I would like to consult you regarding my skin concerns. I get pimples on my face, but not severe acne—usually only 3–4 pimples at a time. My skin type is oily and very sensitive. Whenever I apply natural home remedies such as aloe vera, turmeric, milk, or curd, my skin starts itching, so I have stopped doing any skincare for now. Some of the pimples become painful and red, and after they heal, they leave very dark spots on my face. Over time, my facial skin has become dull and darker. Earlier, I had a fair skin tone, but now my face, neck, and even my hands look darker and uneven. Currently, I am using Nalpamaradi Thailam only on my hands, not on my face. I would really appreciate your guidance on how to treat my pimples, dark spots, and overall skin dullness, considering my sensitive skin,but it did not show much improvement Thank you.
