Hi XXXXXXX
Thanks for writing to us.
A dull tired looking lifeless skin could be due to variety of causes like stress, improper skin care, lack of exercise, inadequate hydration and incorrect dietary habits.
Usually in such cases we advise skin care products like cleansers, moisturisers and sunscreens according to skin type, oral supplements, few dietary and life style modification. Also few clinic based procedures like mesotherapy,microdermabrasion or peels are suggested for better response
To help you out in a better way, I would like you to share with us

Hi XXXXXXX
Thanks for providing the details. I would appreciate if you could attach a pic of your face so that I can analyse the pigmentation around mouth and eyes and advise you accordingly. Severe allergies, atopic dermatitis, seborrheic dermatitis, dry skin too can present with such pigmentation. Hence I need a picture.

Detailed Answer:
Hi XXXXXXX
I have seen the attached pics. You may follow these suggestions
Use cetaphil cleanser twice in a day to wash face
In morning use a vitamin c cream like rejuglow C20 or ageban gel full face and follow it up with a sunscreen (with SPF atleast 30 and also having UVA protection) like shadowz/photostable/photoban sunscreen etc.
So in morning it should be cleanser, vitamin c cream and then sunscreen. If at all face remains dry, then use cetaphil moisturiser after using cleanser and then vitamin c cream and sunscreen.
In night wash face with cetaphil cleanser, apply moisturiser and then use kojic acid hydroquinone based cream like depiwhite cream full face.
Use depiwhite peel off mask three days in a week.
If possible take few sessions of vitamin c and hyaluronic acid based mesoglow therapy to reduce dryness and dullness over face. You may also take few sessions of mild peels for better response. As these are clinic based procedures, you need to consult a doctor near by
Hope this helped.
