I suffer with hyperpigmentation that became very apparent to me about 6years ago and has been getting worst until about 4 years ago when I was introduced to sunscreen. The darkness slowed down with sunscreen and anti aging routine. Thanks to you, I definitely have a much greater understanding of how to use my skincare products. I will be purchasing you sunglasses too. Thank you so much for everything you shared about inflammation, sunscreens and skincare routines. I will check back with you with my 30 day results!

I also purchased the colorscience sunscreen and block because I was using a chemical block. The progress so far, much more even looking skin. You can still see the pigmentation however it's easier to correct now. I think that given more time (at least a year) I just may not need professional treatment. Oh, I just love the shades

I love activities that involves the sun - paddle boarding, hiking, boating, and unfortunately I didn’t start using sunscreen until i hit 30. Now I’m religious with my sunscreen but battle with melasma & hyperpigmentation.

I was restless looking for alternatives to get rid of this virus in my system. not until I stumbled upon a video on UA-cam about Dr. Aloha’s Herbal Medication and how effective they are. I reached out to him through his email: Alohaherbalhome@gmail.com and followed the instructions given on how to use the Herbal Medication, To my greatest surprise, it worked perfectly and today makes it a month and two weeks of testing Negative to HSV 2 after making use of his Organic Herbal Medication. It’s so amazing regaining my health back to normal and ridding my body of Herpes.

    I was so excited to try this routine! I went out to purchase everything except the cleanser and the Vit C. Let me just say my face was very happy until I applied the Azelaic Acid on top of the Granactive Retinoid with 5%, my face almost set fire!! I had to wash it off immediately! I went to the ordinary site, and it says "not" to apply the Granactive Retinoid with any of their direct acids and Azelaic was one of them! I will try again without it!! That was my worst experience. I do see there is another video that seems to be an updated version that does not include the Granactive Retinoid, wish I would have seen it first. Hopefully this helps someone else just joining.

    -Cerve SA cleanser
    -rose water/glycerin instead of micellar water.
    - 15% niacinamide + zinc by revolution

However , at the same educating me, and more women out there who is suffering from hyperpigmentation and very desperate of which product to use and the right way to use products correctly . Since there are a lot of products in the market which targets this skin issue on "HYPERPIGMINTATION" which is more common in Asians and all over places which the humidity is very high and a place where temperature reaches 50 degrees like in the Middle East specifically. Lastly, I wanna thank you from the bottom of my heart and i wish you more power and all the best in journey as a HYPERMINTATION DERMATOLOGY EXPERT please continue impowering women.
