Greetings. I would advise you to use such a product only under the guidance of a qualified dermatologist and that too for minimum time frame. Topical steroid damaged facies is what you seem to have. Many young people use the marketed fake products promising miraculous results. These fairy tubes have steroid as a component and it damages the skin on a long term basis. Skin becomes very sensitive and thin and it burns even if a day you miss steroids cream. Counselling and education me about the potential side effects of such medicines and how to get back my healthier skin is what you need.
Next Steps
A good skin care regimen comprises 4 steps - cleansing, toning, moisturizing and sunblock. Based on your skin type, a dermatologist will recommend you appropriate products.
