a retinoid in your pm routine. Naturium Retinaldehyde Serum comes in 2 strengths so start with the lower strength

Naturium Retinaldehyde Serum is a good one to start with and eventually you can switch to prescription tretinoin.

i'm loving that you've got the cosrx and lrp as backup options depending on how your skin feels, that's really smart planning.
COSRX 0.1% is a good middle ground concentration that's still pretty gentle but definitely a step up.
Since you have combo sensitive skin and want to gradually increase, I'd personally lean toward the COSRX first - it's a smaller concentration jump and the cream base tends to be gentler than some stronger formulations.
I've been using the COSRX one for about a year and really liked the jump from a gentler retinol - the cream base is pretty moisturizing which might work well with your combo sensitive skin.
