5 skin ingredients that brighten skin and reduce brown and red spots  

From endless days of unprotected fun in the sun, to a shift in our hormone levels, there are many reasons people develop unwanted pigmentation changes. The good news is there are plenty of amazing skin care ingredients that can help fade away the browns and reds, and brighten your skin while they perform their magic. Face, neck, hands.....any body area can benefit from these complexion clearing super heroes! 

KOJIC ACID

A byproduct of fermenting certain types of fungi, Kojic acid works by inhibiting tyrosinase enzymes (the first step in pigment production). It's also a great antioxidant to protect against environmental toxins.

AZELAIC ACID

An organic acid found in grains, like barley and rye. Azelaic acid helps suppress overactive melanin production in the skin. It's also anti-inflammatory which makes it a great option for women experiencing Melasma. It's also safe during pregnancy, which is a big plus! Visibly reduces both browns and reds in the skin.

ARBUTIN / ALPHA ARBUTIN

Considered to be a natural form of hydroquinone, a skin bleaching chemical...and it's very effective. Usually derived from blueberries, bearberry or pear tree leaves. 

VITAMIN C

Another ingredient that blocks melanin production by inhibiting tyrosinase. It's also a potent antioxidant and effective skin brightening agent.

NIACINAMIDE

A form of vitamin B3 involved in cell metabolism. It helps brighten the skin and reduce acne flare ups, which reduces the chance of scarring and red pigmentation forming. 

Looking for an effective product that incorporates all 5 of these amazing ingredients? You'll find them all in the Benir Pigment Correcting Serum, available at Glow Luxe. Use on it's own, or pair it with in clinic treatments for an even better result.
