Exactly What Does Skin Brightening Mean? • www.jbskincare.in
We all know the skincare “buzzwords” that are incorporated into skincare ads, labels, and reviews. Think adjectives like “moisturizing,” “enhancing,” or “glowing.” After all, we both know that slathering on a “brightening” night cream won’t make your face light up the room like a toddler’s night light, but do we know what it really means to brighten our skin? Brightening Skin Products led to exogenous ochronosis, a skin condition that some believe can still be caused by the use of skin brightening products with hydroquinone. If you don’t—you’re certainly not alone. And that’s what I’m here to help you out with today! • www.jbskincare.in
What Does It Really Mean When a Skincare Product is Brightening? As you may have realized from some of my previous blog posts, the beauty industry can be quick to hop on a trend—whether that be a hot new ingredient or a promised effect. The word “brightening” falls into a similar predicament, in a way. Because “brightening” can mean so many different things, many beauty brands, bloggers, etc. use the word to mean a multitude of things. Most commonly, brightening is used to mean lightening, fading, or, at its most extreme cases, bleaching. • www.jbskincare.in
Brightening is also used to describe products that may block the production of pigment and/or lift pigment out of the skin (think dark spots from the sun or acne scars). Brightening can also be used to describe products that help to increase cell turnover and therefore speed up the flaking away of damaged upper layers of the skin to reveal the beautiful baby-soft skin below (think of it as a great compliment to your exfoliator). Because of the variety of effects that the word “brightening” is used to encompass, the most effective way to figure out what a product really does is to take a gander at the ingredients list. • www.jbskincare.in
The Benefits of Brightening As I mentioned, one of the benefits of brightening can be reduction and/or complete erasure of dark spots from scarring, acne, sun exposure, etc. Depending on your skin type, you may be more prone to dark spots, and if that’s the case you’ll definitely benefit from brightening products or procedures. If you suffer from a skin condition such as melasma, brightening products should always be in your arsenal, not to mention your daily skincare routine. As an added bonus, most of the ingredients used in brightening products also do double-duty in that they provide moisture and antioxidants for your skin to drink up—and who among us couldn’t use some more of that? For this reason, many women love brightening products not for their ability to fix what many women see as skin “problems,” but also to give them that glowy look that we get after a tropical vacation (or simply after we’ve actually had a full night of sleep). • www.jbskincare.in
Brightening Ingredients To Watch Out For • Ingredients To Avoid Many brightening products incorporate hydroquinone, an ingredient that effectively bleaches the skin. While hydroquinone can be safe for lighter skin tones, it can cause adverse aesthetic effects on those of us with darker skin tones. This goes doubly if you plan on only applying the brightening product to certain spots on your face — you may end up looking like a leopard! There have also been general concerns about the safety of using hydroquinone on your skin, and the jury is still out on if using hydroquinone in your beauty routine can cause adverse effects down the road • www.jbskincare.in
Ingredients To Embrace Instead of taking your chances on products with hydroquinone, I recommend vitamin C products. Vitamin C is safer for your precious skin because its effects are more lightening and fading rather than bleaching. Plus, vitamin C is a natural antioxidant! Glycolic acid is another option for brightening, as it’s a great exfoliant (which means it’ll help to remove those damaged upper skin layers), and it naturally brightens the skin. If you have sensitive skin, you may want to search for a product with lactic acid, which is a good option for brightening that likely won’t upset even the most sensitive skin.
