Four solutions to dark spots and uneven skin tone that have proven to be helpful is what you will find here. The major cause of dark spot and uneven tone is too much sun. So here is what you should consider doing.

#1 Avoid the Cause

The most common cause of uneven skin pigment is sun exposure, but the petroleum-based alcohols found in many skincare products can cause the problem, too. Hormonal imbalance could be the problem if the spot is large.

It’s simple to avoid the sun. All that you need is a big floppy hat or other protective clothing. Just how much good a sunscreen will do is debatable, even when the subject is the prevention of skin cancer. Some research indicates that regular sunscreen users have an increased risk of malignant melanoma, the most serious form of the disease.

One thing is certain; a sunscreen will not lighten dark skin spots, because it will not inhibit melanin production. Over production of melanin is the root cause of your problem.

#2 Improve Your Body’s Antioxidant Status

While the evidence comes mostly from animal studies, researchers believe that antioxidants, found in a variety of plant foods and spices, provide protection from UV damage. Whether or not antioxidants are beneficial for correcting an uneven skin tone remains to be seen.

But, creams containing an antioxidant called coenzyme Q10 may help lighten dark skin spots caused by the sun. Research has shown that creams containing COQ10 reduce general sun damage by about 30% after six weeks of use.

#3 Pick Your Skincare Products with Care

As mentioned in the first step, some skincare products contain petroleum-based alcohols, which can cause uneven skin tone.
Avoid:
*Ethyl
*Methyl
*Isopropyl
*Denatured alcohol

Shopping for paraben-free products will help you do that, because all parabens are mixed with some type of petroleum-based alcohols. In addition, companies that provide paraben-free products are typically more careful about the other ingredients that they use.

In case you are unfamiliar with them, parabens are the most common artificial preservatives, as well as the most common cause of allergic reactions. Natural vitamin E is an effective preservative and it helps to prevent uneven skin pigment. It is also beneficial for many other skin conditions.

It’s just that most companies use synthetic vitamin E, which is not an effective preservative and is not good for the skin’s health, because it is derived from petroleum-based chemicals.

#4 Consider Inhibiting Melanin

This is an optional step. In order to accomplish it, you will need to find a cream that contains cyperus rotundus or nut-grass extract. Inhibiting melanin production will lighten dark skin spots, but it will also lighten the surrounding area. Women often use it to lighten their faces. It works in just a few weeks.
