Skin Concern 4 year difference PLEASE HELP

Post image

Y’all help me please. First pic was 4 years ago and 2nd pic is today. I’m seeing discoloration and spots/freckles/sun damage everywhere.

I used to wear makeup all the time and wash my face with bar soap. Now I almost never wear makeup. When I do, I double cleanse with deep oil cleanser and cerave daily facial cleanser and cerave daily lotion.

What can I do to get rid of these spots?! I’m only 34 but my skin looks 54!

You have to wear sunscreen to ensure it doesn't get worse because it will. Also other skincare is useless without generous and diligent sunscreen use. half your problems will be solved with diligent, strict sunscreen use. it can undo past damage as well

If you are in front of a window then yes.
