Dullness

Dullness is usually surface-level: a layer of dead skin, pollution and product residue that scatters light instead of reflecting it. Clear that layer and the glow underneath returns.

Why skin looks dull in Pakistan

Dust, humidity, city pollution and constant sun exposure all accelerate buildup. Skin that looked clear in a cooler, cleaner climate can look grey and tired here within weeks.

What brings the glow back

Exfoliation clears the buildup. Hydration plumps the surface so it reflects light evenly. Sunscreen stops the cycle repeating. All three matter — exfoliating alone on dehydrated skin will not give you glow.

How fast

Surface dullness improves within one to two weeks of regular exfoliation. Deeper unevenness from pigmentation takes considerably longer.
