What are dark spots?
Dark spots, also known as hyperpigmentation, occur when the skin produces excess melanin, the skin’s natural pigment. This can cause uneven pigment distribution, leading to dark patches. Common triggers include sun exposure, skin inflammation, hormonal changes, and aging.
How to get rid of dark spots
The colder months are the perfect time to treat your dark spots, as the sun’s harmful rays are less likely to interfere with the process. Our products provide a great opportunity to combat stubborn pigmentation.
Actively treat your dark spots
A powerful trio packed with unique active ingredients. Dark spots, hyperpigmentation, and other pigmentation changes occur when the skin overproduces melanin, the skin's natural pigment.
This often happens as the skin ages, but can also be triggered by hormonal changes, inflammation, or excessive sun exposure.
The ECOOKING Pigment Trio is designed to treat pigmentation by regulating and reducing melanin production, making active ingredients essential for these products.
Active ingredients are the components that make a cream effective on your skin. They can help to hydrate, protect, or treat skin concerns like acne and wrinkles. These ingredients penetrate deeper into the skin to make a noticeable difference. Their effectiveness depends on their concentration and your skin type, which is why it’s important to choose a cream that meets your skin’s needs.
Examples of key active ingredients:
Niacinamide
Also known as vitamin B3, niacinamide is one of the most popular active ingredients. It helps reduce enlarged pores, offers antioxidant properties, and reduces melanin production to target dark spots.
Rainbow algae extract
This extract promotes the breakdown of melanin in skin cells, making it an excellent partner to niacinamide.
While it may take some time to fully treat dark spots, in the meantime, you can use our makeup products to cover pigmentation when you’d prefer them to be less noticeable.
To cover dark spots, sun damage, or scars, use a matte foundation or a concealer with a yellow or orange undertone and high pigment concentration. The high pigment helps to mask the discolouration effectively.
Well-hydrated skin is the best base for makeup, so always start by dabbing a small amount of foundation or concealer on the area. Make sure to match the colour to the surrounding skin. Use a Foundation Brush or Concealer Brush, depending on the size of the area you want to cover. Finally, set the look with a light dusting of Mineral Powder.
