Approach A: We suggest following lifestyle changes to even out your skin tone.

1. Drink lots of water: Water not only helps in cleansing your skin from the inside out, but also keeps skin wrinkles at bay. It keeps your skin well hydrated and makes your skin looks like plump and baby like.

(i) Drink more water and other fluids, at least 8 ounces of fluid a day.

(ii) Make water your primary drink, shunning sugary drinks, sodas and alcohol. Whereas alcohol robs moisture from your skin to make it looks matured, the sugar and soda causes oil build up and pimples.

(iii) You can add cucumber or lemon slices to your water, if you don’t like the taste of plain water. They not only add a refreshing taste to the water, but also have skin stimulating benefits.

1. Use Sunscreen during day time: The most common cause for an uneven skin tone is sun damaged skin. It not only causes wrinkles and has cancer risk, but can also leads to formation of freckles when you are outside during daylight hours. So wear sunscreen during daytime. If you like, you can wear a hat also.

(i) Although SPF15 is the minimum threshold for sun protection, to have a real protection for your skin from sun damage go for at least SPF 30.

(ii) Make a practice to apply sunscreen every day, even if it’s cloudy outside. 80% of the damaging sun rays can penetrate cloud covers, so you can get sun damaged skin even when it’s gray and rainy.

(iii) Ensure that the SPF you are using has both UVA and UVB protection. Whereas the UVA rays from the sun are responsible for skin wrinkles and age spots, the UVB rays cause burning of your skin.

(iv) Caution: Do not to use tanning beds and also avoid lying out in the sun for hours.

1. Avoid Junk Foods: Avoid and if not possible then at least limit consumption of junk foods and eat fresh fruits and vegetables instead. The chemicals, oils and sugar contained in the junk foods trigger your skin to produce more oil that can clogs your pores leading to uneven skin tone. Include in your diet fresh fruits and vegetables, especially blueberries and salmon, which are rich source of antioxidants and thus are very helpful in evening out your skin complexion.
2. Do exercises regularly: Exercises not only keep you healthy and slim, but also helps to produce new skin cells that contribute a lot in keeping your skin tone even and  young. You do not require doing heavy workouts to get even complexion skin. Just do as much which is enough to get your blood pumping for a few minutes daily.
