[mieowww]

Hi, this is the first community group i have joined and I just wanted to know if anyone can help me with a routine for oily and acne prone skin with a lot of texture, I need recommendations on basically, primer, serums, moisturizers, toners, and more. I don’t have a lot of money to spend and I just wanted to start my routine all over since what I am doing right now hasn’t been working that much anymore

Hi @mieowww - in addition to the recommendations of @quspork there are acne kits in two of the more economical lines on the Sephora site. You could take a look at The INKEY List Back to Basics: Goodbye Acne Skincare Set and The Ordinary The Acne Set as well. They're more affordable, and I use products from The Ordinary myself, though I haven't yet tried The INKEY LIst.

Hope this helps!
