Every night I take off my makeup with the maybelline flash express lotion. I then use a witch hazel toner. I then will either use a blackhead clearing scrub and my moisturizer, or just my epiduo.

I also use a green tea scrub in the shower about every other day.

is all this too much for my face?

Scrubs in general are to be used on a weekly rather than daily basis. but then again I'm on the fence when it comes to toners. maybe I'm weird but generally I don't like them.

Scrubs are a little harsh you should only be using them a few times a week. I would go with a cleanser, toner and moisturizer and try to keep it consistent. I notice when I change my routine it throws my skin off. Plus for most things to work as they say it needs to be one thing.

Well depends. Is your face red? Sensitive? Or does it have more break out than usual. Depending on your skin type. For example, I have severe oily skin and I'm prone to acne. So I use a scrub 2 times a week. And I use toners to take my makeup off or just to finish the cleansers job, but I use it in a sparingly amount. Even though I have very oily skin, I use an oil base moisturizer at night and a matifiing one in the morning. You don't want to do too much because it could damage your skin.

Scrub only once or twice in a week.

If you're having breakouts or redness, dryness or sensitivity then yes it's too much. But if your skin is fine then continue doing what you're doing. Everyone's skin is different and it will respond to things differently than someone else's. I use my Clarisonic twice daily and some will say that's too much but my skin needs the cleansing or I'll be oily and broken out so it isn't too much for my skin. For someone who has dryer skin it might be too much. Bottom line, everyone is different. But if you are using a scrub every day I would recommend Burt's Bees Citrus Facial Scrub because it's 99% natural and is actually a very soft and gentle scrub that can be used daily without the irritation that some other very abrasive scrubs can cause.
