I have something to say too...
How do I decide what groups of products and individual ingredients can be used together/layered considering PH or other limiting factors?

I know that’s a very vague answer, but unfortunately there isn’t a clear one. The best thing you can do is to have a strong understanding of chemistry and biology, and to research ingredients that’s you’re interested in including in your skin care routine. And if are in high school or college, go ask a professor/teacher that’s knowledgeable in those subjects.
