Need help with haircare

AoA! This is my first post on reddit xD I was too confused on what to do seeing so many hair oils in ads and then finding out that they use Pinterest photos and bot reviews etc (zojja and there was another one I forgot the name of) my brother uses alif ahlam but I'm not sure if I should use that one so do guide me on that aswell. The main problems I'm facing is hair fall, receding hairline(it's more receded on one side and kind of fine on the other btw I'm 21 male) and severe dandruff but It can be controlled by shampooing everyday and it gets hella scratchy and flakey on the days I don't shampoo (I use dove hair fall rescue that the family uses and as a student I unfortunately can't buy myself a sulfate free shampoo everytime 🥲 but I would probably be able to spend some on oils or medication if needed) and my scalp/hair also get quite oily if I skip a day on washing them although I do apply shampoo in small amount and only on scalp to minimize damage and dryness I don't use any conditioner since I've got thin hair and basically anything applied on my hair just weighs them down. I've got texture but hair can go dry or poofy if I don't mosturize them sometime (extra info I got I think 2b wavy hair)

So that's about everything I had to say if anyone can help me find the oil/shampoo/medication for me, please respond. Btw I also sometimes use ketakonazole that my brother uses when dandruff gets to insane levels. Final info I do got a dermatologist here but I once went to her for one issue several times and she couldn't even fix that till now so I can't trust her with my hair 🫠

[Routine Help] Under eye bags getting worse day by day

Ive always naturally had under eye bags but they seem to be getting worse. I’ve had a stressful few months and I think probably with my lack of self care and just overall lots of crying multiple times a day, it’s gotten worse. I need to fix these immediately as im very pale and the contrast with the darkness gives me a jarring appearance

🚨PLEASE HELP ME FIND AN AFFORDABLE SUNSCREEN 😭☀️ I’M TIRED OF WASTING MONEY

I’m a university student in Pakistan and I seriously need help finding a sunscreen that I can actually afford and use every day.

I recently bought Barrier SC Gel Sunscreen for Rs. 1,700 but it’s only 30 ml 😭. That feels SO expensive for such a small amount especially as a student. Sunscreen is something I need to use regularly so I really need something with a better price-to-quantity ratio.

My budget is around Rs. 1,500–1,700 MAX and I’d really prefer at least 50 ml.

My skin is oily/acne-prone but sensitive and I’m currently using adapalene so I also need something lightweight and preferably gentle.

I’ve already tried: ❌ Reveal Aqua Shield — didn’t suit me ❌ Skin Factor sunscreen — caused breakouts for me

Now I’m honestly scared of wasting another Rs. 1,500–1,700 on a sunscreen that ends up causing acne 😭

I’ve been looking at things like Nirvana Botanics SunSlay, OneSkin Clear Guard, AcneDrops, Possible, Skinjoy, Neue, etc but Reddit reviews are SO mixed that I genuinely don’t know what to choose.

Please recommend something based on your ACTUAL experience especially if you have oily/acne-prone skin.

My requirements: • 💰 Rs. 1,500–1,700 max • 📦 At least 50 ml/g • 🧴 Lightweight / gel / fluid texture • 🚫 Preferably fragrance-free • 🚫 Doesn’t clog pores or cause breakouts • ☀️ SPF 50 ideally • 🇵🇰 Easily available in Pakistan

Please tell me the sunscreen + your skin type + how long you’ve used it + whether it caused acne/comedones. I’d REALLY appreciate honest reviews because I can’t afford to keep buying sunscreens that don’t work for me. 🥲❤️
