View allI'm worried about whether mast*rbation could lead to pimples on my face. And how much time should I leave between each time I do it?
Masturbation itself doesn't directly cause pimples, but hormonal changes and lifestyle factors can contribute to acne. There's no need to worry about a specific "gap" between masturbation sessions unless you feel it's affecting your well-being. Focus on a healthy lifestyle, including a proper skincare routine and stress management, to reduce the risk of acne

I accidentally used V Wash on my face but quickly washed it off after about 10 seconds. Should I be worried about any reactions or anything?
It is important to note that V Wash is a vaginal wash and is not intended for use on the face. If you have washed it off your face immediately after realizing the mistake, the risk of any significant harm is low. However, it is possible that it may have caused some irritation or dryness to your facial skin. To help soothe any potential irritation, you can apply a gentle moisturizer to your face. Additionally, if you experience any redness, itching, or discomfort that persists or worsens, it would be advisable to consult a dermatologist for further evaluation and management.

Can melalumin lightening cream be used on lips to decrease melanin, or do I need to get the specific melalumin lip lightener? The chemist said it would work, but I'm not sure.
I would advise against using Melalumin lightening cream on your lips, even if the chemist says it will work. Here's why: 1. Formulation differences: Melalumin lightening cream is formulated for skin use, whereas lip skin is more delicate and requires specialized care. Using a skin cream on lips may cause irritation, dryness, or other adverse reactions. 2. Lip safety: Lips lack the protective barrier of skin, making them more susceptible to irritation and damage. Using a skin lightening cream on lips may increase the risk of adverse effects. 3. Specific lip concerns: Lip lightening products, like Melalumin lip lightener, are specifically designed to address lip concerns, such as dryness, pigmentation, and fine lines. They may contain ingredients that are more suitable for lip care. To ensure safety and effectiveness, I recommend using a product specifically designed for lip care, such as Melalumin lip lightener.
