Rate my skincare routine! (Or really, just give me advice how to do better)

Hiya - when my son was applying to college last yer there were all these "rate my chances" sites he looked at. I kept thinking I want that for my skincare routine! So I'm finally asking. :).

I am a 54yo white woman. My skin doesn't have any real problems and I've always been super grateful for that! My "issues" are just normal aging -- lack of firmness (hate that), some fine lines that I don't mind too much (yet, lol) and some marionette lines (also hate). I am interested in doing all I can to maintain my skin's health and youthfulness as well as I can for as long as I can (without any botox, needles, fillers or surgery). Here's what I currently do:

Morning:

Evening:

I don't know much about what ingredients I need. I've read articles but it just never sticks in my brain. So what I'd really like to know from you is:

  1. Anything I am missing from my routine?
  2. Anything I can cut out? I feel like I fell into some of these products. Sure, I like how they feel on my skin -- but are they working for me? (Or duplicated by something else?)
  3. Any thing I'm wasting my money on? (Probably a lot, lol) I'd love to know some cheaper swaps that will do the job just as well or better.
  4. In short: what can I do better??

I included links here not as advertisements but so you can look at the ingredients if you're not familiar with the product.

Thank you!!
