How to get my original skin color back?

I struggled with tanning after a beach trip. What worked for me: aloe vera gel at night, lots of hydration, and avoiding harsh bleaching creams. Your skin tone usually returns with time if you protect it from further damage.

Skin darkening usually comes from sun exposure. Start with sunscreen every day (SPF 30+), even indoors. Gentle exfoliation and moisturizers with Vitamin C or niacinamide help brighten naturally. Don’t expect overnight results—consistent care over weeks is key.
