I get the occasional zits and they take me a couple of days or even less to get rid of; after all these years of dealing with zits, I have become accustomed to the routine of drying them out and treating them at the source. What I am not used to just yet is the dark spots that these zits leave behind.These dark spots are not as stubborn as the ones you get from premature aging but since I do not have to worry about aging skin just yet; they still bother me with their extended stay on my skin.
I decided to try this moisturizer from Shiseido after picking up a few of their products at the store. I do not have much experience with whitening products but after using this for 5 days, I am a convert. This moisturizer goes on easily and smoothly with a light, creamy texture that is absorbed quickly.
The next morning I woke up to really bright skin - bear in mind that whitening products can't literally whiten your skin; they can only brighten and even your skin tone to give you a healthy glow. I was quite surprised with the bright slate of my skin and after a few days of usage, the dark spots left behind by those zits began to fade and lighten. My skin looked healthier, radiant and softer.
This moisturizer works to also intensively hydrate your skin and by doing so, reducing fine lines and damage caused by environmental aggressions. With Super Bio-Hyaluronic Acid to lock in moisture and Spot Deacti-Complex to diminish the signs of uneven skin tone, this lightly scented moisturizer works for all skin type.
You can use this twice a day but I use this only at night before bed (because it doesn't have SPF). I know it's a tad costly but if you're in the market for a good brightening moisturizer, this is one to check out.
Get this for US$98 (1.7oz/50ml) at Sephora.
