Guuuuys, I used to have perfect skin up until this past fall. It got really bad but now all of my acne cleared up but unfortunately, left the dark marks behind. I need help in finding the best remedies and products to get rid of them!! Thanks so much 😘

Before anything, sunscreen with at least SPF 30! Mineral sunscreens work better when it comes to acne marks. SPF is vital when it comes to acne marks and skin tone, sun damages the skin significantly and purchasing anything else will be useless as the moment your skin gets some sun it may end up going even darker due to the sensitivity.
Exfoliate... I personally use AHAs which are targetted torwards sun marks and sun damage and Antioxidant serums. Vitamin c serums are great for acne marks... Sephora is giving oit Ole Henriksen Vitamin C serums for 100 points so I recommend picking up 3 or 4. For AHAs I have seen quite a few and some peels at Sephora but I personally use Paulas Choice.
Rosehip Oil and Manuka Honey (I get both at Whole foods) Have also helped me tons. Rosehip oil has wonderful antioxidant properties and does great for healing sun damage. For Manuka honey, if you are allergic to honey or anything similar do not use it.
I leave on Raw Manuka Honey for 15 to 20 minutes, under steam or humidity since honey is a humectant. To remove it I use beads (Jojoba beads) you can use any manual exfoliant of your choice.
Patch test any product before you apply it to your skin, and remember SPF is vital for even skin tone!
