Lately, the area around my eyes seems to have gotten noticeably duller, so I am looking into cosmetics for managing blemishes.

Last weekend, I went to a cafe with an outdoor terrace with friends for the first time in a while. The weather was so nice that we took lots of photos and had a great time, but when I got home and was organizing my photo album, I noticed the area around my eyes looked particularly dull. I usually just cover it up with makeup, so I didn't really notice, but looking at it in natural light, I can definitely see blemishes appearing, so I'm wondering if I should get some skincare products for melasma. Honestly, I thought I was still okay, but I'm feeling a bit conflicted now, wondering if it's really time to start using functional products. Even when I search online, there are so many advertisements that it's really hard to tell which melasma products actually work. My skin is a bit sensitive, so I'm hesitant about using products with strong ingredients; are there any items that are gentle yet offer brightening effects? Do any of you happen to have a specific type of melasma care product that you've settled on using? I would be really grateful for your recommendations on whether products containing vitamins or vitamin derivatives would be better!
