Question

I'm curious about why my nose is darker than the rest of my face. It's oily and sometimes I get whiteheads. Can you help me figure out how to even out my skin tone?

The darker nose tone, oiliness, and whiteheads may be due to hyperpigmentation, excess sebum production, and clogged pores, respectively, and to achieve an even tone, try using a sunscreen, clay-based face masks, salicylic acid or glycolic acid products, and consider consulting a dermatologist for personalized advice.
