There are many causes of hyperpigmentation, but ultimately one result: an overproduction of melanin (aka. the pigment which adds colour to skin).
In other words, hyperpigmentation results in patchy dark spots on the skin, which can be difficult to lift unless you have the right skin care products for pigmentation.
.The most common causes for pigmentation include acne, sun exposure and hormonal changes, all of which you know are fairly common.
So, we’ve put together a list of our go-to Skinstitut products to reduce pigmentation on the face.
From a top exfoliating scrub to our favourite Skinstitut sunscreen, these are the products for skin pigmentation we think deserve a spot in your routine.
1. A Refreshing Cleanser for Hyperpigmentation
What it is: Skinstitut L-Lactic Cleanser is a hydrating lactic acid cleanser that contains vitamin B & E to strengthen the skin, while providing gentle exfoliation.
Why it’s so good: A good cleanser for pigmentation will always contain some form of exfoliation.
The gentle AHA’s in this pigmentation cleanser work brilliantly to lift pigmentation and increase cell turnover.
It’s also a refreshing, decongesting gel formula that will help prevent further breakouts.
