Pigment spots and exfoliation in winter

Pigment spots are caused by excessive melanin production. The cause is exposure to sunlight or hormonal changes. Winter is the ideal time to treat your skin and reduce pigmentation. The sun is weaker and there is no risk of skin irritation, as in summer.

Exfoliation as the key to more even and healthier skin

Exfoliation is the process of removing dead cells from the surface of the skin, which helps renew the skin and reduce the visibility of pigment spots. Exfoliation is especially important in winter, because cold weather and heating can dry out the skin, which can cause it to become rough and flaky. Regular exfoliation helps keep the skin smooth and improves the absorption of active ingredients from cosmetics.

Regular exfoliation can help you achieve a more even skin tone and support regeneration. You can exfoliate either mechanically using a scrub with fine abrasive particles, or chemically with AHA and BHA acids, which gently remove dead skin cells. While scrubs have a more pronounced effect during a single use, fruit acids are gentler, but with regular use you will achieve a longer-lasting effect. If you have sensitive skin, mechanical peeling may not suit you.
Include exfoliation even if you have oily or dry skin. Dry skin will get rid of dead cells so that hydration from subsequent care can penetrate deeper into the skin, and oily skin will help regulate sebum and keep the skin clean. If you have pimples due to clogged pores, exfoliation is a step that can alleviate or even eliminate your skin problems.

How to reduce pigmentation

We recommend our Glow Mask for cellular renewal with astaxanthin, which is the most powerful antioxidant in the world, 6000 times more effective than vitamin C and vitamin E. The mask contains alpha-hydroxy acids (lactic, glycolic, citric, malic and tartaric acids) and beta-hydroxy acids to unify and brighten the skin. Alpha and beta-hydroxy acids promote smoother, more youthful-looking skin by increasing the rate of cell renewal and reducing the appearance of enlarged pores. They contribute to increased hydration, increase collagen production and firm the skin.

We recommend alternating with the Tourmaline and Neroli peeling for best results. A mixture of papaya and fine beads of jojoba wax and tourmaline is an ultra-gentle way of peeling for fragile and sensitive skin. 100% natural jojoba beads gently glide over the skin, removing dead skin cells and other impurities without irritating or damaging it. Gentle massage promotes blood circulation, which improves the distribution of nutrients and overall skin tone. The result is a brighter and more beautiful complexion.

SPF to prevent pigmentation

Although sunlight is weaker in winter, UV rays can still damage the skin and cause pigmentation. Therefore, it is essential to use a cream with a sun protection factor (SPF) every day, even during the winter months. Using SPF cream protects the skin from UV radiation and helps prevent the appearance of new pigment spots and wrinkles. It acts as a prevention. You should apply it every day before you go outside.

A great product that will unify the skin and protect it from the sun is our BB and CC creams. They combine caring and decorative cosmetics. They cover imperfections, protect against UV rays, blue light, unify, hydrate and nourish the skin. They can be layered, look natural on the skin and allow it to breathe.
