Hello and welcome to my current skincare routine! These are the different products I've been varying and each day/night I use any combination of them to achieve the skin I want. My skin type is a combination of oily, so from all that I've tested, it's what works best for me and what I would recommend to someone of a similar skin type.
FACE WIPES
I've been trying to expand my horizons from affordable, but not the staple Neutrogena in the face wipe realm. These are what I've found as a result. They all leave your face feeling clean, without the unnecessary oily residue.
Garnier SkinActive Micellar Original Cleansing Wipes
Garnier SkinActive Clean + Purifying Oil-Free Cleansing Wipes
Rose Water Cleansing Wipes
FACE WASH
Depending on how much makeup I have on, I will use one of these to cleanse my face. If I am wearing little to no makeup, I'll use the Micellar Water to take off any excess gunk. If I have on makeup or feel the need to clean my face more than usual, I'll use the Cleansing Complex, which is great for oily/acne prone skin.

TONER
This stuff is my saving grace. The toner/astringent is what makes my skin feel really clean and balances any oils that could be left on my face.
Face & Body Witch Hazel Astringent
Sea Breeze Sensitive Skin Astringent
SERUM
Despite what you may think, using a serum, even when having oily skin will not make you very oily. In fact, overproduction of natural oil could be a result of dehydration. These both make my skin feel very nourished and glowy and last all day.

MOISTURIZER
If you don't use anything else on your face, at least moisturize- multiple times a day. Depending on how my skin acts, I'll use one of these three. The aloe is very hydrating, as it is a gel consistency, and gives my skin a satin finish. The Embryolisse is thick and luxurious, yet light and feminine. The Glam Glow is nice for when I want to have a no makeup day, but not look like I haven't slept in 48 hours. It smells so good and gives me an obvious glow, seen by the name and the color.
Embryolisse Lait-Crème Concentré
Glam Glow GLOWSTARTER Mega Illuminating Moisturizer
EYE CREAM
 
I gravitate between these two and still can't seem to choose a favorite. They both have a salmon color, to allude from the fact that you have dark black holes behind them and last for hours.
Origins GinZing Refreshing Eye Cream
First Aid Beauty Eye Duty Triple Remedy: Brighten, Depuff and Smooth
LIP MOISTURIZER
Not that this is something that actually exists, but it's the term I'm going to use. My lips aren't naturally dry or cracked, but I still hate going to bed with that lack of moisture feeling. After I'm done with the rest of my skin, I'll put one of these bad boys on and wake up with soft, moisturized lips.
The reason I always keep a variety of skin care to choose from is because it's important not to get stuck in too much of a routine with your products. Your skin may have different needs depending on how it acts day to day and if it gets used to certain products, it will become just as bored as you. Switching up your routine and trying new staples is part of the fun, which you will notice as your collection starts to grow. Hopefully, these babies work as well for you as they have me.
