I accidentally used some expired sunscreen yesterday and now my skin is paler. what should i do for it?

Nothing is required: I would not worry about it, expired sun screen is less effective but it appears to have protected you from the sun. It may have left a residue on your skin after a few showers you should be back to normal.
