I'm considering trying Jiaobi skin whitening cream, but I'm a bit worried about its safety. Does it have any harsh chemicals in it? Is it okay to use it for the long term? I'd appreciate any advice on this.

Jiaobi skin whitening cream may contain harsh chemicals like hydroquinone, mercury, or steroids, which can have adverse effects with long-term use, so exercise caution and consult a dermatologist before using it.

I've been dealing with a fungal infection between my last two toes on both feet. I used to use Lulifin Lotion from Ranbaxy, and it worked to keep it under control. But lately, I can't find it anywhere. Could you recommend another option? Also, I have to use a dusting powder like Tzyo or Candid every day because the space between my toes is narrow. Is there a permanent solution you could suggest?

Probable diagnosis is fungal infection , candid cream for local application, once daily for 2 weeks is advised, also tab levocetrizine 10 mg at bedtime for 7 days is advised, if any allergic reactions dermat opinion is advised.

My face seems to be getting darker, even though Im pretty careful about avoiding the sun and staying out of pollution. Im really puzzled because I thought I was taking good care of my skin. Could there be something else going on with it?

You may be experiencing hyperpigmentation. I recommend using a skin lightening cream containing hydroquinone, such as Melalite cream, to help lighten the dark spots on your skin. Apply a thin layer of the cream on the affected areas once daily in the evening. Additionally, using a broad-spectrum sunscreen with SPF 30 or higher during the day can help prevent further darkening of the skin. Make sure to consult with a dermatologist before starting any new treatment.

Which shampoo is best for hair growth and thickness?

Shampoo doesnt promote hair growth but it can keep your scalp oil and dirt free and clean. Always choose a mild shampoo and dilute it with water before using it
