HOW TO HELP PREVENT DARK MARKS

We know that when it comes to caring for your skin, prevention is better than cure. The most important thing to remember is that if you want to fight dark spots on the face and body in the first place, sun protection is essential. Use sun protection with an SPF of 30 or more daily. It is very convenient to use a day cream with built-in SPF protection, but it is advisable to apply a facial sun protection cream over your day cream as well.

THE MOST COMMON FORM OF DARK MARKS

One of the most common forms of dark marks in South Africa is post-acne dark marks. It is mainly triggered due to pimples being scratched and squeezed, and the injured skin being exposed to sunlight. The dark marks left behind after pimples disappear can be even more aggravating and emotionally distressing than the blemishes themselves.
