Pigmentation/Freckles

Pigmentation and freckles have the same mechanics when it comes to forming on your face or any parts of your body. These appear whenever you are exposed to the sun. This is much common for people with fair complexion.

Although these are harmless, they can still be pretty tough to deal with since it freckles and uneven skin tone makes you look old.

Dark Spots

The most common cause of having dark spots is from sun exposure. But what’s the difference of dark spots to hyperpigmentation(a.k.a sun spots)?

Hyperpigmentation/freckle/sun spots are solely caused by the sun while dark spots can be caused by the sun and other factors such as a breakout or blemish.

Sun Protection

Pigmentation, freckles and dark spots almost have one factor in common. Sun.

Therefore, in order to minimize the effects of the sun and making your skin discoloration worse, it is very important that you use and apply sunblock.
