Sanjana Asks
My age is 21 and I am still student so m not much into makeup products rather I am more into skin-care products
1. My face has extreme acne problem and my color tone is very fair so it looks very odd… It seems that i have lots of pink dots on white which sometimes is embrassing and to add more probs my skin is in combination- oily at t-zone and extreeme dry at other parts and currently I am using neuteogena face wash
2. My hair. They are most unique.They are dry but after using olive oil as suggested by you in ur blog and some hot water towel has done wonders to it but still there are some problems that are unsolved. i have long hair bt I hav some short hair in front dat are still very dry and frizzy and they keep popping out and it seems like something is standing on my head and to add to more probs my hair not straight and not curly they are wavy and bouncy so I can’t have bangs to hide this and using serums at front makes them look extremely oily
Acne is best tackled with the help of a dermatologist Sanjana…So if u think the problem is beyond your control and recurrent, visit a dermatologist.The reasons for acne are varied and individualistic and the dermo only can best provide the solution after discussing the case with you.I am sure it will help. :yes: :yes:
hey thanx alot 4 replying…. i will definately look 4 dermatologist
There are a number of reasons which might be responsible for your acne like diet,hormones etc.Identify the cause and then rectify it.In the meanwhile try besan,haldi and milk scrub.
Use ice cubes to bring down the redness and inflammation.Apply Lacto calamine liberally all over your acne overnight.And most importantly keep your face clean at all times.Also keep your scalp clean because the oils from the scalp can aggravate acne.
For your hair try a protein rich pack.Apply twice a month before shampooing.Continue with your olive oil therapy it will help in the long run.Use conditioner specifically for dry hair.
thanx 4 replyin, i will try this pack…. bt m already applyin ice and it has reduced redness…
and i will try this suggestion… i hope this work….
and i guess egg will work as protein pack…..
:thanks:
truly said anupam… sanjana u must visit a dermatologist if possible..
i too have periodic acne and even my skin type is very fair…
i personally use vichy normaderm line day and night cream and face wash of sali DS..
ALL THE THREE PRODUCTS REVIEW HAVE BEEN DONE HERE..
however even i feel if through these products does not helpp… dermotologist is ur best guide :worship:
:thanks: 4 repyin………. products help bt dey are tmporary…… i tried out some docs bt dey were like it happens in ur age…… bt i guess now its high tym 2 luk aftr dermotologist
try using keracnyl facewash ull get it at a chemist. even cetaphil is good… cetaphil has a moisturiser too for combination skin…cetaphil works weel with most people..for dry frizzy hair its extremely important t use those deep conditioners.. not regular ones…
u can try wella , shwarzkopf, loreal they all have good deep conditioning hair masks which work very well…u should get those at beauty shops or salon… i had frizzy hair too but they are very tamed due to deep conditioning… u can try serums too after wash.. loreal makes awesome ones..
u can also consult a dermat and get dosage of vitamn A capsules.. they work wonders too 🙂
good luck 🙂
thanx alot 4 replyin presently m using matrix serum one bt i guess aftr day m goin 4 loreal one as d reveiws 4 loreal are superb… :thanks:
your prob sounds serious to me …i hv combination skin too and acne are frequent visitors on ma face … yours seem to be more serious prob … consult a dermatologist
as for your hair .. i suggest lo’real
:thanks: 4 replyin
you should consult a dermatologist and try more homemade recipes and not the ones that comes packed , i have been using besan and lemon for seven years now , i do not wash my face with anything else and i am prity acne free but sometimes when aunt rose visits i do get some but they vanish because of the lemon . you should try the besan and lemon , just make it into a paste and wash your face with this only and see the results in 1 month 🙂
im with You Komal because using so many products on face can bring up so many other problems.. :X Keeping it simple & homemade actually helps a lot. 😉 . my sister was also facing same problem & she only try to use Beasn with Lemon paste & clean her face all the times.. & it helps her a lot.. :waytogo:
For Hairs: I think u shud go with what “Ash89” has suggested you.. 😉
Take Care.. :))

Hey sanjana! For your hair, avoid using a towel. Dry your hair with a cotton t-shirt. This really helps in eliminating the frizz.
Sanjana…you should consult a dermatologist for your acne problem. There are many reasons for acne. Try to find out the reason and then the cure. :))
And for your hair….if they are frizzy use a good conditioner and apply serum after the wash and then lightly towel dry. So the serum won’t make your hair too oily. I do this and it works. :yes:
hi sanjana ,
I have used cetaphil face wash n still using it … bt i dint had severe acne ..
it controlled n cured them but dont prevent thm … better visit a dermatologist
Sanjana- along with everything if you can get hold of BIO OIL try that too BUT along with the acne medicines.. It’ll take care of all the acne scarring and even if it is an oil its for oily acne prone skin…
i’m using it personallly and it really works..
hi Bee!! whats this BIO oil???
I’ll review it soon. It’s grt for acne scars and stretch marks.

Sanjana……I think its your hormones in your acne case. Keep a mild face wash with you always and use non-pore-clogging day cream and makeup products. As far as hair is concerned……mmmmm….I would have said serum, but it makes your look oily na……..hair serum generally works for me………. :wilt:
