First of all let me tell you, only this cream will not work. Along with this, take one vitamin e capsule at night and use as a face wash. You will get some results, but it is better to get treatment under the supervision of a dermatologist, if necessary you can get treatment online with us.

Pimples, also known as acne, are primarily caused by a combination of factors involving the skin's oil glands, hair follicles, bacteria, and hormonal changes. Here are some of the common causes of pimples: 1. Excessive sebum production: sebum is an oily substance produced by the sebaceous glands in the skin. When the sebaceous glands produce too much sebum, it can clog the hair follicles, leading to the formation of pimples. 2. Clogged pores: the hair follicles or pores can become clogged with dead skin cells, dirt, and other debris. When this happens, it creates an environment where bacteria can thrive, causing inflammation and resulting in pimples. 3. Bacterial activity: the skin is home to bacteria, including propionibacterium acnes (p. Acnes). This bacterium feeds on the sebum produced by the skin and can multiply rapidly in clogged hair follicles, leading to inflammation and the formation of pimples. 4. Hormonal changes: hormonal fluctuations, particularly during puberty, menstruation, pregnancy, and menopause, can increase sebum production and alter the normal functioning of the skin. This hormonal imbalance can contribute to the development of pimples. 5. Diet: while the relationship between diet and acne is not fully understood, some studies suggest that certain foods, such as high-glycemic-index carbohydrates and dairy products, may worsen acne in susceptible individuals. However, more research is needed to establish definitive links. 6. Stress: stress can aggravate acne or contribute to its development. High-stress levels may increase inflammation in the body, leading to acne flare-ups. 7. Medications: some medications, such as corticosteroids, androgenic steroids, and certain anticonvulsants, may cause acne as a side effect. 8. Cosmetic products: certain makeup, skincare products, and hair styling products that are comedogenic (tend to clog pores) can contribute to the development of pimples. It's important to note that the causes and severity of acne can vary from person to person, and treating acne effectively often requires a tailored approach based on individual factors. If you're experiencing persistent or severe acne, it's advisable to consult a dermatologist for proper diagnosis and treatment.

You would also need an active gel to reduce your acne, which should be applied at night and washed of in the morning with ahaglow face wash. You neednt apply a moisturiser after washing your face, if your skin is always oily. Instead you can apply a gel type non-comedogenic sunscreen.

Follow this 1. Do saline gargles daily. 2. Whenever possible do steam inhalation also. 3. Cover your nose and mouth with hanky for at least 30 sec when you go in dusty areas also when you go in and out of ac. As our nose is the most sensitive part of our body, when there is temperature difference between two rooms or inside n outside, then if we not protect our nose, it gets affected. 4. Drink hot liquids --hot liquids relieve nasal congestion, prevent dehydration, and soothe the uncomfortably inflamed membranes that line your nose and throat. 5. Sleep with an extra pillow under your head-- elevating your head will help relieve congested nasal passages. If the angle is too awkward, try placing the pillows between the mattress and the box springs to create a more gradual slope. 6. Treat that stuffy nose with warm salt water-- salt-water rinsing helps break nasal congestion, while also removing virus particles and bacteria from your nose. 7. Blow your nose often (and the right way)-- it's important to blow your nose regularly when you have a cold rather than sniffling mucus back into your head. But when you blow hard, pressure can carry germ-carrying phlegm back into your ear passages, causing earache. The best way to blow your nose: press a finger over one nostril while you blow gently to clear the other. Homeopathic treatment has very encouraging results. Consult online.
