Dry skin and whiteheads
I am a 20 years old female. Recently, my facial skin has started feeling very dry. It feels uneven and it burns when i apply a moisturizer. Also, I have whiteheads around my eyes which I want to get rid of. What should I do to prevent my skin from drying without aggravating my whiteheads. Also I want to get rid of whiteheads. What can I do to treat these issues. I'd appreciate an elaborate answer with proper instructions. Thank you.

Whitehead, Acne or pimples... Due to hormonal changes..Oily skin causes it...Common in adolescent age...May occur in adults also.. Food like Oily foods, ice cream, chocolate and sweets increase it.. Treatment depends on the grade of pimples or acne..So, please send photos by direct online consultation as it's a must to see which grade of pimples or acne for accurate diagnosis and treatment.
