I am getting pigmentation under my eyes and on my nose after visiting high-altitude places. Kindly help me.

Hi doctor,

I want to know about my skin type. My skin feels very dry after using facewash (lotus organic plus), but after some (generally after two to three hours) time, my skin becomes very oily (even if I do not apply any of the cream or sunscreen). It is the same condition in summers and winters. Now after using lotus face wash toner and skin whitening cream, my face color generally becomes dark. So kindly tell me what type of skin is mine. Is it dry or oily? My skin is of this type for the past 10 to 25 years. I am a 38-year-old male. My city has both climates in the extreme. Sun exposure is generally an office job only. I use lotus organic plus facewash, lotus herbals rose toner, lotus herbal skin whitening gel cream, and lotus herbal night cream. I use face wash in the morning and evening, then apply toner, then in day lotus herbal whitening gel cream, and in night herbal night cream. I have had pigmentation for the last two years only, on the nose and under-eye cheeks. In general, I would say I feel most comfortable skin if I do not apply any cream (if pigmentation would not be there). Kindly guide me for suitable face creams, face wash, and toners for my type of skin.

Hi doctor,

Thank you. I am taking two tablets of Limcee daily for the last four to five months. I have tight and sensitive skin. There was no pigmentation ever. I went to a very high-altitude place two years ago. I use to wear sunglasses always there. Since then, pigmentation started, just below the portion of sunglass (nose and under eyes). No, prolong exposure to the sun as mine is an office job, no history of photosensitivity. My job profile has six to seven hours of laptop usage. For this, I use sunglasses with UV protection and a blue coating. I was not having any skin problems ever. After being to the high altitude, it all started. Kindly give your opinion.
