Brilio.net - Black spots are one of the facial skin problems that interfere with your appearance. The reason is, this skin problem can make the face look less smooth, dull and have an uneven color. As a result, the appearance becomes less than optimal and the sufferer's self-confidence will also decrease.
The part of the body that is susceptible to black spots is the face, because it has thin skin and is more often exposed to free radicals. This condition is characterized by black or brownish spots on several parts of the face. This facial skin problem is caused by several factors, such as excessive sun exposure, the aging process, use of unsuitable cosmetics, genetics, and pollution.
The more frequently your face is exposed to sunlight without sunscreen protection, the greater the risk of black spots appearing. If you don't use sunscreen, your skin will naturally form protection from the bad effects of sunlight, resulting in excessive production of melanin.
Melanin is what triggers the appearance of black spots or black spots on the surface of the skin or hyperpigmentation. There are many ways you can get rid of black spots, starting from treatment at a beauty clinic, using skincare products specifically for dark spots or black spots, to using natural ingredients .
One of the beauty treatments that is often done to remove black spots is dark spot facials. This treatment is carried out to help fade black spots gradually. However, to carry out this facial treatment you need to dig deep into your pockets.
Well, another solution is that you can use natural ingredients which are more economical and no less effective than treatments at beauty clinics. One of the users of the TikTok account @desakgek, shared how to get rid of black spots by using three kitchen ingredients, namely turmeric powder, honey and lemon.
