PREPARE YOUR SKIN FOR THE SUMMER
Winter is coming to an end and therefore spring is just around the corner. Warm weather makes us want to do more: go out more, make the most of the sunny days, walk and generally be outdoors. However, we must still be careful, because this is when our skin is going to be much more exposed to the sun than before.
But what will happen if we don’t protect our skin correctly? Prolonged exposure to sunlight may cause skin blemishes. It is also very important that you know your skin type in order to minimise and prevent the effects of the sun, as explained in one of our posts.
Lots of people suffer from skin blemishes. Unfortunately, only those with sun blemishes try to correct them but, how about going one step further and trying to prevent them?
Now is the time to prevent sun spots
The cause of skin blemishes, as explained in previous posts, can be very difficult to determine and they may appear for various reasons. We should therefore prevent and prepare our skin for exposure to sunlight. The most common types of skin blemishes are ephelides or freckles, lentigines, melisma, melanosis through photosensitivity or hyperpigmentation. It should be pointed out that women are more prone to the appearance of blemishes, mainly as a result of hormonal changes.
At Martiderm we have three types of topical treatments that are very easy to use and which we recommend specifically for the prevention of blemishes. These three treatments form part of our DSP Depigmentation line, designed specifically to treat blemishes and consist of six products. All of them can be perfectly combined with one another for best results. Furthermore, if you are planning to have a child, you don’t have to worry, they are also suitable for pregnant women.
If you are interested in preventing and reducing skin blemishes, we will now tell you more about our star product: the DSP-ILLUMINATING SERUM, the «major preventive» treatment within the DSP line.
DSP–ILLUMINATING SERUM, our favourite depigmenting treatment
The DSP-ILLUMINATING SERUM is our star product in the DSP range and the most recommended product for the prevention of blemishes. Its components regulate melanin synthesis in melanocytes and inhibit tyrosinase activity. This, in less scientific terms, means that it prevents the appearance of all types of blemishes and also reduces existing blemishes.
Our serum can be applied in the morning or at night, before our normal treatment and any time of the year. In addition, the texture is light and easily-absorbed, which makes it perfect for any skin type: normal, dry, combination or oily.
Lastly, we should mention that it is a non-comedogenic product, suitable for sensitive skins and entirely of plant origin for improved tolerance.
DSP-COVER STICK SPF 50+, ideal for combining
Our DSP-COVER STICK SPF 50+ is the perfect complement for applying during the day, either in areas prone to the appearance of blemishes or on existing localised blemishes. You can use it whenever you like, it is suitable for men and women and for all skin types.
This product is recommended for treating blemishes on your face or on your body (back of the hand, scars or imperfections). Furthermore, its triple action is depigmenting, it has a sun protector (SPF 50+) and it conceals, which means it has a light makeup colour. This makes it the ideal everyday ally for women.
As we were saying, our DPS-COVER STICK SPF 50+ can be taken anywhere and applied at any time. It keeps the regulating action of melanin active and its factor 50+ solar filter makes it the complete package. If colour-correcting makeup or creams are used, it can be applied before or after to renew the solar protection and continue treating the blemish.
DSP–CREAM SPF 50+, our daily cream
Lastly, we are going to tell you about our DSP-CREAM SPF 50+. When the first blemishes appear or if we are using a depigmenting treatment, it is important to act in order to prevent the appearance of new blemishes, and to ensure existing ones don’t get any darker.
Therefore, if you need a daily treatment that includes a solar filter the DSP day cream contains active ingredients that regulate the synthesis and treat excess melanin, together with a 50+ solar protection index. This is a cream that can be used every day of the year and which should be applied after your normal beauty product.
If you would like to use any of our products, we recommend the following combination: DSP-ILLUMINATING SERUM + Photo-Age ampoule + sun protection or DSP-CREAM SPF 50+. Today we have introduced you to our DSP depigmenting range. Remember, it is extremely important to protect yourself from the sun and to know the consequences of not doing so.
