Skin redness
I recently used a cream called skinshine cream to treat one or two breakouts i had and it ended up causing redness on my skin and my skin is peeling off.
I tried applying a moisturizer but i'm not sure its working.
Can you please suggest me something that i should do with it?
Pleases stop using skinshine cream as it contains strong steroids which can serious side effects in the long run. Steroid induced acne, photosensitivity, rosacea, atrophy, stretch marks, pigmentation, dryness etc to name a few side effects. Please don't use any such Steroid containing fairness creams. You will require treatment to slowly put you off this cream as the skin becomes addicted to the steroid. Hence you are facing such a problem. Please consult me for treatment.
