Combat Skin Discoloration and Achieve an Even Skin Tone

“Now that my tan is fading, my skin tone is so uneven! I have dark spots and blotchiness. I hate it, what can I do?”

This is why many people love having a tan. Tanned skin hides skin imperfections, giving a youthful, even-toned complexion. Unfortunately, however, as tans fade we see the consequences of having tanned skin. Sun damages our cellular DNA, leading to a loss of collagen and elasticity.

Sun exposure also promotes the production of tyrosinase, an enzyme which causes our skin to (among other things) produce those ugly age spots and blotches that appear as our tans fade. Finally, sun exposure causes oxidation to occur, one of the main causes of skin cancer. Luckily, however, we live in an age where sophisticated skincare products exist that help us to combat this common complaint.

Proper cleansing is, as always, the necessary first step. On a daily basis, using a facial cleanser that gently removes dirt and environmental grime plus dead skin cells is a must. That being said, it is also important to ensure that you are not over-stripping your skin by cleansing with harsh chemical ingredients.

Proper exfoliation is something that I frequently discuss with customers, partially because so few people do it! Exfoliating without irritating the skin is absolutely crucial, because it removes the dead skin and enables your treatment products, such as serums, creams and the like, to actually penetrate the skin and give you the benefits you are looking for.

Treatment is The Most Important Step

High end antioxidants provide brightening and skin-tone evening effects and specific anti-pigmentation and skin discoloration products that include ingredients such as kojic acid, lactic acid, licorice root extract and glabradine help gently remove spots while preventing new ones from coming out.

Starting your program by having a professional facial treatment by one of our licensed skincare professionals will provide even greater benefits. Finally, a full-spectrum sunscreen must be used on a daily basis to prevent damage from re-occurring.

In the meantime, hide your skin imperfections by using our advanced formula HydraRadiance Mineral Foundation with SPF 15. More than just makeup, it is also a skin care treatment!
