Is Skinlite cream really effective for treating acne and dark spots? Also, could you let me know if it has any side effects? I'm curious if it also helps in getting a fairer complexion.

I've been dealing with exfoliative cheilitis, and my lips are constantly dry and peeling. They even turn white when they touch water, which I think might be a side effect from some vitamin supplements I took, though I can't remember exactly which ones. I'm currently seeing a dermatologist, but I haven't noticed much improvement. Is this condition something that can be cured?

Dermat opinion is advised to the patient.

Both Neosporin and T Bact ointments are effective for minor cuts and wounds, but Neosporin, containing neomycin and polymyxin B, has a broader antibiotic spectrum, making it a slightly better choice for preventing infection and promoting healing.
