WHY DO WE GET PIGMENTATION?
Before we dive into the best pigmentation creams for the face, it’s important to understand why pigmentation happens in the first place. It is caused by an overproduction of melanin, the pigment that gives our skin, hair, and eyes their colour. This can be triggered by:
Sun exposure: UV rays stimulate melanin production, which can lead to sun spots.
Hormonal changes: Conditions like melasma, common during pregnancy, can cause patches of pigmentation.
Ageing: As we age, our skin’s ability to regulate melanin can change, leading to dark spots.
Using a targeted cream for pigmentation is one of the most effective ways to even out your skin tone and fade dark spots over time.

TIPS FOR USING PIGMENTATION CREAMS EFFECTIVELY
Using the right pigmentation cream for the face is essential, but consistency and proper application are key to seeing results. Here are some tips to maximise the benefits of your brightening creams:
- Always use SPF during the day: Sun exposure can worsen pigmentation, so applying a cream with SPF (like our Advanced Brightening Day Cream with SPF20) is crucial.
- Be patient: It can take a few weeks to see noticeable results. Stick with your routine and give your pigmentation cream time to work. Our regimes are proven to deliver real, effective results with just 28 days of use.
- Pair day and night creams: Using a brightening day cream and night cream ensures round-the-clock support for your skin.
- Exfoliate regularly: Gentle exfoliation helps remove dead skin cells, allowing your pigmentation cream to penetrate more effectively. Be sure to cleanse before use with one of our multitasking facial washes designed to boost the performance of your pigmentation busting routine.
