Beauty help- I'm a mess!

I've been really burning the candle at both ends lately. I'm a sahm, and I'm studying part time. I don't have a lot of spare time really. The last few weeks I've had a chest infection and yesterday I found out my mums seriously ill. I look like shit. I just clocked myself in the mirror and I've got dandruff, frizzy hair, weird little spots on my face that are red and weepy., a crack on my lip and a weird sore bit on the corner of my mouth.

Are there any things I can do in the house tonight that would help my skin? Am going to rub some coconut oil into my hair and shampoo it and straighten it. I've done my eyebrows so they look ok but I have no clue what to do with my face. Any tips?

I know it seems shallow worrying about how I look when I have all that going on but I always feel better about things if I look okay if that makes sense. On top of everything my dds being getting up and crying at 3 am every morning. I know I'm not getting enough sleep.

Cracks in the corners of the mouth can be indicative of Vit B deficiency.
Avoid sugar, get a good multivitamin supplement, lots of water.
Try to have some protein at each meal and lots of green leafy veg.
