After-sun skin melanin deposition

Performance: Many people will find that after sun exposure, not only is the overall skin tone one shade darker, but the original pigmentation also becomes obvious, or new spots and patches of darkness appear on the originally fair face. The pigmentation will not only cause the imperfection of skin tone, but also make people's age feel up several years, and once the pigmentation is formed, the difficulty to eradicate it is much harder than to brighten the overall skin tone. Countermeasure: In solving the problem of pigmentation, we need to focus on the strengths of the right remedy to accelerate the metabolism, which is also a good way to remove pigmentation. Ingredients such as fruit acid and lactic acid, which are very fast and significant in accelerating skin regeneration, can be used more frequently to disintegrate the deposited melanin faster and more effectively without triggering sensitivity and in the stable stage of skin after sun exposure.

For fine lines that have penetrated below the stratum corneum, the first step to alleviate and prevent more serious conditions is to address the skin's antioxidant problem. UV exposure causes the skin to produce large amounts of free radicals, accelerating cellular oxidation. Products containing antioxidant ingredients such as vitamin C and derivatives can effectively block the production of free radicals and have a whitening effect at the same time. Repairing skin cells damaged by the sun and free radicals, and restoring firmness and elasticity through beauty supplementation with collagen and peptides are the second step in dealing with fine lines after sun exposure, allowing the skin to rejuvenate and regain its vitality.

Countermeasures: In the face of sun sensitivity problems, the first step should be to calm the skin and physically relieve the redness and heat, and at this time pay attention to never wash your face with hot or warm water. Many after-sun repair products incorporate cooling and calming ingredients to bring a cool feeling to the skin; if there are no special after-sun repair products, you can put your daily skin care products into the refrigerator to chill before using them, which also has a similar effect. It is also important at this time to prevent inflammation and further irritation brought on by sensitivity.
