If you live in a Tier 1 or Tier 2 city… your skin is getting pigmented even on days you don’t step out.” The culprit? Not just sun. Invisible pollution particles that enter your skin every single day.
How?
1. Pollution particles (PM2.5) are 20–30x smaller than pores
They settle deep inside the skin → trigger micro-inflammation → increase melanin production.
2. UV + Pollution = double pigmentation
Pollution weakens the barrier, making skin more sensitive to sunlight, even indoor light.
3. Dust + sweat = blocked pores
Daily commute creates a film on skin → leading to dullness → appears as early pigmentation.
4. Damage builds silently
Most people see pigmentation months later, without realising it started with everyday exposure.
How to Protect?
Look for ingredients that fight both pollution-triggered inflammation & melanin production:
