Products with retinol + niacinamide? [Routine help]

Beauty Tips For Body Care
Looking for product recommendations!I have combo skin with constantly big clored pores everywhere. I used to use salicylic acid both AM & PM but since I've started using retinol at night, I swapped out salicylic acid for niacinimide in the PM (since salicylic acid can worsen retinol irritation while niacinimide can reduce it). Currently I use TO Niacinimide + Zinc followed by TO 2% Retinoid in Squalane as a moisturizer.I'm looking to simplify my routine (I get lazy when I have to layer too many products) so looking for products with both niacinmide and retinol. Almost every one I've found has acids as well, and you shouldn't really have acids and retinol/niacinimide in the same product since they function at different pH ranges (niacinimide is ~5.0-7.0, retinol is ~5.5-6.0, acids <4)Here are the ones I've found so far:-100% Pure Potent PM Serum: with 10% niacinmide + 1% retinol + CoQ10 + no acids this looks like the best candidate, but sadly out of my budget. edit: also just realized it has bergamot and sweet orange essential oil which I react really poorly too-La Roche Posay Face Serum: a good candidate. looks like the retinol is 0.3%, couldnt find the % niacinimide-Eva Skin Clearing Serum: has SA & HA-QXR labs Niacinimide + Retinol serum: has HA-Dr. Sam's Flawless Nightly Serum: has azelaic acidAny suggestions?
