Hello!!
I (21F) am pretty new to the world of skincare. I generally have oily/combination skin, I don’t really wear makeup, but I do have PCOS which contributes to a lot of acne on my jawline (as well as excess hair growth, so I shave my jaw line/chin daily.) I want something that helps make my face feel fresher and less oily, and also helps with my acne.

For a while, I literally only used CeraVe face cleaner in the shower. About six months ago I started using The Ordinary Salicylic Acid 2% which really seemed to help with my acne. About a week ago I bought some products from Skin1004 (mostly because I love Hudson Williams LMAO but I did try to pick ones that I thought would go with my skin), specifically this 4-step pore routine which I was thinking of doing every night before bed. I was wondering if anybody could provide some tips on the following questions:

1. ⁠Should I be doing this 4-step pore routine every day or is that more of an every so often thing?
2. ⁠How should I be combining it with the Ordinary Salicylic Acid? I.e. in what order should I put them in, should I do them together or should it be a separate thing, etc.? Should I use that every day?
3. ⁠Should I still be using the cerave cleanser in the shower if the 4-step pore routine also has a cleanser?
4. Is it bad to leave something like the gel cream at the end of the routine on your face overnight, or should I wash it off before i go to bed?

Thanks so much!! ❤️
