Hi Dear,
Welcome to HCM.
Understanding your concern. As per your query you have oily skin and to improve complexion which is a very common occurrence. Well there can be many reasons for pimples like stress , excessive sun exposure or hormonal changes . Oil skin further play role in getting pimples .If condition doesn't get improved in a month then consult dermatologist for proper examination . Doctor may prescribe steroid ointment and antibiotic like clindamycin. Doctor may also recommend laser therapy or dermabrassion. I would suggest you to apply cream rich in Azelaic acid or Kojic acid and apply twice daily. It will lighten pigmentation on skin. Also apply vitamin C serum at night . I would suggest you to wash your face with facewash containing salicylic acid twice a days and them apply cream containing azelaic acid twice a day , Exfoliate your face with non comedogenic exfoliant . Also apply vitamin C serum at night . Drink lots of water at least 8-9 glasses of water and ear fresh fruits and green leafy vegetables .
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
