Hyperpigmentation, also known as skin discoloration, can make your complexion look uneven and spotty. But how does it form exactly? Discoloration happens when the skin has an increased activity of tyrosinase, a chemical compound that controls the production of melanin (skin pigment). Overproduction of melanin causes those dreaded dark spots like sunspots, melasma, age spots, brown patches, and even acne scars to appear on your skin. Your daily sun exposure is one of the major culprits. And factors like aging, inflammation from acne and other skin conditions, hormonal changes, and radical exposure also contribute to excess melanin and, ultimately, hyperpigmentation. To combat these common skin concerns, slathering on sunscreen daily and incorporating a pigmentation corrector are two beneficial steps to a clear, blemish-complexion. Dark spot correctors that have strong formulas and contain brightening actives can sometimes leave the skin feeling irritated, itchy, or inflamed. When addressing hyperpigmentation, you want to use active ingredients that have soothing properties and a variety of functions like niacinamide. What sets niacinamide apart from other potent dark spot removal treatments is its ability to fade discoloration while calming and strengthening the skins barrier. Niacinamide is just as powerful as vitamin C when it comes to reducing melanin and treating dark spots, but with little to no skin irritation. The Dark Spot Correcting Glow Serum harnesses the brightening ability of activated niacinamide to brighten dull and uneven skin tone, visibly fading dark spots without irritation. Niacinamide, along with a blend of plant-based, non-irritating ingredients, penetrates deeply to soothe the inflammation that is triggering melanocytes, the skin pigment-producing cells. This reduces their activity and, in turn, prevents and diminishes the appearance of dark spots or hyperpigmentation. Whether you have dry, oily or sensitive skin, you can never go wrong with Dark Spot Correcting Glow Serum! While the activated niacinamide keeps dark spots under control by inhibiting the pigment, moisture-retaining squalane and soothing calendula extract keep skin barrier protected, nourished, and balanced. This makes this dark spot serum suitable for all skin types. With consistent use, our dark spot correcting serum helps fade stubborn acne marks, sun damage, and other pigmentation concerns without causing dryness and skin irritation. This all-around, skin-brightening powerhouse inhibits overproduction of melanin without damaging your skin barrier. The activated niacinamide in this spot remover serum helps even out the skin and smooth out rough, bumpy texture, all while strengthening the skins moisture barrier. Calendula is known for its soothing properties. Our product is enriched with calendula extract that calms the skin and prevents inflammation and radical damage. This ingredient also helps reduce redness, itchiness, and other skin irritations. The Dark Spot Correcting Glow Serum uses plant-derived squalane to replenish moisture into the skin and increase hydration. This keeps the skin smooth, supple, and radiant. Squalane locks moisture in, rehydrates and soothes sun-damaged skin, and provides skin softening benefits. It also contains anti-inflammatory properties that can help with acne-prone, sensitive, or problematic skin.
