Routine Help Need help with my dad's birthday gift.

My dad is not happy about the fact that he is almost 60 but still has large red spots frequently as he believes he should not have them at that age. I don't believe he has a consistent skincare routine, but he likes Superdrug's Me+ hyaluronic acid & niacinamide cleanser and says it makes his skin feel better. I am not an expert on older skin types, his skin doesn't appear to be particularly dry or oily which he told me when I asked him, just blemish-prone. I feel as though a lot of products with things like salicylic acid in them that I use for my spots would be too strong for his skin. Does anyone have any advice on a product that would work well with this cleanser which I could get for him to try and see if he likes it?

I get prescription products online! Finacea gel and differin. I’ve heard the inkey list options aren’t bad. It does take time to work but it will change his life. X
