Revolution Beauty London Skincare Dark Spot Corrector,30 ml (Pack of 1)

Product Information

One of the most common complexion gripes is dark spots (a.k.a. sun spots, age spots or hyperpigmentation), which can make skin appear uneven, less clear and dull. Dark spots can appear on your face as well as body areas such as hands and décolletage as a result of sun exposure, genetics, hormones and inflammation, says Howard Murad, M.D., board-certified dermatologist and founder of Murad Skincare, and often become more prevalent with age. These include: Amodimethicone, Behenoxy Dimethicone, Bis-Aminopropyl Dimethicone, Cetearyl Methicone, Cetyl Dimethicone, Cyclomethicone, Cyclopentasiloxane, Dimethicone, Dimethicone Copolyol, Dimethiconol, Methicone, Phenyl Trimethicone, Phenyl Trimethicone, Stearoxy Dimethicone, Stearyl Dimethicone, Trimethylsilylamodimethicone. Niacinamide (in Revolution Skincare Dark Spot Corrector)– also known as vitamin B3. Studied to help brighten skin aka reduce dark spots.

It also means that it’s worth investing in a good remover to get the best ultimate results (and not waste your time…)

There are many different dark spot removers on the market, so it’s important to choose one that will offer you the best results. When it comes to marketing jargon, words matter. Be sure to look for products that say they brighten dark spots or even the skin tone. This means that the formula will contain ingredients to reduce the amount of melanin in the dark spots.

For anyone who is really on a budget, this is the only product you need, with visible lightening of hyperpigmentation patches over a matter of weeks. Aka experience lines my friend. Be loud and proud about them, and also know it’s A-OK to age gracefully with fine line reversing skincare. It is not a contradiction – why wouldn’t you look after yourself eh. Skincare which helps anti-age or age protect your skin is doing one of 2 things; Pityrosporum Folliculitis/Malassezia folliculitis or simply known as Fungal Acne is a persistent acne-like condition that commonly responds poorly to traditional acne-treating methods. Unlike most cases of Acne where bacteria is the culprit, Fungi is the culprit of Fungal Acne (Hence the name!). There are certain classes & groups of ingredients that have been shown to promote and feed the growth of the Fungal Acne, Fungi such as fatty acids, oils, esters, polysorbates and fermented ingredients. For more information regarding Fungal Acne, please visit Simple Skincare Science (f.c) - #3 of our Recommend Skincare Resources for an amazing comprehensive guide! There are some Revolution Skincare products I wouldn’t recommend you use. If you were ever in doubt whether sponsored content tells you the real deal – here is proof. Some of Revolution Skincare formulas miss the mark in my skincare formulators eyes. That’s because of simple ‘faux-pas’ like using a lot of alcohol in their revolution quinoa night peel. How can you tell? Alcohol denat. is the first name after water on the ingredients list. It’s a no from me. All of the formulas I’m recommending you here are free from these FP’s and therefore have best super potential to do awesome things for your skin. Revolution Skincare Review

Warnings

CICA aka centella asiatica– which naturally contains 3 super soothers known as asiaticoside, asiatic acid, madecassic acid – it’s a star of ayurvedic medicine, which can be super controversial – mostly because ayurvedic medicine can be along the same lines as ‘old wives tales’. But guess what, sometimes old wives tales turn out to be 100% truth, we just didn’t yet know the science reasons for why they work. Centella is one of those herbs with truth. It’s super soothing, healing plus collagen boosting (anti-ageing) – and science now knows why. FURTHER READING: Vitamin C: What does Vitamin C do and which is the best Vitamin C serum for skin?

Glycine Soja Oil (found in Revolution Skincare Night Restore Oil)– contains natural actives called soy phytosterols – these guys can help repair a broken skin barrier. Matrixyl (a peptide) – love peptides for the first signs of ageing as they’re especially sensitive to skin and skin similar – these guys boost and protect collagen health. Matrixyl has been specifically studied as being fantastic for helping prevent and reverse crows feet aka the experience of having smized through life. Salicylic acid– exfoliating active which is especially dissolvable in oil aka can get deep into your pores – where acne is born. Disclaimer, if you have very sensitive skin this dark spot remover can cause irritation and cause breakouts so it’s worth introducing to your routine gradually. The Professional Grade IPL Dark Spot Concentrated Serum is great at lightening sun spots, age spots, and any dark patches on your skin in a matter of weeks thanks to it being formulated with 10% L-ascorbic acid, lactic acid, kojic acid, and arbutin.

Drug Interactions

However, before you decide on which dark spot remover best suits you and your face, we’re going to stress (again) how important it is to use SPF. Every day. Even in winter. This becomes even more crucial if you use a dark spot corrector that exfoliates the skin and makes it more sensitive to the sun. There’s some code deciphering at work here. And you my friend can consider me your code decipher-er 😉 There’s a whole load more fun here. While The Ordinary are ‘clinical’ Revolution Skincare are like what would happen if you crossed a doctor with a TopShop stylist. This means some Revolution Skincare formulas are not for everyone – for example, some Revolution Skincare products use small amounts of fragrance and essential oils, plus colourants. The Ordinary skincare do not. They are 0% here. Exciting, exciting, exciting! Revolution Skincare – it’s the NEW addition to the budget skincare which works family. Because spoiler alert – most skincare actives are pretty, crazy cheap. In fact – it’s the bottle and label printing which is usually THE expensive bit (!) There has been some healthy controversy surrounding them due to a few studies finding paraben presence in breast tumours and breast tissue. However, the majority of the scientific community have deemed these findings non-conclusive due to the limitations of these studies.
