Brilio.net - The habit of not using sunscreen when doing outdoor activities can cause dull skin and uneven color. Not without reason, sunlight will trigger excess melanin production as an effort to naturally protect the skin from the bad effects of sunlight. Melanin itself is a natural pigment that gives color to skin and hair.
Well, this excess melanin production will cause the skin to become dull and have an uneven color. Apart from sun exposure, dull and uneven skin can also be caused by a buildup of dead skin cells and pollution. That is why using sunscreen and exfoliating your skin regularly can be an effort to maintain healthy and beautiful skin.
Apart from sun exposure and the buildup of dead skin cells, there are several other factors that can also cause a dull face, such as pollution, lifestyle and lack of facial care. Therefore, many people are looking for ways to deal with their dull faces. One way is to use skincare products that contain brightening agents, such as vitamin C serum.
Vitamin C serum is believed to be effective in brightening and whitening a dull looking face. But unfortunately, not everyone is suitable for using the products sold on the market. The reason is, vitamin C serum usually has a fairly high active substance content, so sometimes it actually irritates the skin. Especially for those with sensitive skin.
Another solution, you can use natural ingredients that are safer and friendlier to your pocket. One of them was shared by a TikToker via his personal account @bareskinlab.official on December 6 2023, which contains how to whiten a dull face using only 1 type of fruit. The fruit in question is a tomato.
" Can you even use tomatoes to make your skin healthy? Let's try this method, " said the TikToker in the description of the uploaded video, which briliobeauty.net quoted from the TikTok account @bareskinlab.official, Monday (15/4).
