pigmentationI am 29 years old and my skin looks dull. I hardly get any time for a beauty regimen and I have started to notice pigmentation around my eyes. What should I do to get rid of them? How can I manage my skin better?

Skin often looks dull when you don't take care of it and age factor and your lifestyle also plays a part in skin-related problems. You need to start using products which will help add the necessary glow back into your skin. As for your pigmentation under the eyes, skin specialist Dr Shefali Trasi Nerurkar says, 'If possible start using a medicated anti-pigmentation under-eye cream containing kojic acid, retinol, twice daily for 3-6 months. Also, mild chemical peeling can help you get rid of this pigmentation faster.'

It is best to see a skin specialist who can analyse your skin type and problems in detail and recommend products accordingly for your daily beauty routine. Mostly, it will consist of a face wash, moisturising sunscreen, day and night repair cream and serum.
