It sounds like your skin may be experiencing hyperpigmentation, dryness, and texture irregularities, possibly due to factors like sun exposure, dehydration, or skin barrier damage. Here are some recommendations:

1. Drink plenty of water to improve skin hydration from within.
2. Use a hydrating, non-comedogenic moisturizer twice daily.
3. Apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen (SPF 30 or higher) daily to prevent further darkening.
4. Try a mild exfoliant (like lactic acid) once or twice a week to promote even skin texture.
Consider seeing a dermatologist for personalized treatment, which may include topical treatments or other therapies to even skin tone and improve texture.

These steps should help improve your skin's hydration, glow, and uniformity over time.
