Brilio.net - When you are no longer young, signs of aging such as black spots and dull skin start to become a problem for people over 35 years of age. The appearance of black spots and dull skin certainly makes a number of people worried. The reason is that these two signs of aging make your appearance disturbed. These two problems make the face look less smooth and less attractive, which can reduce a person's self-confidence. The formation of black spots on the face is related to hyperpigmentation, which is a skin condition where the production of melanin (coloring pigment) is higher in areas with black spots compared to other areas of the skin.

This hyperpigmentation is caused by various factors such as hormonal changes, signs of aging, exposure to UV rays, skin inflammation, scars, irritation, or side effects of certain products. Apart from black spots, a dull face is also caused by various factors. Starting from stressful conditions, often staying up late at night, often being exposed to direct sunlight, to dirty environments with various kinds of pollution.

This condition can be made worse if someone is lazy about cleaning their face. As a result, all the dirt or pollution that sticks to the face after doing activities all day can cause various other skin problems , one of which is acne. To overcome this, usually most people will undergo treatment at a beauty clinic and use skincare products sold on the market.

Even though there is no need to dig deep into your pockets for treatments at beauty clinics and buying skincare products, because you can use natural ingredients. Apart from being cheaper, this natural ingredient is also effective in fading black spots and dull skin if used regularly.
