Asking For Self, Male 20, Karachi

For a 20 year old,Male, oily and acne prone skin, can any dermatologist here tell me the steps of good skin care routine please? I know I shall use exfoliator once a week and facewash everyday. But what follows up after a facewash?

Also what is the difference b/w moisturizer, cream and a lotion? which one should I use on my face?

Thanks for reading:)

I actually don't need to know about the medicines as I have got the prescription already. I am just asking about a good skincare routine to follow through

oil free moisturiser..you can search for it labelling them as "non comedogenic"

If your face skin is oily and acne prone, you must frequently wash your face with mild soaps or mild face washes several times a day or whenever you feel your face has become oiler. If your face is oily why do you want to apply moisturizer? Who told you to use exfoliator once a week? You may use that if you have black/white heads. There is very small differences been moisturizer, lotions and creams. It is ratio of water and oil that makes them different.
