Help! I have so many ingredient issues. Can I make my own chemical exfoliant toner/cream? [Routine Help]

Beauty Tips For Body Care
Current routine:Cleanser: Su:m37 Miracle Rose Cleansing StickSerum: Cosmedica Pure Hyaluronic Acid SerumMoisturizer: Nivea cremeExfoliant: ASDM Beverly Hills glycolic acid 30% (once a week)Sunscreen: various high-protection Asian sunscreens depending on makeup/no makeup, etc.I can't use:chamomile or anything related to itfatty alcoholswitch hazel (WITCH HAZEL!!! it makes me red and splotchy! oh my god!)cucumber and friendsnot sure about willow bark on my skin yet, but I'm not allergic to aspirinit seems like I find a new plant extract every day that my skin doesn't agree with.My problem:The 30% glycolic acid 1xweek works well for me and I love glycolic acid. I don't like the hassle of putting it on every week and trying not to burn my face off (I haven't yet burned my face off). I think I would prefer to put on a lower strength AHA throughout the week and maintain exfoliation that way, maybe in a cream or a toner. BUT! Every single product like that I've tried has irritated my skin because it contains the above ingredients. It seems like nobody makes products without putting beneficial plants in them (that I am allergic to, thanks body).My questions:Can I combine my 30% glycolic acid with my Nivea cream (or something) to make a good low strength exfoliating moisturizer or toner that will maintain my skin through the week and not risk burning? Are there instructions/proportions/guidelines somewhere for this kind of thing? Or maybe you know of a product that won't murder my skin? I'm so tired of spending money and trying things and finding a new plant I can't use. I just want something pure and low-strength to get the job done.Thanks for reading!
