Dark spots pus pores face
Hi,
I've always had oily skin but lately it feels more oily. My skin pores look bigger and more prominent. I have bumpy spots on my cheeks along with dark spots on my nose. I wash my face twice daily but still wake up with sebaceous filaments on nose and have to squeeze out and wash.
I get about 4-5 hours of sleep a night and am generally in a stressful job that involves regular travel to different cities.
I use Gillette shaving gel and nivea face cream daily. I want to clear out my skin and close my pores. Please suggest.
Thanks.

Greetings. The following would help you : 1. Daily use of sunscreen - gel based - in day time of SPF 30 applied half hour before sun exposure 2. Daily bed time use of retinoid cream would reduce the oiliness 3. medicated creams / tablets prescribed by dermatologist for reducing your symptoms. Also stop nivea moisturiser if you already have oiliness!! 4.Kindly read my blog on daily skin care on Practo health feed. 5.
