I've been noticing some white stuff showing up on my face after I shower or wash it, and it's really bothering me. Could you tell me what's going on and what I should use to make it go away?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
After taking shower or washing your face, the white stuff appearing on your face is likely sebum mixed with dead skin cells. This can be managed by using a gentle exfoliating cleanser containing salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide. You can try using a face wash like Neutrogena Oil-Free Acne Wash with 2.5% benzoyl peroxide once daily. Remember to moisturize your skin afterwards to prevent dryness.

I've been dealing with some hair fall issues and saw a doctor who recommended Kz lotion and Recute hair oil. While the hair fall has reduced, I'm not really seeing any new hair growth. My hair still feels pretty weak. I've heard about using egg masks for hairare they actually good? Also, are there any foods that can help with hair growth? I'm really hoping to get my hair strong and thick. Any suggestions?
Minoxidil is known to stimulate hair growth and improve hair thickness. You can apply it to the scalp twice daily. Additionally, you can continue using the Kz lotion and Recute hair oil as prescribed by your doctor. Egg mask can be beneficial for hair as it is rich in proteins and nutrients that can nourish the hair follicles.
