Please avoid shave and rather use trimmer . Apply fusidic acid cream morning and evening.
Stop face wash, and stop Encore cream, and change razor frequently it’s aggravating bcoz of Encore cream . Apply Fudic H cream at night for 10 days and clinacin gel in the morning , cap. Amoxil 500mg 3 times a day for one week. Cap. Zolanix 150mg once a week for 2 weeks. White dove soap

looks like folliculitis
Folliculitis means an inflammation or infection of the hair follicles of the skin. Most of the skin is covered with tiny hairs which grow out of hair follicles. In folliculitis, many hair follicles in one area of the skin are affected.
How can folliculitis barbae be treated?
Mild infection usually responds to a short course of a suitable topical antibiotic applied to the skin.
If reinfection is caused from inside the nose, an antibiotic ointment should be applied to the inside of both nostrils. Sometimes other family members, close friends and contacts who may carry the infection in the nose, may also need to be treated.
If chronic inflammation has developed, a mild steroid cream, in addition to an antibiotic, may help.
In more severe cases, your doctor may prescribe an antibiotic to be taken orally, which may act through an anti-inflammatory as well as an antibacterial effect.
Self-care (What can I do?)
If folliculitis barbae is persistent you should reduce contamination from shaving equipment, e.g. using disposable razors or cleaning electric shavers regularly. Metal parts of a shaver can be sterilised with boiling water. If the razor or electric shaver has plastic parts in contact with the skin, these should be carefully cleaned after each shave and soaked in an alcohol-based antiseptic solution. An antiseptic lotion may also be recommended in place of the usual shaving soap or foam. It may also be helpful to shave less frequently and aim to have a 5 o’clock shadow, i.e. not shave too closely.
apply Effigenta cream on affected area 2 to 3 times
JF Sulfur soap to wash face.

looks like an eczema to me made worse by shaving. there is also evidence of infection of the hair roots.
But you will have to see a Dermatologist for diagnosis and treatment.
