Hello. Thanks for writing to us at healthcaremagic
Lacto calamine has an oily base(castor oil), therefore it may cause acne because of occlusive effect. Other factor like weather conditions e.g hot, humid conditions in summer season; Stress, Hormonal changes etc also play a role in causing acne I would suggest you to stop using lactocalamine for the time being. If I was the treating doctor I would have asked you to use topical clindamycin during day time and adapalene gel during night for your acne. Visit a dermatologist for a visual assessment and appropriate treatment Use a gentle cleanser for face wash like cetaphil cleansing lotion, twice daily and take at least 8-10 glasses of water daily
