Brilio.net - Having black spots or hyperpigmentation that appears on the face is a big problem faced by a number of people, especially women. Not without reason, the appearance of black spots can affect your appearance when you don't use makeup. With these problems, it is not surprising that many people choose to get rid of black spots immediately.
But before getting rid of black spots, you have to know the cause first. Well, usually these black spots appear quickly because the skin is exposed to sunlight too often. Excessive sun exposure can stimulate melanin production by skin cells as a protective mechanism. This condition can cause black spots, especially on areas of the face that are most exposed to sunlight.
Apart from the factors above, hormonal changes that occur during pregnancy, use of contraceptive pills, and menopause can also cause hyperpigmentation on facial skin. Then trauma to the skin can also cause spots to appear.
So that your face becomes bright and blemish-free again, you need to carry out regular care. As done by a beauty vlogger named @prakrtis-deepasahni. In the uploaded video, which is several minutes long, he uses multani mitti, coffee powder, rosewater, whole milk and lemon.
Multani mitti is a mineral-rich clay-like substance. Multani mitti has good oil-absorbing properties, thereby helping to cleanse the skin and reduce the chances of acne. The mineral content in multani mitti can help improve skin texture and reduce uneven pigmentation.
Coffee grounds contain antioxidants and caffeine which can help increase blood circulation to the skin. The mild exfoliating effect of coffee grounds can help remove dead skin cells and improve the appearance of dull skin.
Meanwhile, rose water has anti-inflammatory and calming properties which can help relieve inflammation of the skin. The antioxidant content in rose water can help protect the skin from damage caused by free radicals.
The lactic acid content in milk can exfoliate dead skin layers and stimulate the regeneration of new skin cells. The protein content in milk can also help improve skin texture and make it feel supple. Meanwhile, the citric acid in lemon is useful as a whitener, so it can help reduce pigmentation on the skin.
Those are the benefits of each ingredient that you can get. So how do you use the ingredients above to remove black spots? For those of you who are curious, let's look at the information below as summarized by briliobeauty.net from the YouTube channel @prakrtis-deepasahni, Thursday (28/3).
