Is this a good skin care routine?

I have normal- combination skin (dry in some areas and oily in t- zone and some other areas) and I was wondering if this is a good skin care routine?
Morning:
Tinted moisturizer (i don’t use foundation because I don’t really need it yet)
Every other morning I use Aveeno Clear Complexion Daily cleansing Pads (before tinted moisturizer)

Night:
I use Purpose Gentle Cleansing Wash (Also is a wash the same thing as a cleanser?)
I then use St.Ives apricot scrub (the medicated one) I really like this product but I don’t know if I should use it everyday, and if it should go after the wash?)
Then I use any random Moisturizer that I find

That’s my skin care routine and is it a good one for my skin type. Also should I use toner, if so which one, and where in my regimen should I use it and how often? Also, if any of you have any recommendations and mini reviews, they are greatly appreciated!
Thank you in advance!

what are some really good skin-care products & tips for my skin type… i’m getting desperate?

i have a pretty uneven complexion, very oily T-zone, super dry cheeks/nose, and frequent breakouts. i found that benzoyl peroxide works a lot better for me than salicilyc acid & i’ve been using proactiv for awhile now but it just sort of stopped working & i can’t afford it anymore lol. i really want to even out my complexion, shrink my pores, clear up the acne/oil, and get rid of the flaky dry skin on my cheeks & around my mouth/nose.

I’m African American my skin is Combination/T-zone. I hardly ever get pimples anymore just the ocassional breakout or two every month. I’ve been using AMBI for about 6 months now and it’s no good. What’s a good Skin Care Brand to try that’s over the counter.
