I'm wondering if Tetmosol soap is effective at treating prickly heat. Also, I'm a bit confused about the difference between prickly heat and scabies. Is prickly heat a fungal infection too?

I've got really sensitive and dry skin, especially with this winter weather. My T-zone is full of blackheads and it's driving me nuts. I've been using Dr. Reddy's Venusia cream and Episoft cleansing face wash, but it doesn't seem to be helping much. Can you recommend a good night cream or moisturizer? I also need a scrub that works on blackheads. Plus, my entire body seems to have dead skin cells; any idea for a moisturizing body lotion or oil? My hands and feet are super dry, almost like wrinkled aged skin, and nothing I use seems to fix it, not even glycerine. Would you have any tips on how to deal with all these skin issues?
For your blackheads in the T-zone area, I recommend using a night cream containing adapalene and benzoyl peroxide. You can try using Differin Gel at night. Additionally, for a good scrub to help with blackheads, you can use Neutrogena Blackhead Eliminating Daily Scrub. To address the dead cells on your body, you can use a moisturizing body lotion such as Cetaphil Moisturizing Cream or Bio-Oil. These products will help hydrate your skin and improve its texture. For your dry, rough hands and feet, you can try using O'Keeffe's Working Hands Hand Cream and O'Keeffe's Healthy Feet Foot Cream. These products are specifically designed to moisturize and repair dry, cracked skin. In addition to using these products, make sure to drink plenty of water, eat a healthy diet rich in fruits and vegetables, and protect your skin from harsh weather conditions. Regularly exfoliating and moisturizing your skin will also help improve its overall health and appearance.

I'm trying to figure out whether to use hydroquinone or Melaglow cream for my skin. Is there one that's more effective or better for certain conditions? I'm a bit confused about which one might be right for me. Any advice would be really helpful!
Hydroquinone cream is more effective than melagrow cream.
