Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -To protect itself from the damaging effects of the sun, your skin increases its production of the brown pigment called melanin. The extra melanin makes your skin look darker or sun-tanned. Sometimes the sun causes an uneven increase in melanin production, which produces irregular coloring (pigmentation) of the skin.
