I've got oily skin and my doctor recommended Shadowez SPF30 sunscreen. The thing is, whenever I put it on, my skin just gets even oilier. Can you suggest a better sunscreen for my oily skin?

Question

I'm really stressed out because I've had this fungal infection on my inner thigh for a whole year now. I went to a skin specialist and followed the treatment they gave me, and it seemed to clear up. But out of nowhere, it's back again and even spreading. I'm really worried about it getting worse. Can you recommend a specialist or suggest a more effective treatment?

Question

I've recently had rica waxing done on my hands and now I have these brown scars all over. It kinda looks like my skin got peeled off in those spots. Will this heal on its own, or is there something I should be doing to help it along?

Question

I'm a 26-year-old guy living in Mumbai. I used to have a fair complexion, but after years of sun exposure and not really taking care of my skin, my face, hands, and neck have become visibly darker. If I stay indoors for a few days, my skin lightens up a bit, but I can't really do that since I have to work. My body's skin is quite fair, and with my wedding coming up soon, I want to get back to my old skin tone on my face and hands. Can you suggest any daily home remedies or maybe pills like glutathione for this? How safe is it to take glutathione? Are there any side effects, and how likely are they to happen? Also, if I start using it, would the skin tone change be long-lasting, or would I have to keep taking the pills to maintain it?
