Why is my face SO much whiter than the rest of my body?

Question

I got really tanned in the summer and a lot of it is still there but for some reason my face is soo white. It's even whiter than the spot where the sun never shines! The untanned parts of my body where my swimming suit covered is even darker. WHy does this happen ? i really hate it. I also have alot of achne and the white skin makes it more visible. If i get rid of my achne will my face be less white?

Answer 1

You should see a dermatologist first of all.
Try this, are you using a oil free skin cream?
do you clean your pillow cases? That's where all the bad oiles sponge and when you sleep your sweat reactivates all those oils back on your face.
Also, go tanning at a respectable place. I know it's not recommended but it does something to acne that drys it quicker and also a tan hides the red pimples.
go see a dermatoligist that knows what he's talking about, there are a lot of hack dermatologists out there.
goodluck.

Answer 2

it could be that you acne is getting the sun More than your face. your acne will go away when it is ready too . there isn't much you can do about it except see a skin specialist .

Answer 3

happens to me too.
that's just the way your skin tans.
you can't really do anything about it.
try to work on getting rid of your acne.
and maybe use a lotion with bronzer in it.
but make sure you don't look orange.
