For your skin I owuld recommend:

1. Cleanse- KISS Cleanser with a foaming bottle
2. Tone- Pore Refining Toner
3. Moisturize- Green Tea & Aloe Serum and Hemp Moisutrizer

This is athe basic routine for acne prone skin. If you are wanting to address other issues, I can recommend other things. You may need a more intense moisturizer for winter.....then I would recommend Oatmeal Serum and Olive Oil Lotion. I could also make recommendations based on your age.

I have acne prone skin and LOVE the Oatmeal Serum, it is also very moisturizing. The Kiss Cleanser is great. If you find it drying, just dilute it more.

If you wanted a serum to start in iwth anti aging, you could try the Vitamin C Peptide. It probably is not really necessary until you get closer to 30.

I have skin a bit like you described, and I love the super serum and the apricot oil cleanser. They are awesome :) Only caveat is that some people find the super serum irritating, so take care the first time you try it (it is fine on my skin).
