Brilio.net - A dull face is often a problem for many people. The reason is, this condition makes the skin look dull and less fresh. A dull face can be caused by various factors, ranging from an unhealthy lifestyle to certain skin problems.
This condition can make someone look older than their actual age and less confident. One of the main causes of a dull face is the accumulation of dead skin cells on the surface of the skin. Actually, the skin naturally sheds dead skin cells, but if this process is disrupted, these cells accumulate and make the skin look rough, uneven, and lose its natural shine.
Sun exposure, unhealthy lifestyle, lack of skin hydration, and lack of attention in caring for the skin are also some common causes of dull skin. To prevent and overcome dull skin, it is important to exfoliate the skin regularly to remove dead skin cells. Using sunscreen every day is also very necessary to protect the skin from the bad effects of UV rays.
Not only that, taking care of your skin by using natural ingredients can also help make your skin look brighter and glowing. As shared by a TikTok user with the account name @ lailapaul7, who uses a mixture of honey and food ingredients to make her face glow and anti-dull.

Rice contains vitamin B, antioxidants, and minerals that help accelerate skin cell regeneration, making the skin look brighter and fresher. In addition, the fine grains of rice can function as a natural exfoliator that removes dead skin cells and accumulated dirt, which are often the main cause of dull skin. The ferulic acid content in rice also functions as an antioxidant that helps protect the skin from free radicals and pollution.
Benefits of honey for making your face glow and anti-dullness
Honey has humectant properties, meaning it is able to attract and retain moisture in the skin, making it appear more moisturized, supple, and radiant. In addition, the natural enzymes in honey help with mild exfoliation, removing dead skin cells and accelerating cell regeneration, so that the skin looks fresher and brighter.
