So i wud suggest u to dump all products made for dry skin! They are too creamy.

For daily basis u shud go for a facewash which shud be mild not to rip off moisture from ur face. U can try AHAglow if available in ur place or simple pears wud do. For toners try himalaya or plain rosewater. Himalaya is gud, dries quickly. For moisturing in summers use a gel based one. Recently ishita wrote a review about such product in tried n tested thread check that out. For facials if done in parlour go for marine, water based ones, oxy facials, sea weed etc. If done at home use more of oil free moisture ingredients like aloe, glycerine, honey, cucumber, lavender essential oil, tea tree to combat ur acne, small amount of clay to absorb oil from ur skin. any time after using a drying mask like mud use moisturizer immediatly after to keep the skin supple. for ur marks u can try applying sum sandalwood powder+rose water

or u can try rubbing sum papaya for 5 mins, wait for another 5 mins n then wash with plain water. :
Honey is a great remedy for pimples and acne. It kills bacteria and leaves the skin pimple free.

A common home remedy for pimples is toothpaste. Use the paste variety, not gel and gently apply a small drop directly on top of the blemish and let it dry. This will draw the pimple out and leave you blemish free. If left on too long, the skin may become irritated.

Apply ripe tomatoes pulp on pimples and keet upto 1 hour, then wash.

Drink plenty of water and vegetable or fruit juices. Use cucumber or other fruit and vegetable packs to cure pimple scars. Maintain a diet that is rich in cottage cheese, fish and yoghurt. These help to cleanse your system and ward off pimples.

The Pimple affected parts must be thoroughly cleaned and wiped with a soft towel.

Cleanse the face free of make-up at night and before going to bed.

Fuller's earth (multani mitti) pack is an effective means to control pimples.

Daily intake of a spoonful of honey mixed with rose water clears the skin.

Too much fingering and bursting of pimples causes septic and may leave behind permanent marks and damages to your looks.

Grind Neem leaves and turmeric. Mix with water to make a paste. It should be rubbed on the

pimple or scars, this helps clear away the spots.

for whiteheads

Apply the paste of roasted and powdered pomegranate skin with fresh lime juice over your whiteheads to remove or control them.

Drink lots of water everyday and have a good intake of fresh fruits and fruit juices. This would make your skin clear and healthy.

Apply the paste of sandalwood with rose water on your whiteheads and wash it off after some time with warm water.

Apply grated potatoes as poultice to cure your whiteheads.

The paste of fresh fenugreek (methi) leaves in water on the whiteheads every night and wash with warm water the next morning

Wash the skin three times a day with medicated soap, if the skin is greasy.

Have a balanced diet. Avoid fried foods, chocolates, pastries, spices and aerated drinks.

If its mild form of pigmentation, papaya seems to help.

Rub a piece of ripe papaya everyday for 2-3 minutes and leave on for 15 minutes more. Wash with plain water.

Should show you a difference in 2 to 3 weeks.
