I think my red marks are turning slightly brown. I am a sort of a light brown asian.

 

For those of you who has experience with fading your red acne marks, do they turn from red to brown during the fading process? Or is it due to the sun. If so i may need to change my sunscreen...

 

I am currently using baking soda + apple cidar vinegar and egg mask + lemon regimine.

Yes, I've noticed the same thing. Usually starts a noticeable red ---> transitions to lighter tone of red ---> starts turning brownish ---> and finally blends in with my skin color.

Could be the sun, but you're wearing sunscreen, so doubt it.

It's just your skin healing. Make sure the stuff you're using on your face isn't too irritating.

Brown is pigment and red is blood. You can't have red pigment. They are separate things.
