I’m a 25-year-old male with oily, sensitive skin and chronic dandruff. I recently started a full skincare routine to treat facial tanning and pigmentation using niacinamide, AHA/BHA peel, vitamin C, PHA toner, walnut scrub, and sunscreen. Within a few days, I developed 3–4 large, red, painful pimples on my cheeks. They are now severely inflamed with whiteheads, intense burning, and bleed painfully on touch or friction. My skin has become too sensitive to apply even gentle products or cleansers. I’ve completely stopped all skincare. I also have recurring dandruff that returns every week despite using ketoconazole, salicylic acid, and anti-fungal shampoos. I suspect the dandruff may be worsening facial acne or causing fungal flare-ups. I want to know if I can apply Clindamycin or Fucidin on broken or bleeding pimples and which soothing cream will help skin healing. Also need step-by-step guidance for dandruff treatment and safe reintroduction of skincare for tanning.
