5 Products To Fade Dark Spots

Dark spots or post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation are common on the skin and can be caused by many different factors including, sun damage, wound healing, irritation, pregnancy and more. They occur when some parts of the skin produce more melanin than others, darkening the colour of that area. They are not something to be concerned about but many people like to cover or fade them for cosmetic reasons.

There are a few magical ingredients that work wonders for brightening dark spots such as glycolic acid, niacinamide and vitamin C, depending on the shade and size of your dark spot, the time it takes to fade may vary.
