Post your current AM/PM routine (2026 edition)

It's been a while since we had one of these. Post your routine! Skin type, AM and PM, and the one product you'd save in a fire.

Me: combo, 30s.
AM: water rinse, vitamin C, moisturizer, sunscreen.
PM: oil cleanser, gel cleanser, tret 3x a week, moisturizer.
Fire: my sunscreen. Obviously.

Dry, 40s, rosacea.
AM: splash of water, azelaic acid, a thick moisturizer, mineral sunscreen.
PM: cream cleanser, moisturizer, Vaseline on the dry spots.
Fire: the azelaic. Took me years to find what works.

oily, 20s, lazy. AM: sunscreen. PM: cleanser, moisturizer. fire: whatever's closest to the door

honestly the lazy routine is better than half the 12-step ones

Normal-ish, 50s, newly menopausal, so my skin is having an identity crisis.
AM: gentle cleanser, peptide serum, moisturizer, sunscreen.
PM: cleanser, retinal, the richest cream I can find.
Fire: the retinal. I'm too old to start over.

the menopause skin identity crisis is something I almost never see talked about, I'd love a thread on it if you're up for it

@sagegamer maybe I'll start one! I'm sure I'm not the only one

combo, 30s. AM: cleanser, niacinamide, moisturizer, sunscreen. PM: same but tret instead of niacinamide, plus a pimple patch on whatever's on my chin that week. fire: the pimple patches, I can't go back to picking
