The radiance makes the face fresh and allows the use of less decorative cosmetics. Let’s find out why the complexion becomes dull and uneven and what components to look for in the composition of the skincare product to eliminate blemishes.
Achieving a beautiful, natural glow isn’t easy. Especially when the tone of the face becomes yellowish and uneven, the pores expand, and in some areas small but already visible vessels and wrinkles appear.
We tend to blame genetics for everything. However, do not underestimate the external factors! And first of all, oxidative stress caused by the influence of ultraviolet rays.
- Oxidative stress — also known as the oxidation process – interferes with the normal functioning of skin cells and destroys their structure. The problem becomes especially pronounced if the SPF is neglected when the UV Index is high.
- It is worth fearing not only the sun, but also the influence of the environment as a whole. External contamination cause excessive sebum production and “support” the negative effect of UV rays.
- The tone is also irregular a consequence of age-related changes. Already after 25 years, the renewal of epidermal cells slows down and dead cells accumulate on the surface of the skin. This makes the tone dull and lays the “foundation” for the first wrinkles.

What active ingredients in cosmetics affect skin tone
Acids and retinol are invariable ingredients that help in skin renewal. However, in summer and spring, these active ingredients should be used with extreme caution due to increased photosensitivity.
It is particularly difficult to use such ingredients in the care of dry and fragile skin, and throughout the year. In their context, vitamin C (ascorbic acid) seems to be the best component for improving facial tone. It does not cause an overreaction to the sun and even protects against the effects of UV rays, and therefore is especially necessary in summer care.
