The Science of Hyperpigmentation
Dark spots occur when UV exposure or acne triggers excess melanin. While chemicals like hydroquinone work fast, they can irritate skin. Enter bearberry extract – nature’s gentle brightener.
Why Bearberry (Arctostaphylos Uva-Ursi)?
- Active compound: Arbutin inhibits tyrosinase (the enzyme that produces melanin).
- Study-backed: A 2014 Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology paper showed 30% improvement in pigmentation after 8 weeks.
HERONIC’s Night Cream combines bearberry with:
- Olive squalane: Prevents moisture loss that worsens dark spots.
- Rhodiola root: Reduces inflammation from acne scars.
3-Step Routine for Glowing Skin
- Cleanse with HERONIC’s Foam Cleanser (removes dirt that dulls skin).
- Apply Night Cream to damp skin for better absorption.
- Always use SPF during the day – UV rays undo brightening efforts!
