Brighten Up – Your 3-Step Guide to Fading Dark Spots
The result of the overproduction of melanin (skin pigment), dark spots can affect anyone but most typically appear on those suffering from the signs of ageing or UV damage.
It’s not fully understood why dark spots develop, but if you’re affected by them, they can cause you to lose confidence and may prevent you from doing things that would once have been normal practice.
If you’re conscious of dark spots, then luxury French skincare brand Caudalie have just the solution and by following their 3-step routine, you can reduce the appearance of dark spots in no time.
Their Vinoperfect range is proven to help reduce the appearance of dark spots and even helps prevent further ones from developing. Inspired by Asian skincare routines, this light yet powerful range encourages a delicate application technique to care for skin. Says Caudalie’s founder Mathilde Thomas,
“I live in Asia. I confirm that Korean girls have the most beautiful skin: smooth, firm, moisturized, plumped and flawless with no dark spots. Their secret – the essence that they tap in with the fingers after the toner and before the serum – the heart of their beauty routine.”
If you’re looking for even, toned and flawless skin, then all you need to do is follow this simple 3-step plan to a brand new you.
Step 1 – Concentrate
Caudalie’s Vinoperfect Concentrated Brightening Essence is the first step to flawless. This lightweight, refined formula is both gentle and effective, leaving skin feeling smoothed, plumped and illuminated.
With organic grape water to moisturise and soothe, white peony to boost radiance and glycolic acid to exfoliate, the fluid formula penetrates the skin almost instantaneously, preparing it for the active anti-dark spot ingredients present in the Vinoperfect Radiance Serum.
Apply a few drops of the essence onto your fingertips or a cotton pad and tap gently into the face and neck. This gentle application technique encourages a more radiant and youthful appearance.
