Can you recommend a good fairness cream for skin whitening that's suitable for acne-prone skin and won't break the bank? I have dry skin that gets oily in the summer. I'm using Retin-A 0.025% and azelaic acid right now. I'm hoping to improve my skin texture, and I'd really appreciate your advice!

For fairness and skin whitening cream suitable for acne-prone skin with a combination of dry and oily skin, I recommend using "Cetaphil Pro Dermacontrol Oil Absorbing Moisturizer SPF 30". This moisturizer is non-comedogenic, lightweight, and helps to control oil production while providing sun protection. Additionally, you can consider using "Kojic Acid Cream" to help lighten dark spots and enhance skin texture. Make sure to apply the moisturizer in the morning and the kojic acid cream at night for best results.

I'm 21 and I'm really struggling with a lot of pimples and acne right now, which I think might be because of my body having too much internal heat. They're popping up around my nose, near my lips, on my forehead, and cheeks. The ones on my forehead are especially frustrating because they swell up but dont really have any seed or pus in them. Any advice on what might be causing this or how I can treat it?
