In this video I’m sharing my current AM skincare routine for oily, acne-prone skin using mostly fungal-acne safe products that I’ve been using for a long time. I also give you a bunch of options in every step—cleansers, toners, essence, serums/actives, moisturizers, and sunscreens—so you can build a routine that fits your skin. I talk about why I apply products on damp skin (it helps everything penetrate better), and I’m super careful to be gentle—especially when using cotton pads. I start with two fungal acne safe cleansers (Purito Defence Barrier pH Cleanser and Youth To The People Superfood Cleanser) that clean really well without stripping. For toner, I explain why I sometimes use Benton Aloe BHA Skin Toner even though it’s not 100% FA safe—my fungal acne is almost gone and it never triggered me—but I also share a fully FA-safe toner option (Some By Mi Miracle Toner). My favorite hydration step is I’m From Mugwort Essence (I’m on my third bottle) because it’s soothing and helps with inflammation. For actives, I rotate between Mad Hippie Vitamin C (gentle), iUNIK Tea Tree Relief Serum (calming), The Ordinary Niacinamide (I prefer it at night), and Paula’s Choice 10% Azelaic Acid Booster—this is the one I strongly believe helped clear my fungal acne and made my texture “so freaking smooth.” I finish with lightweight gel moisturizers and then sunscreen (Nivea Super Water Gel or EltaMD UV Clear), because sunscreen is non-negotiable and I reapply at least once a day.
