Still my face skin is pretty bad
I had to work rough job for last four years where I was exposed to sun for long, is that the problem?

[AI Opinion]

Absolutely, it's quite normal for 22-year-olds to experience pimples and acne. Our skin is influenced by a mix of factors including genetics, stress, diet, hormones, and yes, environmental exposures like sunlight. It sounds like you're doing a lot to care for your skin already, which is fantastic! However, the sun exposure from your job might have contributed, especially if there was sweating involved, as sweat can trap dirt and oil in your pores. Using a high-quality sunscreen specifically designed for the face can help protect your skin. Since everyone's skin is unique, it might also be worth consulting with a dermatologist. They can provide personalized advice and might suggest treatments or changes to your routine that could make a big difference. Don't worry too much; finding the right balance for your skin can take a bit of time, but you're on the right track!
