Brilio.net - Having a clean, bright face, and free from dark spots is the dream of many people. For women, clean skin is often considered a standard of beauty that increases self-confidence and supports everyday appearance. However, problems such as dark spots often appear on the surface of the skin.
Dark spots, or hyperpigmentation, occur when the skin experiences increased melanin production. This condition can appear on various areas of the body, such as the hands, back, shoulders, and face. Causes vary, including sun exposure, inflammation, hormonal changes, and skin aging.
Although dark spots are a common skin condition, it is important to treat them immediately. Many people choose laser treatments at beauty clinics to treat this problem, although the cost is quite high. Alternatively, dark spots can be removed without a large cost.
One natural way is to use a mask made from dragon fruit. This red fruit is rich in antioxidants and vitamin C, which can protect the skin from damage.
Vitamin C in this fruit plays a role in brightening because it can stimulate collagen production. Meanwhile, the acid content in dragon fruit helps fade dark spots.
The main ingredient in the mask is not only that, the presence of yogurt with lactic acid and vitamin C content can overcome inflammation. The content also helps regenerate cells and even out skin tone.
