Hello SCA!

Skin Type: Balanced, combination. I get seasonal dryness, no oiliness otherwise. No acne. Occasional pimple once every 8 months.

Current Routine: Just wash my face in the shower with whatever I can find. Usually a daily scrub off the shelf.

Location: Upstate New York

I don't have a problematic skin. No pimples or acne since I was a teenager, but they have left me with very little ice-pick scarring near my eyes. It's hardly noticeable.

I'm just looking for a more even toned, brighter skin. Here's what I have in my cart so far after reading the SCA Routine from wiki. Please approve or help make ammendments. I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you.




Nip + Fab Glycolic Fix Scrub, 2.5 Ounce (Plan on using it once or twice a week)

I'm mildly wary of chemical exfoliation and cleansing, only because I've never had any problems and I don't want any new problems from taking off too much skin. What do you guys think?

As a beginner I have some dumb questions. So I started a routine and I read on here that it’s better to use cold water. How long should I wash my face with cold water before using the cleanser? I'm using these pads and I don't know if I should wash my face after using them?

I have this exfoliant. thoughts?

Also, are there any other stuff I should know? I used the ScA routine and mainly those products to create my routine.
