I am 52 with of course, aging skin, with poor elasticity- but have a very oily and congested  nose and forehead.I was using a mix of skinceuticals and janmarini until while ago.I just don't know where to start but I want to protect/repair and clean my skin.I also have some pigmented patches !! but I think the worse area is my nose and the open pores ...HELP!

I would start with alpha/beta exfoliator once a week for four weeks, plus let's make collagen serum every day or twice a day. That will kick your skin into gear and will start closing your pores and adding elasticity.

After a couple of months your needs may change and we can then fine tune.

The alpha beta exfoliator contains salicylic acid.Beta hydroxy acid is the very incorrect name the skin care industry uses for salicylic acid.
