Hyperpigmentation is not just a common condition; it is also a problem that can be particularly stubborn to treat.

The spots are directly caused both by hyperactive melanocytes, the cells responsible for the production of melanin, and by an overly vigorous proliferation of the same melanocytes.

The causes? Inflammation (acne, psoriasis, burns, friction, and also some overly aggressive aesthetic treatments). Excessive and unprotected exposure to UV rays. Melasma caused by hormonal fluctuations, for example, during pregnancy, a thyroid dysfunction, contraceptive pill, and hormone replacement therapy. Alpha

Prevention It's the key.

The necessity to apply a sun protection daily is never emphasized enough.

But spots can also be fought with consistency and the right products.

Lakshmi has thought of it with the Skinglow Line, an excellent natural and non-aggressive routine for the treatment and prevention of spots thanks to the specific action of two patented active ingredients: Melavoid and B-Lightyl which, in synergy with Red Vine Extract, Vitamin E, Papaya, and Amyris, perform a marked antioxidant action and inhibit the excessive synthesis of melanin, the cause of spots.

"Another must-have is the latest generation UVA and UVB filters that constitute a highly effective filtering system."

SkinGlow Cream guarantees broad-spectrum UVA and UVB protection, preventing the formation of new spots, lightening hyperpigmented areas, giving the complexion a bright and even appearance, and positively affecting different types of spots by addressing the origins of their formation.

• UVA-UVB Sun Filters SPF 50 next-generation sun filters particularly well tolerated by the skin to ensure protection against UVA rays (responsible for photoaging) and UVB rays, which cause sunburn and erythema. Diethylamino hydroxybenzoyl hexyl benzoate: it is a photostable organic molecule that is highly compatible and offers protection only against UVA rays. It reduces the formation of free radicals, thus slowing down all photoinduced processes that lead to cellular aging.

• Ethylhexyl Triazone: is a UVB chemical filter with a high affinity for the skin's keratin and therefore has good water resistance properties.

• Tinosorb® A2B is an innovative organic aqueous dispersion of a microparticulate UV filter with broad-spectrum UVB and UVA coverage. A new generation of micronized UV filters approved for use in cosmetics under the new EU regulation on cosmetics. Tinosorb A2B protects the skin from UV wavelengths ranging from 290 to 340 nanometers, thus being the first of a new generation of UV filters that bridges the current gap between UVA and UVB, allowing for balanced protection across the entire spectrum of UV solar radiation with a lower filter concentration compared to conventional ingredients but with better and broader coverage.

• Tocopherol: Tocopherol is one of the main compounds of vitamin E. It helps the skin to stay hydrated and elastic. It improves microcirculation, thus increasing the oxygenation of the skin. Tocopherol is also very emollient, sebum-regulating, anti-inflammatory, and soothing. 

• Boerhaavia diffusa: commonly known as Punarnava in Sanskrit, is a plant that belongs to the family Nyctaginaceae. Punarnava contains several components, such as flavonoids, alkaloids, steroids, triterpenoids, lipids, lignins, carbohydrates, proteins. ​​and glycoproteins. However, in this case, MELAVOID is standardized on boeravinones. Boeravinones have been considered one of the most interesting metabolites of Boerhaavia diffusa, particularly from a therapeutic antioxidant perspective. This antioxidant activity complements the whitening action of MELAVOID, as it inhibits melanin synthesis. Furthermore, Punarnava has anti-inflammatory properties that may help reduce certain irregularities in skin pigmentation. MELAVOID acts on the initial mechanisms of pigmentation, reducing melanogenic activity and leading to a decrease in the intensity of skin spots. It provides a dual action, evening out skin tone and reducing various types of spots (tests show that it reduces the formation of the enzyme tyrosinase by 63%, consequently reducing melanogenesis. Additionally, it reduces tyrosinase activity by 55%, demonstrating its powerful depigmenting ability. It lightens hyperpigmented areas, giving the complexion a smooth and even appearance, and positively affects different types of spots. In conclusion, it allows for a radiant skin with a more uniform tone.  

• Carica papaya (Papaya) leaf extract:   the extract from Papaya leaves with a high content of vitamins A and C promotes skin health and offers a complementary and gentle exfoliation method suitable for all skin types. They promote cell turnover and help remove dead cells from the superficial stratum corneum.

• Vitis vinifera (Grape) leaf extract (*): Red Vine Extract; from the seeds of the red vine, from the skins of the berries, and from the leaves, a phytocomplex rich in flavonoids, anthocyanins, resveratrol, polyunsaturated fatty acids, and vitamins is extracted. It has a scavenger effect, removes toxins, and stops the release of free radicals.

• Amyris balsamifera bark oil: Essential oil that releases a scent similar to sandalwood, with decongestant properties at the circulatory and lymphatic level and relaxing properties at the nervous level.

• Himanthalia elongata extract: this brown algae produces many interesting biomarkers, such as polyphenols, and more specifically phlorotannins (oligomers of phloroglucinol). These particular molecules have been identified during screening for their ability to regain control over skin pigmentation. By selectively enriching the extract with these specific molecules, B-Lightyl was created. The daily topical application of B-Lightyl at 3% significantly reduces the hyperpigmentation of spots. B-Lightyl can be defined as the first universal "eraser" for dark spots, gentle and powerful, made possible through marine biotechnology. B‑Lightyl is a natural ingredient that addresses hyperpigmentation disorders in both a preventive and curative manner.

• Extract of Cananga Odorata: Oil extracted from Ylang Ylang flowers. It rebalances dry or oily skin. Additionally, the monoterpenes contained in Ylang Ylang make it a powerful purifier. They have a bactericidal and antifungal action. It is soothing and protective against skin infections and eczema. It also alleviates discomfort related to itching or negative skin reactions. Its fragrance has relaxing, calming, and sedative properties: it helps to regain tranquility and serenity.

• Damask Rose Oil is magical for its powerful, floral, enveloping scent and is also the ally of all skin types to prevent and combat the signs of aging. Rose oil, rich in vitamin E, beta-carotene, and fatty acids like omega 3 and 6, nourishes and deeply hydrates the skin. Ideal for sensitive skin, herbal products based on rose can calm and relieve it, repairing it. Their very rich composition also allows them to nourish dehydrated skin and provide relief to atopic skin. Healing, rose can also be used to comfort skin damaged by the sun, making it soft and smooth again.
