Hello and welcome to the Alter-Daily Help Thread! The purpose of the ADHT is to ask simple questions, troubleshoot routines, get quick recommendations, prevent the sub from being too cluttered, and to guide new users.
ADHT Rules: If questions or comments break the rules or are inappropriate, the report button is the fastest way for the mod team to see it and address the problems.
Build Me A Routine, /r/AsianBeauty! Please refrain from just stating a skin concern then expecting people to build a routine from scratch. It is important to do due diligence in understanding your skin type and needs. Learn more here in The New User Guide. You can also search the subreddit here.
Non-AB questions or comments. Having non-AB products in your routine is totally fine! Getting specific advice/recommendations is not allowed, though welcomed in our Daily Anything Goes thread. See our rules on non-AB here
Rude comments and snark. Fairly self explanatory but for more detail, check out our Posting Guidelines
When directing someone to the sidebar provide specific links. i.e. for someone asking about Allergies or Beginner Guides, link them to the specific subsections within AB University, rather than saying it’s in the sidebar.
Finally, a reminder that no one is obligated to answer your questions. If you have repeatedly asked the same question without a response, it may be best to review and see if it can be reworded or if the information is already in the thread or readily available in the sidebar materials.
Remember that all skincare is individual and Your Mileage May Vary with recommendations. We are enthusiasts, not doctors, and we cannot provide you with medical advice. Speak to a medical professional if your skin concerns are affecting your well-being.

Can I just wipe my skin in the morning then go ahead with my morning skincare routine as my skin barrier is compromised? I have Sensitive and combo skin.
Morning Skincare:
-COSRX Hydra power essence
-Illiyoon Ceramide Ato Lotion
-Goodal Calming Mineral Filter Sun Cream
I feel like I have tried basically everything for my pores, and nothing helps. I cannot figure out where I’m going wrong, because even using volcanic clay masks do not help shrink pores.
Skin Type: combination
Country/Climate: USA, South Texas (semi-arid)
Top Skin Concern: Clogged Pores
Current Routine/Products I am using:
AM:
CosRX Cica Clear Cleasing Oil*Round Lab Dokdo 1025 cleanser*CosRX Advanced 96 Snail Mucin*Melano CC Vitamin C toner*Numbuzin no.3 Super Glowing Essence Toner*Axis-Y Spot the Difference Serum*HaruHaruWonder Black Rice Moistire AiryFit Sunscreen
PM:
CosRX Cica Clear Cleasing Oil*Round Lab Dokdo 1025 cleanser*CosRX Advanced 96 Snail Mucin*Forbidden Toner*Beauty Of Joseon Ginseng Essence*HaruHaruWonder Black Rice Hyaluronic Toner*
I have always had an issue with my pores, so I’m not really sure what to do that will help but again, I feel like I’ve tried everything. If anyone has any product recommendations please let me know!
