Hi there, really need help.

at this moment i'm using only 2 washes.

1. Acne Aid face soap

2. Clean & cleanser (pink tube)

previously i was making sandal wood face mask but it just made my skin dry. moreover everytime after shaving (i shave everyday) my face starts to get these tiny bumps that sometimes would turn into pimples.

I'm also an active person, quite often under the sun for several hours. i read that salcyclic acid is good in removing scars but has side effects on dark sking people as the UV rays may cause scars to be darker.(correct me if im wrong). i used to pick a lot when i was a teenager and sometimes even now. i dont like my skin to have bumps.

i've have not seen a dermatologist due to the potentially high cost.

i've also tried using yogurt, egg white. sandal wood facemask does make lighter but like i said it make my skin dry.

and i seriously do not know what type of face wash to use. should i get i brand? a friend of mine uses only neutrogena facial cleanser. but i'm just not sure. i gotta use an acne cleanser, facial cleanser, and a scrub?

have you considered using manjistha topically? i read that it's good to use to fade hyperpigmentation. consider using besan or chickpea flour to cleanse your skin. it's gentle.
