HOW TO HELP GET AN EVEN-LOOKING SKIN TONE

Uneven skin is when skin has light and dark patches. This is also known as ‘hyperpigmentation’. It’s no big deal, we’ve all got ‘em. But if you do want to bring about a more harmonious complexion, here’s what you need to know.

Let’s be real. There’s no such thing as perfectly even skin. Pretty much all of us have or will have a blotch or dark spot here and there. If you look closely at your complexion and notice some areas are darker than others, you may have an uneven skin tone.

Ever noticed your skin looking a little different after a long, hot summer spent frolicking outdoors? Brown spots and uneven skin tone are actually the result of your body producing more melanin than usual in order to help protect your skin from UV light.

Indoor and outdoor environmental aggressors can take a toll on skin. City types might be familiar with the build-up of grime after a day spent hopping on tubes and busses. As it happens, particles and gasses from traffic-related air pollution are able to penetrate the skin, paving the way for brown spots, especially on the face.

You may have heard of melasma, a hormone-related hyperpigmentation which is caused by increased hormone stimulation. It’s most commonly experienced by people who are pregnant or taking contraceptives, but it can also result in reaction to cosmetics or medications.

Skin can flare up under physical stress, so it’s common to experience some level of darkening of the skin. Learn more about hyperpigmentation here.
