Dermatologist 's  Response
Hi.
thanks for posting your concern at HCM

Glintra gel contains clindamycin 1%. It can used once or twice daily. The recommendation is to apply only over the affected area rather than over whole face.

Elovera IMF lotion is an intensive moisturizing cream, not recommended for face. It can be used over arms legs hands and feet.

Since you already have acne, using a moisturizer can exacerbate your acne even more. Therefore I wont advocate elovera in your case

regards
