I wanted to post my routine as it's been really hard to find something that works for me due to all my issues, so if anyone else has similar issues and is also looking for CF and vegan products here is what I've found.

I have to avoid fragrant essential oils ie. citrus, peppermint, lavender, most fragranced products and anything above a 2 for comedogenicity on cosdna. My routine has to be cruelty free (I base my choices from Logical Harmony's Cruelty Free List ), vegan, gentle and budget-friendly. I'm a skincare nerd and the ingredients need to make sense for the product and it's pH needs to be around 4.5-5.5 (although I can't verify that all of these products are) unless it's an active that needs to be at a different pH. It also needs to feel nice and preferably not be packaged in a jar coz I find it icky.

The majority of the products are from iherb with the remainder being from Priceline.

The cleanser is fragranced but it doesn't irritate me because I wash it off.

I am patch-testing the DeVita C Serum currently. It contains citrus oils so I'm worried about it irritating me and breaking me out. The Derma E Vitamin A Treatment Oil I haven't incorporated into my routine yet. The Derma E Oil contains retinyl palmitate which is a pre-cursor to retinol so I'm hoping it is gentler than a retinol because I don't think my skin could take a retinol. Unfortunately Derma E won't reveal the percentage of the product to me which is super annoying.

I hope this is interesting to someone or helps them out!
