Weird patch of dry skin on my forehead?

A week ago I had a pimple on my forehead. I put some of my pimple cream on it, and it soon went away.

This week, the area where the pimple was has formed into a large patch of dry skin. The skin color is slightly darker than my normal skin color. It has been a little flaky so I've been putting moisturizer on it, but it stands out and looks awful.

Is there any way to get rid of it before Saturday? Or at least as soon as possible, because it has been a pain.

Thanks :)

    I think that you skin reacted to the pimple cream. Don't use it again.

    Apply coconut oil to the affected area. Do not use moisturizer. Coconut oil is a much better healing agent. You can buy it at any local Indian store.

    Also, apply some milk to the affected area. Milk has nutrients which can help heal the skin, plus a chemical in milk has been found to lighten the skin.
