L'Oréal Paris UK & Ireland Guide 17 days ago

Description

How do you actually correct stubborn dark spots, melasma, and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH)?

In this video, Dr Raj Arora (GP with a special interest in dermatology) breaks down the real science behind hyperpigmentation and why treating uneven skin tone is a skincare "marathon, not a sprint." You will discover how a consistent morning and evening routine can intercept excess melanin before it even marks the skin’s surface.

✨ Featured Innovation: L’Oréal Paris Revitalift Laser Melasyl Creamy Serum

This derm-grade formula features a powerful 14% complex of:

• Melasyl™: A multi-patented breakthrough molecule (the result of 18 years of R&I) designed to intercept excess melanin precursors before they become visible on the skin.

• Niacinamide: To visibly improve uneven skin tone and support the skin barrier.

• Vitamin CG: To boost overall skin brightness and radiance.

🛡 THE DOUBLE-ACTION CLINICAL ROUTINE FOR DARK SPOTS AND HYPERPIGMENTATION:

For maximum efficacy and to prevent dark spot recurrence, pair your corrective serum with daily UV defence:

1. CORRECT (AM & PM): Apply a few drops of Revitalift Laser Melasyl Creamy Serum to clean skin.

2. PROTECT (AM): Lock in hydration and defend against UV-induced melanin triggers with Revitalift Laser Triple Action Day Cream SPF 25.

*Studies show up to 90% better protection against visible dark spot recurrence when pigmentation correction is paired with daily SPF.

💡 Clinical testing has shown visible improvements in skin clarity can begin from as early as 7 days, with continued improvement over time.
