Brilio.net - Many women crave healthy , clean, evenly bright , and radiant facial skin without the need for makeup. This desire arises so that they can appear confident, especially when seeing a bright and glowing face in the morning. However, daily activities often become an obstacle to caring for the skin properly. As a result, the skin can become dull and black spots appear in several areas of the face.
Some factors that cause dull skin and dark spots include excessive sun exposure, not regularly cleaning the face, using inappropriate cosmetic or skin care products, hormonal changes, and taking medications or having certain diseases. Dark spots on the face occur due to hyperpigmentation, a condition in which areas of the skin with dark spots produce more melanin (coloring pigment) than other areas of the skin. If left untreated, this condition can make the face look dull, patchy, and wrinkled.
However, there is no need to worry, because this problem can be overcome with natural ingredients. In addition to rose water, the owner of the TikTok account @toserba046 suggests adding one type of fruit, namely lemon, to overcome dull skin.
"Just apply this to get rid of dark spots and a dull face that glows with natural ingredients," he said in a video uploaded by briliobeauty.net , Friday (13/12).

Rose water comes from the distillation of rose petals with steam. This method has been used for thousands of years. Initially, beauty treatments with rose water were carried out by the Iranian people, then it spread to many countries including Indonesia.
The benefits of rose water for the face include overcoming dull skin and dark spots. Because rose water contains vitamins A and E which are good for the skin. These contents are also able to exfoliate the skin naturally. The antioxidant content in rose water can also strengthen cells in the face and regenerate the skin so that it looks brighter and smoother.
Likewise with lemons which are known as fruits with vitamin C content in them. Vitamin C in lemons acts as a skin whitener and brightener. Lemons have the ability to remove dark spots and scars obtained from the citric acid content.
The citric acid content in lemons helps exfoliate dead skin cells and facilitates the growth of new skin cells. In addition, the citric acid content in lemons can also overcome dull skin and uneven skin tone.
