Zincal Cream contains calamine, zinc oxide, and simethicone, and is mainly used to soothe and protect the skin while promoting wound healing. It is not specifically designed for oily, acne-prone skin. It is safe for use on intact skin but should not be used on broken or infected skin. Zinc oxide may help calm mild inflammation and reduce discomfort, but it does not treat acne or reduce oil production. For oily and acne-prone skin, it may feel heavy or greasy in some people and could potentially block pores if used over large areas or for long periods. Therefore, it should be applied only in a thin layer to small affected areas, rather than to the entire face. Proper acne management usually requires gentle cleansing, non-comedogenic products, and sometimes prescribed treatments that target excess sebum and acne-causing bacteria. If your acne is persistent, painful, or spreading, it is better to consult a dermatologist for personalised treatment rather than relying only on soothing creams.
