I've been noticing white spots appearing on my face, mostly during the summer months. I think it might be related to the dust and sweat. It's really frustrating, and I'm not sure how to get rid of them. Any advice on what I can do to clear these up?

I'm really concerned about my skin pigmentation. I've been using a skin shine cream for about a month now, and while it did make my skin look paler, once I stopped using it, I noticed the pigmentation came back. Is it safe to continue using this cream for a longer period? Or is there a better way to handle this so my skin doesn't keep reverting when I stop?
