Hi,
Welcome and thanks for your to HCM.
It appears from your query that you are stressed about your complexion and sensitive skin. It is quite important for you that you should not use any creams or face wash or any other product without a proper medical guidance. For color it is important to use a good sunscreen with least of allergenic potential, it is not the SPF of sunscreen but the frequency and proper usage is more important to get sun protection. On the other side salicylic acid gels are good for oily skin people and in normal to sensitive skin it can cause ore of dryness and dullness. You should meet a proper dermatologist who can guide you for the best of regimes to take care of your skin properly. Additionally improvise on your diet with lots of fruits, and liquids in daily schedule.
Hope this information will help you.
Wish good health for your family.
