Phyto Botanical Gel
A botanical gel formulation to assist in the treatment of pigmentation, the evening of skin tone and skin irritation. This gel also has hydrating and anti-inflammatory properties. Skin lightening and depigmentation properties are achieved through the use of kojic acid, alpha-arbutin and uva-ursi. Kojic acid and Alpha Arbutin inhibit the production of tyrosine which is the enzyme responsible for the first step in melanin production. Uva Ursi helps to lighten pigmentation, including sun and age spots.
Retinol
Retinol helps to increase skin cell turnover, helping to shed off pigmented cells, when new skin cells are formed, they will be more evenly pigmented. Retinol also reduces the appearance of sun-induced dark spots by inhibiting the activity of tyrosine, an enzyme that stimulates melanin production in the skin.
Sunscreen
Sunscreen is hugely important in preventing hyperpigmentation. Your skin cells respond to UV light by producing more melanin as a self-protective mechanism. Wearing sunscreen daily helps to keep your skin cells protected and prevent the over production of melanin.
