Summer is a season that causes serious problems for people who have freckles, because of the strong sun their pigmentation is increasing. The freckles are a result of the genetic predisposition of the skin to form small pigment spots. These small spots are the result of increased melanin accumulation in melanocyte pigment cells. Frequently, the freckles are passed on by inheritance. Almost always one of the parents has freckles. Typical of these are that they appear at the age of 7-8, they are tangibly increasing about 25-30 years, and after 40-45 years they usually disappear.

Sometimes they look very charming, but there are people for whom the freckles are a serious cosmetic defect and affect their self-esteem. Combating them is not easy and requires systematic skin care. Already in puberty, most of the girls start aggressive procedures to get rid of them, using all known means of modern cosmetics.

In rare cases, freckles are considered as natural charm and do not interfere with their owner’s self-esteem

What do we do in the summer when the sun pigments the piglets further?

The first thing is not to expose our face to direct sunlight and to use sunscreen creams. It is good to wear a hat, especially on the beach.

Exfoliating masks are a means of resurfacing the upper layer of the skin, and it is good to make similar masks twice a week. After the mask, use a nourishing cream rich in vitamin C. Taking this vitamin is very important for the skin because it increases resistance to ultraviolet rays.

You can make masks of different fresh fruits and vegetables with bleaching action. Cucumbers are very suitable

Bleaching of the skin

You can choose the right whitening cream for you to use throughout the summer. However, you should always carefully test the product because some of the whitening creams may make the skin around the freckles too light and the effect will be reversed. There are many different bleaching creams and you have to choose the most suitable for your skin.

Chemical peels – a good solution for freckles

Another solution for freckles is using chemical peels, but the result is usually after several procedures. There is also an opportunity to go through one procedure – deep peeling. However, the recovery period is longer and you need to keep it very carefully from the sun.

Still, if you look at the freckles as a charm rather than a flaw, you will feel much better. There are many famous actresses who watch them like this, try and you.
