Can I use vitamin E Evion 400 on my face and hair? I've heard from a lot of people that it's great for skin, but I'm unsure if it's safe or effective. Is this something I should be worried about, or is it okay to try?

  1. Topical Use vs. Oral Use:

    • Evion 400 is designed as an oral supplement. While some use vitamin E oil topically, it's not the intended use for these capsules.
  2. Skin Sensitivity:

    • Perform a patch test on a small skin area before applying to your face to check for allergic reactions or irritation.
  3. Benefits:

    • Vitamin E has antioxidant properties that may moisturize skin and improve hair health, though effectiveness varies.
  4. Potential Issues:

    • Using capsule contents on skin can clog pores or cause breakouts, especially if you have oily or acne-prone skin.
  5. Alternatives:

    • Consider products specifically formulated for skin or hair care for safer and more effective use.

For personalized advice, consult a dermatologist. Proceed cautiously and monitor your skin’s response.

For pimple-prone skin with cystic acne and itching, it's essential to choose a gentle, non-comedogenic soap that won't clog pores. _Dermadew Acne vs. Dermadew Lite_ 1. *Dermadew Acne*: Contains salicylic acid (2%), which helps: - Exfoliate the skin - Unclog pores - Reduce acne 2. *Dermadew Lite*: A gentler, fragrance-free version with: - Lower salicylic acid concentration (0.5%) - Soothing ingredients like aloe vera _Recommendation_ If you have severe acne and itching, *Dermadew Acne* might be a better option due to its higher salicylic acid concentration. However, if you have sensitive skin, *Dermadew Lite* could be a better choice.

I've got some boils on my thighs and I've been taking amox capsules for them. Is that the right way to go about it, or should I be doing something else? What's the best way to treat these boils?

Taking Amox capsules for boils on your thighs may be incorrect without a proper diagnosis, as boils are typically caused by bacterial infections like Staphylococcus aureus, and Amox capsules are usually prescribed for specific bacterial infections; instead, try applying warm compresses to the affected area, keeping it clean with antibacterial soap, and seeking medical attention if the boil becomes severely painful, large, or accompanied by fever or pus.
