I've been getting these rash-like marks on my skin, especially on my arms and legs, mostly in the mornings when I wake up and in the evenings. They really look like mosquito bites, and they're showing up in multiple spots. It's starting to worry me. What should I do about it?

I'm really struggling with a lot of pimples on my face recently and it's quite frustrating. I've been using acnelak facewash and acnesol cream, but they don't seem to be making any difference. My skin is pretty oily, and I'm not sure what else to try. Could you recommend any medicine or cream that might work for me?

It seems like your current treatment is not effective for your oily skin. I recommend trying a combination of benzoyl peroxide and adapalene gel. You can use Benzac AC gel (2.5%) in the morning and Differin gel (0.1%) at night. Make sure to apply a thin layer on the affected areas after washing your face. Remember to use a gentle cleanser suitable for oily skin and apply a non-comedogenic moisturizer to prevent dryness.

Can I use Glyco 6 every day or should it be applied on alternate days? And when it comes to a face moisturizer, should I put it on before or after using Glyco 6? I'm a bit unsure about the right routine to follow.

For beginners stay with alternate days or 2-3 times per week especially if you are new to glycolic acid. For experienced users you can gradually increase to daily use.Use moisture after applying this cream.
