Problem:  UNEVEN SKIN TONE, DARK SPOTS & DISCOLORATION

Remedy: The first step to address uneven skin is proper skincare. Sounds obvious; but are you making sure you're keeping your skin well-hydrated daily and gently exfoliating once a week? Dry skin often appears as dull patches and draws attention to areas of unevenness. And what about sunscreen? Are you using it every single day, year round, no excuses? It doesn't matter how light or dark you are or whether or not you burn, it is imperative if you want to protect and preserve your skin. Sun damage often creates manchas and hyper pigmentation. So stock up on moisturizers and makeup with SPF. You should also invest in a topical Vitamin C powder to mix into skincare to help brighten skin.
