Changes in your skin tone may be caused by sun exposure, stress, changes in work and rest, or skin care habits. If you want to brighten your complexion safely and evenly, you can start from the following aspects： ### 1. **Gentle cleansing + exfoliating** - Choose amino acid cleansers (such as Frefans, Kerun) to avoid dullness caused by excessive cleansing -Use low-concentration fruit acid (5% lactic acid) or enzyme exfoliating products (such as Dermalogica enzyme powder) 1-2 times a week to help metabolize dullness on the surface ### 2. **Antioxidant protection (key step)** -Essential for morning skin care: VC derivatives (such as Keyan's Amber Bottle) + sunscreen (SPF50 PA++++) -Use products containing niacinamide (OLAY blemish white bottle) or tranexamic acid at night to block melanin transmission ### 3. **Emergency brightening plan** -Facial mask: Runbaiyan White gauze facial mask (including light licorice root) + 15 minutes ice towel to apply to the face to quickly improve dullness -Makeup skills: Purple cream (such as Lanzhi Xuesha) neutralizes yellow gas, and choose a matte foundation that is half a size brighter than your skin tone. ### 4. **Lifestyle adjustment** -2L water per day + vitamin C-containing fruits such as kiwi/cherry, etc. - Fall asleep before 22:30 (peak melatonin secretion) -Sun protection is also required indoors (when near the window) ### Need to pay attention： - Avoid using quick-acting whitening products containing mercury chloride and hydroquinone - It takes 28 days (skin metabolism cycle) for skin tone changes to see obvious effects -If accompanied by tiredness, weight loss, etc., it is recommended to check thyroid function and ferritin levels **Diversity of beauty**: Wheat skin tone can also show a healthy and shiny feeling. The key is even skin tone and skin texture. You may wish to try bronze high gloss (such as Fenty Beauty) to create European and American style makeup. It may be easier to change your image style than to reverse your complexion. (Medical reminder: Sudden systemic deepening of skin tone needs to be ruled out endocrine problems such as Addison's disease)
