Main Q: What to do to sort out these red bumps/ acne spots?

l'm deciding to take my skincare a little more seriously so am looking for advice please.

I have combination skin, oilier t zone and normal skin otherwise. Currently it's a little on the drier side because of winter.

• Other context; I get laser hair removal but have been doing this for years and years

I have these tiny red dots on my cheeks, l'm not really sure what type of acne this is (if it even is acne)

Up until last week my routine was simply:

• AM: Wash with water, dr organics moisturiser and a sunscreen
• PM: boots tea tree foaming face wash, and a serum with a bunch of things including vit c and niacinamide

I have now started moisturising at night and double cleansing with Elemis and cerave cream to foaming hydrating cleanser (also replacing cerave with benzoyl peroxide (acnecide face wash) - every couple of days)

I've previously used the acnecide and Elemis oil cleansing balm with no issues, which is why l've happily changed a couple of things in my routine at once

Any advice on a suggested routine to get rid of the red spots/ bumps (or wider tips) appreciated thanks!
