I've heard that Derma Dew Glow Cream might be good, but I'm wondering if it's actually effective for reducing acne marks. Do you think it's safe for me to use it on my own, or should I check in with a dermatologist first?

I've been experiencing some side effects on my neck from using melameate cream consistently. There are these dark, long-shaped spots and it's starting to itch. How can I treat this? And if I decide to use the cream again, should I use it continuously or take breaks? If breaks are needed, how often should I take them?

You may be experiencing a reaction to the melamet cream. To treat the dark long shaped spots and itching on your neck, you can use a mild steroid cream like hydrocortisone 1% cream twice a day for 1-2 weeks. Additionally, you can take an oral antihistamine like cetirizine 10mg once daily to help with the itching. It may be best to switch to a different medication if the current one is giving you adverse reactions.

I'm looking to try a Glutathione soap here in India and I'm curious about which brand you might recommend as the best. Also, I'm a bit concerned about whether there are any side effects I need to watch out for. My skin tends to be quite dry, so I'm also wondering if it's safe and suitable for someone with dry skin. Would love to hear your thoughts!

There are several popular Glutathione soaps available in India, such as Gluta-C Intense Whitening Soap, Belo Essentials Intensive Whitening Bar, and Kojie San Skin Lightening Soap. These soaps are known for their skin brightening and antioxidant properties. As for side effects, some people may experience mild irritation, dryness, or redness when using Glutathione soap. It is important to do a patch test before using it regularly to check for any allergic reactions. Dry-skinned individuals can still use Glutathione soap, but it is recommended to follow up with a moisturizer to prevent further dryness. Additionally, using a gentle and hydrating soap can help maintain skin moisture levels. Remember to use the soap as directed and discontinue use if you experience any adverse reactions.
