I'm using Biluma cream for the past couple of days, and it's causing red patches on my cheeks. Is this cream actually good for dark circles and skin whitening? How should I be using it? I'm a bit concerned and could really use some advice.

Biluma cream contains ingredients like Kojic acid, Vitamin C, and Niacinamide, which can help with skin brightening and dark circles.

Red Patches on Cheeks:

  1. Allergic reaction: Stop using the cream immediately.
  2. Skin sensitivity: Reduce frequency of application or dilute the cream with a moisturizer.

Tips for Using Biluma Cream:

  1. Patch test: Apply a small amount on a discreet area before using on your face.
  2. Start with a low frequency: Apply every alternate day and gradually increase frequency.
  3. Use a small amount: Avoid over-application, which can irritate the skin.
  4. Moisturize: Apply a gentle moisturizer after using Biluma cream to soothe the skin.

If the red patches persist or worsen, consult a dermatologist for guidance.

I'm dealing with a fungal infection, and I'm really unsure about whether it's safe to use soap in the affected areas, specifically around the groin and anal ring. What should I do?

Yes, you can use antifungal soap in the affected areas like the groin and anal ring surrounding area. You can use a soap containing ketoconazole or terbinafine. Make sure to lather the soap and leave it on the skin for a few minutes before rinsing off. Use it twice daily for best results.
