How to Improve Hyperpigmentation

Hyperpigmentation is a common, usually harmless condition in which patches of skin become darker in color than the normal surrounding skin. This darkening occurs when an excess of melanin; the brown pigment that produces normal skin color, forms deposits in the skin.

Too much sun exposure is the leading cause of hyperpigmentation. Women tend to get hyperpigmentation more commonly than men due to the influence of hormones. In some cases this can take on a more aggressive hyperpigmentation called melasma.

An aggressive skincare regimen including proper sulfate-free cleansing, resurfacing, repairing serums and daily use of sunscreen is a great way to eliminate pigmentation.

Prevention is essential to guarding against future unwanted damage and seeing results.

A physical sunscreen (zinc oxide base) is vital to incorporating into your skincare routine daily to protect your skin from damaging UV rays.

Beauty Society has safe and aggressive regimens to ward off hyperpigmentation and to reduce the appearance of past damage.

Step 1 to Improve Hyperpigmentation

Here are my recommendations to improve hyperpigmentation. Starting with a cleanser. Being sure to cleanse your face morning and evening.

Beauty Society Facial Cleanser

Easy Going is an effective cleanser for sensitive, maturing, and most dry skin types – including those prone to rosacea. Dirt, impurities, and even the toughest eye makeup are effortlessly washed away with the help of natural cleansing agents derived from yucca, chickweed, and quillaja, while sea whip and green tea keep your skin cool and calm during the cleansing process.

Step 2 to improve hyperpigmentation

After cleansing your face, use Fake ID. Use this only in the AM and don’t use it if you did a microderm abrasion. You should only use one number 2 resurfacing product at a time.

Fake ID resurfacing

This skin resurfacing serum combines glycolic and lactic acids to make skin look younger, brighter, and healthier. Powerful ingredients kickstart the resurfacing process without the irritation and peeling found with many alpha-hydroxy acids (AHAs).

Fine lines and wrinkles appear less noticeable thanks to this formula’s ability to fight hyperpigmentation, sun damage, and enlarged pores. Differences are noticeable in as little as three days.

Step 3 to improve hyperpigmentation

Wear Making Shade Sunscreen every day. Can be worn with makeup.

Making Shade Sunscreen

Making Shade is an SPF 30 broad-spectrum sunscreen that protects skin from harmful UV rays without causing irritation. This gentle sunscreen is formulated with octinoxate to block UVB rays and micronized zinc oxide to block UVA rays.

Soothing aloe vera and green tea calm skin and prevent breakouts, while antioxidant vitamins E and C fight free-radical damage caused by sun exposure.

This versatile sunscreen can be worn alone or under makeup, and its gentle formula is suitable for children. Making Shade is a must-have, no matter your skincare routine. Protecting skin from sun damage is the most important step to preventing discoloration and signs of aging.

Step 5 to improve hyperpigmentation

At night after cleansing; use All Nighter Age Defying Night Resurfacer

For best results; after resurfacing follow up with Drama Free and/or Mission Accomplished. This can be done after your AM Fake ID or in the evening after All Nighter or BOTH!

Step 6 to improve hyperpigmentation

Weekly you will want to do a microderm abrasion to buff away those dead skin cells. Use Crystal Ball Microderm Abrasion Treatment. DO NOT use your FAKE ID or ALL NIGHTER this day! I like to use Drama Free afterwards for healing repair.

Crystal Ball is an at-home microdermabrasion treatment that buffs away dead skin cells and minimizes the appearance of acne scars, discoloration, and aging-related blemishes to leave skin brighter and healthier.

Safe for sensitive and breakout-prone skin, this formula utilizes gentle pumice crystals and plant-based compounds to improve skin tone and texture without irritation.

The volcanic microcrystals, chamomile, green tea extract, and exotic oils in this unique cream provide spa-quality microdermabrasion results at home.

Crystal Ball is an essential Step 2 Resurfacing product for individuals who want a brighter, healthier complexion without the in-spa price tag.

Step 7 to improving hyperpigmentation

Love thy Face moisturizer to restore your natural moisture barrier.

Love Thy Face harnesses the power of rosemary to rebuild lipid oils found deep in the skin, where the first signs of aging begin.

This miracle moisturizer increases lipids by up to 450%, restoring the natural moisture barrier that protects skin from sun, pollution, and free-radical damage that causes fine lines, wrinkles, and skin discoloration.

Soluble beta-glucans slow down antioxidant depletion that is particularly problematic for individuals with sensitive, dry, or chemically treated skin. Formulated with soothing compounds that fight redness and irritation, Love Thy Face is an anti-aging miracle designed for individuals with dry, sensitive, chemically treated, and maturing skin.

Do you need all of these products?

Certainly this seems like a lot of product recommendations; however, if it were easy enough to just put all the ingredients into one bottle; they certainly would. Each product is formulated to do the task it was targeted for.

If you want to just start with a couple; you most certainly can do that and add on as you see fit.
