Hi,
You seem to suffer from two problems. One is acne and other is dry skin. For acne, you take cap minocycline 50 mg daily for few months. Apply clindamycine gel on the lesions. And for dry skin,apply moisturising cream or lotion like cetaphil moisturising cream. Avoid sop on dry skin. Cleanse the face with face wash.
Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
