Skin darkening is mostly caused by the sun. You can prevent your skin from getting darker by avoiding the sun at its peak hours, using shade if you must be out when the sun is high, etc.
Below are ways you can avoid the sun to prevent your skin from darkening:
Stay out of the sun when it’s strongest
The sun is always strongest between the hours of 10 a.m. and 4 p.m. When possible, you should stay indoors during this time.
Seek shade
When you do have to be outside in the sun, staying in the shade is one of the best ways to protect your skin from getting darker. Finding shade is especially important on high-index days, and when the sun is at its strongest in the middle of the day.
Make your own shade
It’s always a good idea to take a regular umbrella out with you because it can protect you against both sun and rain.
Be careful, however, that you are still wearing sunscreen and protective clothing under the umbrella, because UV will still reflect off a number of surfaces. The larger the umbrella the better, because a bigger umbrella will protect you from more reflected UV.
