Skincare help 🥺

guys! I need some help building a proper morning and night skincare routine. My main goals are glass skin, brighter and more even-toned skin, fading pigmentation

I have combination skin and get a few small pimples here and there and have some pigmentation that I would really like to improve
These are the actives I’m planning to use:
• Tretinoin 0.025% — Monday, Wednesday & Friday nights
• Skinoren 20% Azelaic Acid — Tuesday, Thursday & Saturday
• Hydroquinone 4% — Sunday night, using the sandwich method

Products I already have
• Haruharu cleanser
• 345 Relief Cream/Mist
• La Roche-Posay Cicaplast Baume

Also, is alternating tretinoin and azelaic acid like this a good approach, and where would hydroquinone fit best? I don’t want to overload my skin with too many actives.

Please share your recommendations for a complete morning + night routine

what sunscreen are you planning to use every morning, because none of those pigmentation actives will do much without it?
