      Are there actually any over the counter products that work on the deeper levels of the skin past the epidermis?
      Over the course of like 10 years of not caring about sun damage, my face has turned a lot darker than the rest of my body.
      Strangely my nose and cheeks have remained the original colour but the surrounding area, especially the forehead, has developed deep pigmentation.
      I have tried many products, but it's not really reducing the deep pigmentation. It simply makes me look brighter under light.

    I have problems wirh hyperpigmentation - my skincare easily get irritated, I always get red patches where it became irritated, and the red patches become dark when they heal. I spent years trying to figure out what irritates me and battling the dark patches. In the beginning of 2021 I bought skincare products with short ingredient lists (like cosrx, iUNIK) and very few actives (before I thought that more actives meant better skin) and my skin finally healed and my dark patches disappeared, not to mention my skin isn't irritated. Now my routine is really simple - it only includes actives like vitamin C (not in L-AA form, as it is irritating, I much more prefer for example 3-O-Ethyl-L-ascorbic Acid or MAP), galactomyces ferment, CoQ10, niacinamide, vitamin E. I could mention a few more, but those are my "safe" favourites. For chemical peel I simply use enzyme peels, as acids like PHA, AHA and BHA are too much for my skin. Obviously I also use SPFs on daily basis.

    I’ve been using The Ordinary’s Granactive Retinoid 2%, Ascorbyl Glucoside 12%, and Alpha Arbutin for almost two months now, and the small age spot on my chest and the ones on my shoulders are slowly fading (I was diligent about SPF on my face and neck from my early 20s but forgot my chest, lol, and my shoulders always tanned first when I was a kid). I’m thinking of ordering their Ascorbic Acid & Alpha Arbutin combo serum, along with the Resveratrol for non-retinoid nights. I’m also trying to get in the habit of using the retinoid and C on the backs of my hands on alternate nights, as the age spots there seem to be fading, too, even with irregular use.
    It’s thanks to you I learned how to use the AHA/BHA peel on my face. I’d given up and was using up the bottle on my hands, but my skin can actually tolerate it for five minutes every week or two, My skin is looking really good, and it’s not costing an arm and a leg, which is awesome!

      @@palestar828 retinols are technically a type of retinoid, but usually people use the words to differentiate prescriptions (and adapalene) vs the other OTC stuff.
      You can use them together, but if they’re used at the same time (on top of each other) you’re kinda increasing the chance of irritation with pretty much no benefit. You could do alternating nights of retinols and retinoids, or use a photo stable one during the day and a different one at night.

    Great video :) although the spf isnt one for anyone who gets hyperpigmentation in the form of melasma as it has octinoxate.
    I’ve struggled for years with mine and it comes up in island shapes all over my face. I kept being recommended chemical spfs or chemical and physical mixed spfs. The causes a chemical reaction in the skin causing faster onset of melasma.
    Now since changing to a physical/mineral only spf with high zinc oxide and titanium oxide my melasma is nowhere near what it was.
    The minerals bounce the light off your face.
    It’s also good to get a tinted one since it contains iron oxides.

    I like this video so much I'm actually commenting about it! I use skinceuticals phloretin cf because of my hyperpigmentation and am starting to run low because I have this weird thought that I prefer to buy vitamin c in the winter and also keep the product in my fridge to maintain its stability from heat and light. I also use apostrophe and think I might actually save money if I just go for the custom combo, vit c and spf. But for now, I just need to use up what I have and go for that end goal. But honestly regarding vitamin c, I don't know if I can steer from skinceuticals because their products are clinically proven to work, even with their price tag. 🤔

    I suffer from Melasma and have for years due to hormone imbalances and changes brought on by PCOS. I had a horrific mask that darkened so bad back in 2020. It was to the point that I wouldn’t go anywhere unless I had layers of color correcting makeup and foundation on. I felt hideous. I started at my new Derm clinic and my Dr she was my god send and when I said something she looked at me and said so matter of fact “ You’re beautiful and I don’t think it’s that bad but I refuse to have you feeling insecure or unhappy! You work to hard to stress about your own skin. Lol Let’s fix this. How’s that sound?” I was so worried about cost and she said oh stop perks of being my MA. She got me on hydroquinone, turned me on to a much better sunscreen (Elta MD baby!) I was just using banana boat lmao after over hearing sunscreen would stop the darkening at a Dr. Appt. She recommended a few procedures and treatments that would help long term. I did have a few done. I had about 4-6 in office medical grade chemical peels, I can’t remember exactly, but they did wonders. I will warn, the peeling takes massive patience. As you do not want to peel or pull the skin that’s coming off. You have to allow it to slough off on its own, while just making sure to keep your skin extremely hydrated(it drove me crazy tbh! I had huge pieces of dead skin, looked like a snake shedding lmao! I wanted to pull it off so bad!) I also changed my whole skin care routine. Hyperpigmentation takes a lot of work. Yes Melasma is it’s own beast for sure! But once your skin changes color due to damage, hormones, or acne scarring it takes work to fade that color! I love that Cassandra is promoting having the proper skin care routine for hyperpigmentation. That being said be prepared that it may not work for a while, or at all. It may take a few tries with many fails to find what your skin will accept. Also you may need to take bigger steps or seek a dermatologist to assist in looking into alternative treatment options. Also FYI from your derm MA, Hydroquinone is wonderful when used correctly, due not over use it. Follow the docs orders, don’t buy off line and use on your own. Rebound pigmentation is 100% real. Also WEAR YOUR SUN SCREEN!! Every day. Especially if you have hyperpigmentation.
    Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk. 😁

My skin transformed into HEAVEN since i started using SPF! But it caused my eyes to be swollen…. I am really sad i cant use SPF…. Especially at my forehead! Please I need help.

    For skin types 4 5 and 6, do not use aha or glycolic acid.
    Use bha and pha instead. Lactic acid is good and tranexamic acid. And retinol. Or pick up a product called "Faded". Also sunscreen all day long and if using anything that emits blue light on your face.
    Best suncreen is Altruist brand spf 50. It has uva and uvb protection.
