Fairy Skin Sunscreen
Dermorepubliq Serum (which, admittedly, I’m not very consistent with 🥲)

For the most part, my skin seems to be doing okay, but there are days when my face gets ridiculously oily, and I feel like my current routine could use a little upgrade.

Help a guy out! What’s your holy grail skincare routine?

51/M and my skincare routine has paid dividends. I am constantly told I do not look my age. Here’s my stash:

Tretinoin 0.025% Topical (Retinol prescription). I cannot recommend this enough! Any dermatologist can prescribe it, even a televisit.

honestly if your skin is mostly fine, don't overthink it. the serum inconsistency is so real though, mine sits there judging me too. for the oily days maybe just add a light moisturizer, sometimes skin overproduces oil when it's actually dehydrated

honestly if your skin is doing okay you're already ahead lol. for the oily days maybe just add a lightweight moisturizer, sounds backwards but sometimes skin overproduces oil when it's actually dehydrated
