I've recently used instant wax strips about a week ago, and now I've got this black mark on my upper lip that looks like a mustache. I'm worried about itdo you think bio-oil might help to clear it up? Also, how long might it take to see some improvement?

I've been using Neutrogena sunscreen for quite some time, but after running out and not using it for about a week, I noticed it started causing breakouts when I applied it again. I have acne-prone and combination skin, so I'm really concerned. What sunscreen would work best for me?

It is important to choose a sunscreen that is non-comedogenic and oil-free to prevent further breakouts. I recommend trying "La Roche-Posay Anthelios Clear Skin Dry Touch Sunscreen SPF 60". Apply a generous amount to your face and neck 15 minutes before sun exposure, and reapply every 2 hours or immediately after swimming or sweating. This sunscreen is specifically designed for acne-prone skin and provides high protection against both UVA and UVB rays.

I'm really concerned about my 3-month-old daughter's skin. I've been using a massage routine with homemade ghee, and then I apply a mixture of gram flour, raw milk, and turmeric powder after 15 minutes. I want to know if it's safe to use these things daily to help lighten her skin tone. Is this okay for her delicate skin? What would you suggest I do to help her?

No they are not adviced to use because their skin is sensitive,you can use natural oils nothing more than that

I've been dealing with a lot of ingrown hairs on my legs from shaving, and it's really frustrating. I've tried waxing multiple times, but those pesky ingrown hairs just won't disappear. It's starting to feel hopeless. Is there any solution to finally get rid of them once and for all?
