I'm really struggling to find a cleanser or face wash that's gentle enough for my sensitive, acne-prone skin. I need something that wont burn or irritate but can still clean my pores deeply, getting rid of all the dirt and makeup residue in just one wash. At the same time, it should be effective against my acne and pimples. Any recommendations?

View allSo I've been dealing with this fungal infection on my mouth, forehead, belly, and thighs, and it's just so frustrating. Ive tried all sorts of creams like terbinafine, pendrum, and lulifine, but it just keeps coming back. I'm really worried about this and not sure what to do next. Any advice on how I can get rid of it for good?
Fungal infections can be stubborn and may require a different approach for effective treatment. I recommend trying a combination of oral antifungal medication along with topical creams for better results. You can take tablet Fluconazole 150mg once a week for 4-6 weeks along with applying clotrimazole cream on the affected areas twice daily. Make sure to keep the affected areas clean and dry to prevent further spread of the infection.

I'm trying to figure out the best way to use benzoyl peroxide with my sunscreen. Should I be putting on sunscreen before or after the benzoyl peroxide? And how long should I wait between applying the two? I'm a bit confused about the order and timing, could you help clear this up?
When using benzoyl peroxide (BPO) and sunscreen together, follow these guidelines: *Application Order* 1. *Benzoyl peroxide first*: Apply BPO to the affected areas, allowing it to dry completely. 2. *Sunscreen second*: Apply sunscreen over the treated areas. *Waiting Time* Wait at least *15-30 minutes* after applying BPO before applying sunscreen. This allows the BPO to penetrate the skin and reduces the risk of pilling or reduced efficacy. *Additional Tips* 1. *Choose a gentle sunscreen*: Opt for a fragrance-free, non-comedogenic sunscreen to minimize irritation. 2. *Select a broad-spectrum sunscreen*: Ensure the sunscreen provides broad-spectrum protection (SPF 30 or higher) to prevent further skin damage. 3. *Reapply sunscreen regularly*: Reapply sunscreen every 2 hours or immediately after swimming or sweating.
