Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
I would recommend you to use Cetaphil cleansing lotion for sensitive skin for washing face, apply Benzoyl peroxide 2.5 percent gel on pimples twice daily and apply a broad spectrum sunscreen gel on the entire face during the day time.
