How to Visibly Reduce Dark Spots & Uneven Tone
1. Start with Gentle Exfoliation to Renew Skin
Every even-tone routine begins with a clean, smooth canvas. Gentle cleansing and exfoliation remove surface cells that can make discoloration more noticeable and help brightening treatments work better.
Quick Tip: Exfoliate every day to help skin feel smoother and more radiant.
2. Apply a Targeted Dark Spot Serum
After cleansing, apply your brightening serum to target existing dark spots and help prevent new ones from forming. This step works to visibly even tone and enhance overall radiance.
Quick Tip: Use one pump morning and night on clean, dry skin — and don’t forget your neck and other areas of discoloration.
