Hi,
To prevent your face from darkening and reduce acne spots, follow these recommendations
1) use a Glycolic acid based face wash
2) use sunscreen of SPF 50 daily
3) take vitamin c supplement daily
4) use Kojic acid, liquorice ad arbutin based cream in morning and Glycolic acid based cream in night.
Follow these for few weeks to notice positive results.
Hope that answers your query. Take care
