What the heck is going on with my face?

Hoo boy. I admit that I haven't kept up with my usual indoor tanning routine over the winter. I've also been dealing with health and stress issues. I had to use body wash to clean my face in the shower for a couple of weeks. . . but that is a post for another time.
I've been back here at the apartment and work for a week now. I don't know if I'm under more stress or less. I *have* been on a stupid amount of prescription medications for the past several weeks. My facial skin is a hot mess! Red in spots, dry in spots, whiteheads all over the place, etc. This is NOT normal for me.
I've been using gentle scrubbing philosophy cleanser. I've been using face masks. Nothing is helping. . . and no I'm not overdoing it. I don't know what the issue is but I am not happy about it. I'm hoping that regular exposure to UV light while driving in my convertible and spending time at the pool. I'm ready to book a facial though. This is crazy!

Oh spending time at the pool will help
And drinking a lot of water probably will help even more.
That's my answer to everything

I wish I knew what to suggest. I hope the sunlight helps.
