DONOT USE MUSTARD COCONUT WALNUT GROUNDNUT ALMONDS AND SOYA OILS
USE NON TOXIC SHAMPOOS CREAMS SOAPS
APPLY CLINDAMYCIN GEL IN THE MORNING
REPEAT IN THE EVENING IF YOU HAVE TIME
AT NIGHT USE RETINOIC ACID GEL BEFORE SLEEP AND SWITCH OFF LIGHT AS IT REACTS WITH SKIN
IF YOU FEEL DRYNESS YOU CAN ADD LITTLE FLUTICASONE CREAM IN THE GEL FOR OR 2 DAYS
