Looking to improve my routine

My skincare routine is pretty solid; I don't have breakouts anymore and my skin feels hydrated. Just looking for any ways I could possibly improve it for the long-term of keeping my skin in good condition as I age.

I'd recommend to change your Vitamin C serum to a product with the most potent form of it (Ascorbic Acid), and go for a pretty high percentage (15-20%). The TruSkin serum you are using has a Vitamin C derivative in it, it is less effective for anti-aging.

Here are a few products with Ascorbic Acid:

You could also consider adding a product with retinoid to your routine - it is the most well researched effective anti-aging ingredient (after sunscreens). For example, a serum like this: (I'd use it in the PM, and move the Vitamin C serum to AM):
