Cosmetics for managing blemishes and freckles discovered under the light one day

Hello! Have you ever been startled by looking in the mirror under the bathroom lights? Yesterday, I went on a staycation with a friend and looked at my bare face under the hotel lights, and I noticed some dark spots that I hadn't noticed before on my cheekbones. I hadn't noticed them before, but under the strong light, I was secretly concerned. I felt like it was time to start taking care of my skin, so I urgently looked for a skincare product for freckles. Honestly, I'm only in my mid-20s, so I thought I'd wait until later to use whitening products. But once I started noticing them, I couldn't stop looking in the mirror. Are there any freckle-control products you've settled on like me after struggling with the sudden appearance of freckles? There are so many products on the market, it's hard to choose, but I'd love to see a product with gentle ingredients that brightens your complexion with consistent use! If you know of such a product, please recommend it. Besides UV protection, I'm curious to know how you all take care of freckles. Sharing even the most basic tips would be incredibly helpful!
