Hello, I’m a guy and I’ve been recently getting into taking care of my skin and I’d like to know what the ladies here are using. I’m using Cerve wash and moisturizer. I have oily and pimple prone skin.

Anything I should avoid and/or put in my routine.

I use the body shop tea tree line it's really good for oily skin and whenever I have a rare breakout I use tea tree oil which gets the job done. However, the best way to achieve clear skin is to have a good diet and drink lots of water.

seriously though, your routine is good
i'd recommend a hydrating toner to help your "oiliness" (it wont make it worse, don't worry)
do you have any skin problems (acne, hyperpigmentation, etc.)?

A product you apply after washing your face that balances out the ph level of your skin and keeps it hydrated. An example would be a toner with hydraulic acid.

Niacinamide is good for fixing uneven skin tone and because it helps in reducing oil production, it can help with acne too.
For hyperpigmentation and scars, direct acids are good. I recommend glycolic acid (espcially from The Ordinary brand). I use it for my skin, and I love it. I recently started using the AHA 30% + BHA 2% peeling solution from The Ordinary and it's good too.

Cleansing: Be gentle, both in the products you use and in your technique. You’re cleaning your face, not your car engine. Morning cleansing is optional. Sort of. If you’re using the big guns like tretinoin or other actives on an evening, I wouldn’t recommend skipping this step. If your...
