For MBBS MD and DNB candidates....
Mongolian spots (MS) are congenital birthmarks seen most commonly over the lumbosacral  area. 
They are bluish-green to black in color and oval to irregular in shape and are non-blanching hyperpigmented patches .
The blue color  is secondary to the Tyndall effect, a phenomenon where light is scattered by particles of matter in its path. 
Dermal pigmentation appears gray, grayish-blue or grayish black because these colors have a shorter wavelength and are reflected to the skin surface. 
 Colors with a longer wavelength, such as yellow, orange or red, are not reflected and continue into the deeper parts of the skin.
