I'm trying to perfect my skincare routine and I want to add a serum to help my complexion. I have a few acne spots, but my main concern is just overall uneven skintone and redness on my cheeks/nose. What type of product should I be looking for? I was contemplating a Vit C serum or the Cosmedix Lightning serum-but are these good for redness? I only hear discussion of them on spots, which I don't have.

Any suggestions?

Here are products that helped me:

Years ago, I used Sonya Dakar line. I used: acne physical scrub, Omega 3 oil, vitamin C

I've also used years later, the following:
Juice Beauty green apple peel/mask
professional micro
MUAC lactic acid peel

Is there any chance you might have the early stages of rosacea, have you discussed this with a dermatologist or your family doctor?

What products are you using now? Maybe they're irritating your skin? Do you exfoliate a lot (more than once a week)?

If you do decide to use a vit C serum, use it once every three days as vit C remains in the skin for up to 72 hours.
