[Routine Help] Using Azelaic Acid for Closed Comedones

Beauty Tips For Body Care
Hi Everyone,I’ve had severe closed comedones on my face (forehead, cheeks, and jawline) for a few months, so the doctor recently prescribed me with Finacea which is 15% azelaic acid. I also have red acne on my cheeksI started using it two weeks ago and I use it everyday during the morning and evening. I’m not the most knowledgeable about skincare, so was wondering if I could get advice about my routine and the order of using products.AM:Cleanse with Cetaphil Gentle Skin CleanserWait 5 minutes and apply Finacea (15% Azelaic Acid)Wait 5 minutes and apply Neutrogena Hydro Boost Gel Face Cream with Hyaluronic Acid for Extra Dry SkinWait 2 minutes and apply SPFPM:Cleanse with Cetaphil Gentle Skin CleanserWait 5 minutes and apply COSRX AHA 7 Whitehead Power Liquid OR Paula's Choice BHA (I alternate between these 2 everyday)Wait 20 minutes minutes and apply Finacea (15% Azelaic Acid)Masks:Sulfur De la Cruz mask twice a week for 10 minutesI’m confused about the order and wait time between using the above products. Should I use the AHA/BHA before or after the Finacea? And when should I use the moisturizer?Some other questions I have:I've been reading about Hyaluronic Acid and was wondering if I need to use a different moisturizer on top of the Nuetrogena Hydroboost or will this alone be enough?Is there room to incorporate TO Niacinamide in my current routine? If so, in where in my routine do I add this and how often do I use it?Thank you in advance!
