My morning routine is wake up > shower (warm wet water on face, shave with grain, cold water on face, shave across grain, cold water on face) > aftershave [5 minutes wait time] > moisturiser with SPF 15
Evening: wash face with lukewarm water [10m wait time] > apply exfoliator (BHA & salicylic acid). I replace my pillow case every night.
I still have blackheads on my nose, and what appear to be razor bumps? The razor bumps have lessened since i started using the aftershave, and the cold water rinses help too, but i still get them.
For real using a cleanser twice a day has been making a huge difference.
Is cleanser the same as exfoliator?

Cleansers are for getting dirt and stuff off, exfoliators are for removing dead skin. I think some products do both though.
