Sebum or oil is secreted from scalp which naturally nourishes the hair and keeps it healthy. Only when the secretions become excessive, they clog the hair follicles, trap dust and cause hair loss.

I'm a Civil Engineer and I'm outside at worksites a lot, which means I'm always in the sun. I try to use umbrellas and scarves, but they don't seem to help much. The sun leaves me with a tan that's really bugging me, and I'm starting to see some wrinkles forming too. I usually don't have a lot of time for salon treatments, but I make sure to go for a cleanup once a month and apply a turmeric milk face pack on alternate days. My skin's a bit oily, but I don't get many pimplesmaybe because of the face pack. I'm really hoping for some advice on how to get back to a fairer complexion. Any suggestions?

Kozicare cream is advised.Side-effects include itching and hypersensitivity reactions
