Brilio.net - Doing outdoor activities without skin using sun protection can trigger the appearance of black spots. This can happen because the skin is continuously exposed to sunlight.
Excessive sun exposure can stimulate the production of melanin (the pigment that gives skin its color). This causes hyperpigmentation or black spots on all types of skin.
Apart from being caused by sun exposure, black spots on the face can also occur due to skin trauma. Injury or trauma such as acne, burns, and inflammation can leave black scars. To get rid of black spots on the face because of these two factors, many people rely on brightening creams and prevent them with sunscreen.
Using sunscreen is effective in protecting the skin from sun exposure. So indirectly this sunscreen can prevent the appearance of black spots. Likewise, brightening cream is effective in removing black spots because of the formula in it, such as azelaic acid, vitamin C and licorice.
Apart from relying on skincare products like those above, you can also make treatment creams from natural ingredients. As done by a woman with the YouTube channel @deeba'sbeautyremedies.
He brightens black spots by using aloe vera gel , coconut oil, vitamin E capsules, and glycerin without mixing it with lemon because using this fruit can irritate some skin types.
Aloe vera gel is rich in water and has moisturizing properties that are good for the skin. Aloe vera contains anti-inflammatory compounds that can help reduce inflammation of the skin, including inflammation associated with dark spots. The content of aloin and fatty acids in aloe vera can help speed up the skin cell regeneration process, helping the skin recover from damage and black spots.
Coconut oil contains antioxidants that help protect the skin from damage caused by free radicals which can cause hyperpigmentation. Coconut oil contains essential fatty acids that help maintain skin moisture and suppleness, thereby helping reduce the appearance of dark spots.
Vitamin E capsules are a powerful antioxidant, help fight skin damage caused by free radicals and can fade dark spots. Vitamin E capsules also have anti-inflammatory properties which can help reduce inflammation of the skin and speed up the healing process.
Meanwhile, glycerin is an effective humectant agent, helping maintain skin moisture and preventing dry skin which can worsen the appearance of black spots. Glycerin can help make skin feel smoother and softer, helping to even out skin texture and minimizing the appearance of dark spots.
