Face wash with either salicylic acid or benzoyl peroxide may help in removing dead skin cells which clogs the pores leading to acne. Either of them may help only in mild grade of acne. You can choose face wash with salicylic acid if you have blackheads, whiteheads and comedones and face wash with benzoyl peroxide if you have pus filled pimples.

I've noticed some dark spots under my armpits and the skin there is quite a bit darker than the rest of my skin. It's strange because there are these dark spots on the upper part too. Should I be worried about this or is there something I can do about it?

The dark-colored spots and hyperpigmentation under your armpits may be caused by excessive sweating, shaving, or friction, and can be treated with topical creams containing hydroquinone, kojic acid, or retinoids, as well as home remedies like turmeric, lemon juice, or cucumber, and maintaining good hygiene and using gentle hair removal methods.

Can you recommend a cream that actually helps get rid of stretch marks? I've tried a few, but nothing seems to work. I'd really appreciate the name of a good one if you have any suggestions.

I'm 25 years old but my skin looks dull and loose, almost like I'm more middle-aged. I've got pigmentation on my face and dark circles under my eyes. My skin is also really rough and dry. What could be causing this, and what can I do to improve my skin?
