For pimples, using a gentle face wash containing salicylic acid helps clear clogged pores. You can apply a thin layer of benzoyl peroxide or adapalene gel on active acne at night. To reduce tanning and uneven skin tone, applying a broad-spectrum sunscreen (SPF 30 or higher) every morning is essential. Creams containing vitamin C, niacinamide, or kojic acid can help fade the tan and brighten your skin safely. Remember to keep your skin hydrated with a lightweight, non-comedogenic moisturiser. If your acne persists or is severe, it is always best to consult a dermatologist for a personalised plan.

I have skin tanning around my eyes. What cream or medicine should I use to treat it?

Skin darkening around the eyes, often called periorbital hyperpigmentation, is very common and completely harmless. To help lighten the area, you can use gentle creams containing active ingredients like Vitamin C, Kojic acid, Niacinamide, or Azelaic acid. Applying a daily broad-spectrum sunscreen with zinc oxide is also crucial to protect this sensitive skin from further tanning. Additionally, ensure you get adequate sleep and stay hydrated. Because the skin around the eyes is highly delicate, I recommend consulting a dermatologist for a personalised evaluation before starting any strong medicated treatments.
