Too much? Not enough?

Hi, so my skin type is oily and i tend to be on the sensitive acne prone side as well. I also found out recently that my skin is dehydrated, so that was really exciting. My skin has been looking really dull and my skin looks congested skin with random breakouts. If anyone could give me recommendations for my skin conditions that would be great!

I would skip your cleanser in the morning, and go for even a gentler one on the evening - something like this one: https://whatsinmyjar.com/product/the-inkey-list-oat-cleansing-balm.

Possibly swapping your current sunscreen to a mineral-based one at least for the time being can also reduce the sensitivity: https://whatsinmyjar.com/search/sunscreens/mineral-sunscreens?category_texture=Lotion&sortBy=Irritancy&sortBy=Promises%20fulfilled

Hope this helps!

You could also add an azelaic acid product to help reduce breakouts without inducing irritation: https://whatsinmyjar.com/product/naturium-azelaic-acid-emulsion-10.
