Ideal for skin preconditioned with Retinol 0.3

SCIENCE & PROOF

Topical retinols have extensively been used by dermatologists to help combat and reverse the visual effects of aging, such as wrinkles, laxity, and discoloration. Retinols because they accelerate cell turnover, can also improve blemishes and the appearance of pores. The retinol molecule is highly-sensitive and vulnerable to breakdown if not properly protected. Retinol 0.5 employs an optimized delivery system and protective packaging to ensure stability and efficacy of pure retinol. This retinol night cream works with skin’s natural lipid structure to promote optimal absorption.

HOW TO USE

In the evening, apply a pea size amount to clean dry skin, avoiding the eye area. Allow product to absorb before applying other skincare products. Limit initial use to once or twice a week, gradually increasing frequency to every other night, then every night as tolerated. It is important to establish consistent skin tolerance before advancing to a higher concentration.

Retinol may increase photosensitivity. Always use a high-protection, broad spectrum sunscreen when using this product.

As a precaution, retinol cream products should not be used by pregnant women or women who intend to become pregnant in the near future. Though there are no reports of topical retinol having any negative effect on fetal development, always consult a physician.

Science behind it:

Dark spots, stubborn brown patches, melasma are common problems that almost everyone will face. Dark spots or stubborn brown spots/patches are areas of the skin with excess Melanin. Melanin is the pigment that gives our skin colour, but when the skin is inflammed, excess melanin is being produced in the skin, which emerges as darker coloured spots and makes the skin tone uneven. A complex, multi-step process takes place in the skin when we study how dark spots are formed:

Step 1: Inflammation Triggers – Sun/ UV exposure, acne, hormonal changes such as pregnancy are common triggers. They trigger inflammatory mediators, which activates the enzyme Tyrosinase in the skin’s lowest epidermal layers.

Step 2: Melanin Production – Tyrosinase enables Melanocytes in the skin to produce more Melanin. When the skin is inflammed, this produces excessive Melanin.

Step 3: Melanin Transfer – Excess melanin gets transferred through the layers of the skin over a few weeks.

Step 4: Emergence – Excess melanin emerges as dark spots or stubborn brown patches on the skin surface. These pigment deposits tend to be more difficult to be removed compared to other skin cells on the surface.

To address the 4 steps of pigmentation above, SkinCeuticals presents Discoloration Defense. This latest-generation dark spot corrector, using a combination of potent and proven anti-discoloration ingredients to address key types of skin discoloration. Each of the 4 active ingredients in this potent formulation targets a different step of the pigmentation cycle, thus correcting and preventing dark spots from its origin.
