When's the best time to take Humdard Safi for maximum effectiveness? I'm taking it on an empty stomach but experiencing loose motions. Someone mentioned this might just be a temporary thing. Is this normal, or should I be concerned?

View allI'm really curious about how glycolic acid cream works, especially if I'm already using benzoyl peroxide 2.5% for my acne. My skin is pretty sensitive, so I'm worried about potential reactions. What's the best way to use these products together to avoid irritating my skin? Any tips would be super helpful!
Glycolic acid cream works by exfoliating the skin, unclogging pores, and promoting skin cell turnover, which can help improve acne. When used in conjunction with benzoyl peroxide 2.5%, it can enhance the effectiveness of the treatment by further exfoliating the skin and reducing inflammation. For sensitive skin, it is important to start with a lower concentration of glycolic acid (around 5-8%) and gradually increase the frequency of use as tolerated. It is recommended to apply a small amount of glycolic acid cream to clean, dry skin once every other day initially, and then increase to daily use if there is no irritation. Always follow up with a moisturizer and use a sunscreen during the day when using glycolic acid, as it can increase sun sensitivity.

I've got this dark mark above my lips on my face, and I've tried a bunch of creams, but nothing seems to work. It's really noticeable, kind of looks like a mustache shadow or something. Could you recommend any cream that might help? And if there's something I can use daily that boosts fairness, that would be awesome.
Treatment Depends on the type and depth of skin colour.... Please send photos for accurate diagnosis and treatment.

I'm struggling with acne and I've heard that milk could be a factor. Could you suggest an alternative to normal milk that might help with my skin? Also, what type of milk would you recommend for someone dealing with acne issues? Would love some guidance on this!
For acne-prone skin, consider switching to low-hormone, non-dairy milk alternatives like almond milk, oat milk, or coconut milk, which are naturally rich in antioxidants and less likely to trigger hormonal breakouts; among dairy options, goat's milk or A2 cow's milk may be better tolerated due to their unique protein structures and lower hormone levels.
