Question

I've got this pigmentation on my face, mainly on my cheeks, that popped up after I had my daughter three years ago. I'm really curious and a bit worried about what it might be. Could it be related to my postpartum changes, or is there something else going on? What kind of treatment or steps should I take to manage or hopefully get rid of this pigmentation?

Question

I've been noticing this white powder under my nails whenever I scrape my scalp. It's not itchy, and I don't see flakes or dandruff. I shower daily, so I'm quite clean. The powder is a bit waxy. Is this just sebum, or could it be something unusual? Is this normal for scalp skin and only becomes visible after scraping?
