As we don’t often get a lot of warm sun in the UK, on the odd occasions when the sun does rear its head, it can be far too easy get a little over-excited and head outdoors without adequately protecting skin.

Although you have probably heard it time and time again, it really is vital that you apply sun block in order to guard your skin against the sun’s damaging rays. Failure to do so can have a number of negative effects- many of which can be very long-lasting.

One side effect of sun exposure which many people aren’t actually aware of is skin pigmentation. It’s thought that one key reason why many aren’t aware of the fact that skin pigmentation can be caused by the sun is because it can take years for effects to show.

Skin pigmentation which occurs as the result of excessive sun exposure can take years to develop- by which time, the tan which seemed so important all that time ago has long disappeared.

Luckily, dealing with skin discolouration doesn’t have to involve a trip to the cosmetic surgeon, as there are some great products available nowadays which can be used in the comfort of your own home. Dermalogica Extreme C is one such product.

In addition to helping to improve the look of discolouration and giving skin a new lease of life, Dermalogica Extreme C can also help to prevent any future damage. Extreme C works equally well when used on small or larger areas of the face and neck and can be used alone or with moisturiser.

Improve the look of skin discolouration with Dermalogica Extreme C- and stick to the fake tan in future!

Since the launch of Dermalogica Chroma White range of products, many of our customers have emailed us for advice on whether they should stop using the products they currently use and switch to the new range, either because they have uneven skin tone or pigmentation problems.

Looking after your skin can be very expensive, and with the multitude of skincare brands and products out there, it can also be very confusing. We strongly believe that if you are happy with the skincare regime you currently have, and the products perform as you would expect them to, that you do not change. That’s not to say that as your skin changes that you shouldn’t change some of your skincare products. You may want to address new concerns as they arise but the general advice would be: “If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it!”.

Getting back to the Chroma White products, if you want to address the skin tone or pigmentation problem, then we would recommend that you incorporate one of the targeted treatments to help deal with the problem such as Dermalogica C-12 Concentrate (30ml) or Dermalogica Extreme C (8g). These products should be patch tested first, using a sample of the product, and then incorporated into your daily routine one at a time. You should not change anything else at this point and then monitor your skin accordingly. If you receive any adverse reactions, or the changes you experience are undesirable, then you should discontinue use of the new product. By only incorporating one new product at a time you are able to identify those products which are beneficial and the products which are not, enabling you to make informed decisions in the future.

Dermalogica Extreme C is a unique powder-to-emulsion treatment which delivers a high concentration of Magnesium Ascorbyl Phosphate (MAP) combined with brightening agents and exfoliants to optimise skin clarity. It is designed for people with hyper-pigmentation or uneven skin tone and is part of the new Dermalogica Chroma White TRx range of skin
