The Best Products for Hyperpigmented Skin

Hyperpigmentation can be frustrating. It seems every product on the market is trying to convince you that it’s the “miracle cure” but how many miracle cures can there be? (Answer: it’s #p50)

The first part of treating hyperpigmented skin is understanding the cause. Is your hyperpigmentation caused by acne? Or is it melasma or perhaps sun damage? FInding the cause is important because it determines what factors you need to minimize or control, in order to reduce and prevent the damage.

Skin is considered hyperpigmented when there are inconsistent melanin deposits scattered across the face and body, causing some parts to be darker than others. It’s often caused by hormonal fluctuations in the body, deep acne scarring and sun damage.

Women who are pregnant can often develop something that’s called a “pregnancy mask” or melasma. This discoloration is the result of hormonal influences in the body and can affect the face and arms. It is generally more prevalent in women with darker skin.

If you do have hyperpigmented skin, it’s crucial to remember to protect your skin against the elements – and that means using sunblock every single day, rain or shine. It’s also important to develop an effective skincare routine, with products that brighten your skin in a healthy and consistent way.

Here is the Biologique Recherche regimen for hyperpigmented skin:

  1. Cleanse: Lait VIP O2 is an “antipollution” cleanser that brightens and unifies the complexion, eliminates impurities and calms the epidermis.

  2. Toner: P50 PIGM400 is the newest formulation of the beloved P50. It enhances epidermal renewal and helps regulate melanin synthesis while respecting and protecting the skin. This toner lightens the skin, reduces the size of pigmentation marks and prevents them from appearing. It also inhibits melanin synthesis, improves the strength and quality of the epidermis. Use this toner for a unified and brightened complexion.

  3. Treatment: Serum PIGM 400 is a brightening, spot-correcting serum that illuminates the complexion and fights free radicals. It  reduces the appearance of existing dark spots and prevents the apparition of new spots.

  4. Moisturizer: Creme PIGM 400 is a concentrate of brightening, anti-age spot and protective ingredients.  Its multipolar formulation helps correct existing pigmentation imperfections and prevents new age spots from forming. The complexion becomes increasingly luminous and the skin appears more even. Best when paired with Serum PIGM 400.

  5. Masque: VIP 02 is an oxygenating and moisturizing "antipollution" treatment, that restores radiance to stressed, asphyxiated skin.  Its formula is rich in moisturizing botanical ingredients and contains the Specific Biologique Recherche Oxygenating Complex which stimulates epidermal regeneration and revitalizes the skin.  It is ideal to soothe sunburn and can be left in the refrigerator prior to use and applied in a thick layer to soothe and calm the skin. It is recommended for dull, tired and/or stressed skin.
