Re: Blemishes/skin pigmentation

Hi ,
difficult to say without seeing the areas. Does the pigmentation come after a red irritated blemish? if so, you need to get to the root of the underlying blemishes. Is this acne or spots or something else?

Stick to a simple skin care routine with non-pore blocking ingredients. Make sure you use a SPF, because sunlight stimulates more pigment.
See your doctor to establish the cause of the marks and then you can treat the underlying cause.

best wishes,
Emma
