Brilio.net - Sunlight is known to be a source of energy and also works as a vitamin for the human body. This is because exposure to sunlight can trigger the production of vitamin D in the body as a component that helps absorb calcium and maintain healthy bones. As a result, the human body becomes healthier because the bones and immune system are maintained.
Even though it has many benefits, sunlight is basically also the main cause of darkening problems on human skin. This is because ultraviolet (UV) waves in sunlight can cause damage to the skin if exposed for a long time. One of the effects is the appearance of pigmentation on the skin, making it look dull.
Usually, dull skin conditions are often accompanied by the appearance of black spots. The process of the appearance of dull skin and black spots is caused by exposure to UV rays which can stimulate melanocyte cells in the skin to produce melanin above normal limits. As a result, not only will dark spots appear, the skin will also appear dirty and lose its natural brightness.
However, you don't need to worry. Apart from having to diligently use sunscreen to protect your skin from the sun, you can also use natural ingredients as an alternative solution to brighten your skin again. You can do this by using a mixture of roses and aloe vera gel, as demonstrated by @iam_pragati via Instagram, reported by briliobeauty.net on Wednesday (7/2).

Reporting from Femina, both flowers and rose water are natural ingredients that have many vitamin components that are beneficial for the skin. The vitamin E in it has antioxidant properties that can fight skin damage caused by the effects of free radicals. Meanwhile, vitamin A can stimulate the regeneration process of skin cells which makes the face look brighter. Not only that, the vitamin C in roses helps reduce melanin production, so it effectively helps brighten dull and dark skin.
