How To Get Rid Of The Pimple And Oily Skin Problem?

i am a 25year old African woman, not married and have no kids. i have a really oily face and usually get pimples when about to start my menstrual cycle. i can't stand having pimples on my face so keep applying products every time to i have a smooth face. without the products it gets really bad. recently things have gone worse, i get a lot of pimples on my face even when i am not close to starting my menstrual cycle. once i stop using any facial products they just seem to multiply on my face leaving behind blackheads. my face is now all covered in blackheads. i am very worried and do not know what to do because i am now scared of applying any facial product that may end up worsening the situation. i really want my face to come back to normal with no blackheads, no pimple just a smooth beautiful baby face. please i need your help urgently. thank you

Thank you for the query.we as dermatologists do not recommend any make up products which many times may harm skin than do good.Wash your face 3-4 times a day with cleansers or mild soap.use antidandruff lotions if u have dandruff.Tretinoin cream has to be applied in the night after a face wash.there may be some skin peeling and irritation initially which you get adjusted by 7 to 10 days. For pus filled lesions use topical clindamycin or erythromycin gels.
