Blemishes & even skin tone: our back-to-school solutions!

Nature has a way of doing things: to defend itself against UV rays, the skin has melanocytes. Producing the famous melanin that determines our colour skin tone, melanocytes can tend to get a little carried away, producing too many melanin pigments in an anarchic way in the event of strong exposure, and creating spots.

But beware of predispositions... Certain profiles will need to be extra vigilant from the start of the vacations, as taking certain medications (particularly the pill), hormonal changes or simply having dark or black skin, can increase the risk of dark spots appearing. 

So how can you reduce the appearance of spots this autumn? We're banking on the right skincare that makes all the difference to prevent and reduce spots! Here are 3 universal favorites to choose from according to your habits, and a more intensive solution for more established blemishes.

For more established spots, we opt for the "problem-solver" brand par excellence: Dermalogica. And when it comes to targeting pigmentation spots, we opt for an intensive routine worthy of a professional skincare product! 

• Step 1: Day or night, apply the PowerBright Dark Spot Anti-Spot Serum Dermalogica. Melasma (pregnancy mask), sun spots or residual marks from previous blemishes... This powerful serum acts on all types of spots to rapidly reduce their appearance, prevent their onset and reveal an even, luminous complexion. 

• Step 2 : To treat hyperpigmentation overnight, apply Powerbright Overnight Cream Soin de Nuit Anti-Taches Dermalogica. With its formula rich in niacinamide and vitamin C, it works deep down to reduce the appearance of pigmentation spots, regulate melanin production and optimize the skin's ability to recover, while restoring its luminosity.

• Step 3: 2 to 3 times a week, opt for an at-home peel with the Powerbright Dark Spot Peeling Anti-Taches Dermalogica. AHA, PHA, algae, tranexamic acid and niacinamide... This peel is the ideal cocktail to even out and lighten the complexion, bringing radiance to the skin while reducing the factors that trigger post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.

• Once or twice a week, swap your Good Genes Sunday Riley for the Daily Microfoliant Dermalogica. Thanks to the rice bran powder in its formulation, it reduces pigmentation spots while refining skin texture.

• We turn to technology: Thanks to its red and infrared LEDs, the Le Professionnel Anti-Aging LED Mask Nooance helps improve skin texture and increase collagen production, while helping to reduce blemishes and imperfections.

• Complete your routine with the We want... the ultimate radiance Atelier Nubio, capsules that deeply moisturize, activate skin radiance and prevent pigmentation spots.
