Hyperpigmentation – cause of an uneven skin tone

Your skincare upgrade with the new Pigment Control Booster

Hyperpigmentation issues, such as age spots, freckles, melasma, or post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH), are common skin problems caused by an overproduction of melanin. These often large, dark spots lead to an uneven skin tone. Our Pigment Control Booster, with its unique formulation of innovative ingredients, offers the perfect solution for even and radiant skin. The main active ingredients specifically target dark spots, while additional ingredients soothe and regenerate the skin. Furthermore, the booster provides antioxidant and skin-tightening properties. In contrast to conventional ingredients like retinol or vitamin C, which can often cause irritation or dryness in sensitive skin or during the acclimatization phase, the Pigment Control Booster is a gentle yet effective alternative. Due to its mild formulation, it is also safe to use during pregnancy and breastfeeding and can be easily integrated into your morning or evening skincare routine. With several synergistic mechanisms targeting both the reduction and prevention of pigment spots, hydration, and skin regeneration, the Pigment Control Booster gives your skin a new glow.

Brightening & cell renewal ingredients in your skincare routine

To reduce hyperpigmentation, brightening and cell-renewing ingredients such as hexylresorcinol, alpha-hydroxy acids, vitamin C, retinol, kojic acid, and azelaic acid are particularly effective. With the targeted application of these ingredients in combination with consistent sun protection, you can visibly improve your skin’s appearance and achieve a more even and radiant complexion. However, a careful approach is key: choose products that suit your skin type and condition, and research which active ingredients can be effectively combined. Especially retinol and vitamin C may cause irritation in the beginning. It is therefore advisable to start with a low concentration and gradually increase the frequency of use. A patch test before using new products on the face also helps prevent potential irritation. In addition, protecting your skin from sun exposure is an essential step in any brightening skincare routine, as brightening and cell-renewing ingredients make the skin more sensitive to UV rays. Without this protection, new pigment spots may form or existing discoloration may worsen.

Review your skincare habits

One of the biggest factors promoting hyperpigmentation is inadequate sun protection. Make sure to apply sunscreen even on cloudy days and in winter, as UV rays can still affect the skin. While exfoliants can help remove dead skin cells and brighten the complexion, excessive use can lead to skin irritation. These irritations can stimulate melanin production and worsen hyperpigmentation. Also, be mindful of the ingredients in your products. Alcohol-based products, aggressive cleansers, or heavily scented lotions can irritate the skin and promote the development of pigment spots. However, products with brightening ingredients should be used regularly.
