My arms and face are noticeably darker than the rest of my body. what should i do to unify my skin color?

Sun protection.: You can wear clothing with UPF rating of 25 to 50 so that your arms don't tan darker. In regards to your face - wear a hat with a brim and always use your sunscreen. The difference in color will fade with time.
