Fairness Cream With Aloe Vera, Saffron & Turmeric Extracts

What are the reasons for uneven (or dark) skin tone?

Our basic skin tone is decided by our genes. However, over time a number of factors cause it to darken or become patchy. The biggest factor happens to be sun exposure.

Our body produces melanin (darkening pigment) as a defense against UV rays. This is commonly referred to as sun tan. However, the distribution of melanin, throughout our body is not uniform. Thus, non-uniform secretion causes some spots to be darker than the others; resulting in unevenness.

Another factor is sebum (natural oil) production in our body. Too much of it causes acne (that may also leave scars) and blackheads; while too less means dry, cracked skin, and accumulation of dead cells; all of which result in uneven texture.

Moreover, as we age, new cells generate at a slower rate; making it difficult to undo the damage so induced; and only adds wrinkling to the list.

Multi_Vitamins

How do Vitamins (A, B, C, E) work in improving skin texture?

Topical application of Vitamins A, B, C and E makes the skin supple, smooth and even. The suppleness of the skin is owed to Vitamin B, which enhances the ability of the skin to retain moisture. The smooth texture and even tone is a synergistic effect of all.

Multivitamins even help the skin against acne and blackhead problems. Vitamin E cleanses the skin; Vitamin C exfoliates (removes dead cells and impurities) and tones (unclogs and shrinks pores); Vitamin A and C reduce oiliness; and Vitamin B renders anti-inflammatory action.

They even help in lightening of skin (Vitamin C), dark-spots, acne marks and scars (Vitamins C and E); as well as in treating of pigmentation anomalies (Vitamins A and B) and red blotchiness (Vitamin B).

Foot Scrub With Fenugreek & Lemongrass Oil
