What causes unnatural pigmentation?
Let’s break it down ✨👇

Unnatural pigmentation (like dark spots, melasma, or uneven tone) happens when melanin, the pigment that gives your skin color, is overproduced. Here are the main triggers:

☀️ Sun exposure – UV rays are the #1 cause of pigmentation. They trigger melanin production as a defense mechanism, leading to sun spots or freckles.

⚖️ Hormonal changes – Fluctuations in estrogen and progesterone (for example, during pregnancy or from birth control) can lead to melasma.

🧴 Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH) – After acne, eczema, cuts, or burns, your skin can leave behind dark marks as it heals—especially in deeper skin tones.

🧬 Genetics – Some people are more prone to pigmentation due to their genetic makeup.

🩺 Medications or medical conditions – Certain drugs (like chemotherapy or antibiotics) and conditions (like Addison’s disease) can affect pigment production.

🌡️ Heat & inflammation – Not just sunlight—heat and even aggressive skincare treatments (like over-exfoliation) can worsen pigmentation.

🚫 Wrong skincare – Skipping SPF, products that irritate the skin, or not treating breakouts properly can all lead to long-term dark spots.

Pigmentation is complex—but with the proper care (and sunscreen!), it can be managed 🌤️🧴

What really causes acne? Let’s break it down 👇

Acne isn’t about “dirty skin” — it’s a complex skin condition triggered by multiple internal and external factors:

🦠 Bacteria – Cutibacterium acnes, which lives on our skin, but when pores are clogged, it multiplies and causes inflammation.

🔄 Hormonal changes – Hormones (especially androgens) can increase oil production, leading to clogged pores and breakouts. Common during puberty, periods, pregnancy, or from conditions like PCOS.

🚿 Wrong homecare – Harsh cleansers, over-exfoliating, or using comedogenic products can disrupt your skin barrier and worsen acne.

😰 Stress – Raises cortisol, stimulating oil production and triggering flare-ups.

💊 Some medications – Steroids, lithium, and some birth controls can cause or worsen acne.

🧬 Genetics – If your parents struggled with acne, you might too—your skin type and oil production are often inherited.

🍭🍦 Sugar & dairy – High glycemic foods and dairy may spike insulin and inflammation, potentially worsening breakouts for some people.

Understanding the root cause is the first step to clearer skin! 💆‍♀️✨
