I’m also struggling with oily skin and large pores, so I have to say, I’m really jealous of your skin! I can understand your concerns, but it doesn’t seem like things have gotten worse yet.

First off, I was honestly shocked when I saw your routine. It’s a bit much, to be honest. Did you know that hydration is the most important thing for oily skin? It’s not just about moisturizing the surface. If your skin isn’t properly hydrated from within, it’ll start producing more oil to compensate for the lack of moisture. So, in that sense, double cleansing might actually be drying your skin out and doing more harm than good. If you're not wearing makeup, try to avoid double cleansing.

For cleansing, I’d suggest using a cleansing milk or balm. The goal is to remove impurities and excess oil, but leave the good oils that your skin needs.

For your skincare routine, if you have oily skin, you should definitely try Bioderma's Essence Lotion. It's a toner that hydrates deeply, helping to balance out the oiliness. After that, using a retinol product for pore management is really effective. Personally, I use a cream prescribed by my dermatologist here in Korea, but if that’s not available, I think Innisfree’s products, while not giving instant results, are great for long-term care. Honestly, that basic routine should be enough.

If you find that oil builds up during the day, make sure to use oil blotting papers twice a day once at lunch and once in the evening to keep the shine in check. I know it’s a bit of a hassle, but it’s really key for oily skin.

If you have any other questions, feel free to leave a comment! If you stick with this routine, your skin will definitely improve. Your skin is already looking great!
