[Acne] Every time I find a routine that works, my skin changes and starts breaking out again. Anyone experience the same and can help?

Beauty Tips For Body Care
Hi all, I’ve had a long journey with skincare and acne and I feel so hopeless now. Two years ago in my last year of college my skin started getting huge cystic acne all over my cheeks. I would get at least 5 huge pimples on my face and as soon as one would clear another one would pop up. I was at such a low point I finally started using tretinoin and clindamycin and it cleared my face up completely! Even during my period I would get maybe one tiny pimple max.Fast forward to finishing my senior year and moving back home, my skin started getting all the side effects one normally sees with tret usage. All the sudden my skin started peeling like crazy every day, like when you would get a sunburn. After months of trying ceramides, and aggravating my skin barrier with exfoliation, I finally found a routine that got rid of the flakes while not over exfoliating my skin.A few months go by again, not changing any of the products I used and the acne came back. This time I suspect it’s hormonal because every time my period is coming by skin starts to develop tons of tiny closed comedones on each cheek. I get so many tiny bumps on each cheek it looks like I have a rash from the redness. And then when my period finishes the bumps completely disappear and my face is back to normal.I just feel kind of hopeless right now because it seems like whenever I find a routine that works, and it seems like my skin is starting to improve, it changes and my skin starts reacting to something else. I’m wondering if anyone has an idea of what I can do, or if anyone else experiences the same thing.PS: sorry if the formatting, etc comes out weird, I’m using mobile to typeAM: Goodall waterest lasting oil Clindamycin Mebika moisture lotion and squalane Cerave in tub Nivea sun protect Water gel spf 50PM: Goodall waterest lasting oil Clindamycin Mebika moisture lotion and squalane Cerave in tub (Wait at least 30 min) Tretinoin .05% Wait time Cerave healing ointment before bedExfoliate maybe once a week with either a peeling gel or ole henriksen sugar mask
