Hii dear I can understand how imp it is for you to b upto date in ur profession. Avoid makeup as much as u can. But since your profession demands it plz use oil free makeups. Mineral makeups avoid clogging of pores an prevent acne. Do not use a oil based cleanser to cleanse ur face, use a neutral cleanser that is water-based. Simultaneously you can continue your acne treatments.
