i have oily combo skin. i'm mainly looking to target the enlarged pores and blemishes around my face and some blackheads (or sebaceous filaments? i'm really not sure) on my nose. would also love to even out my skin texture and eliminate the redness around my nose but that's not a priority at the moment.

which actives should i be trying? i've been using the ordinary salicylic acid 2% solution for the past few months with little to no improvements. i also recently added the 10% niacinamide + 1% zinc oil control serum to my routine (making sure not to use them both at the same time and spacing it out until my skin is 100% comfortable) and there haven't been any noticeable improvements on that end either.

title. my hair and scalp desperately need some hydration but all the rinse out AND leave-in conditioners i've used so far were either (1) thick and weighed my fine hair down or (2) didn't penetrate my hair quite well and left it feeling even more dry, crunchy, and brittle. my hair is also very sensitive to protein.

any recs are welcome!!! and thank you in advance.

seeing a lot of conflicting opinions about this because of the way cb stacks decay the more turns you get. what spd breakpoint should i be aiming for to minmax her build?
