Hi & Welcome to HCM. There's nothing to worry about the discoloration of the facial hairs. It could be due to stress, hormonal imbalance, nutritional deficiencies of vitamins or minerals, or certain drugs. Consult a dermatologist for proper evaluation. You may need some allergen free dye to restore the normal color of your mustache beside correcting the underlying cause. Hope this will help.
