Skincare for Pigmentation

Pigmentation can be triggered by a variety of factors, including hormonal changes, prolonged exposure to the sun, inflammation due to acne or injuries, and beyond. This can lead to darkened skin patches on the affected area and make your skin appear darker than its actual tone.

Vitamin C is one of the most effective skincare ingredients for pigmentation and post-acne hyperpigmentation. It can increase the cellular turnover that further triggers collagen production. With consistent use, one can notice visible improvements with spots and hyperpigmentation.

Try 25% vitamin C-infused serum, Ultra C. It has 15% peptides and 2% ferulic acid combined to address hyperpigmentation and dullness in all skin types.

To fight all aspects of pigmentation, you need a potent blend of niacinamide, vitamin C, biomimetic peptides, and UV filters. Skin Bright is a good option with 2.5% vitamin C and 5% niacinamide to reduce pigment formation and aid sun damage.

Vitamin C can brighten the skin tone by triggering the collagen production in the skin, niacinamide can strengthen the skin barrier, helping to reduce pigment formation, vitamin A derivatives can gradually fade dark spots by promoting cell turnover, and tranexamic acid can prevent the formation of excess melanin.

Spending too much time under the sun can stimulate excessive melanin production in your skin, which makes dark spots even worse and pigmentation more noticeable. Use a daily SPF moisturiser like Skin Protect with SPF 35+, formulated with zinc oxide and 15% titanium dioxide. This is an illuminating moisturiser that creates a physical barrier to UV rays absorption without making your skin feel greasy.
