derma e Skin Lighten: Natural Fade and Age Spot Creme - A ReviewNatural Skin LighteningThe Primary Purpose of the Skin Lighten Product"Skin lighten is a naturally powerful blend of vitamins and herbs designed to visibly fade age, liver and dark spots on all parts of the body." derma e Neither the packaging nor the website mention words like cholasma, melasma or hyper-pigmentation in regard to this product (at least any I could find). However, several reviewers on their site, on amazon and other selling sites do mention improvement for these issues. There are also several positive reviews from cancer survivors on how it benefited their skin after chemotherapy. Review: A Snapshot of Skin LightenPurpose: Yes, this product did achieve its purpose for me. Skin Lighten is a natural fade and age spot cream. "This therapeutic herbal treatment contains ingredients shown to lighten the complexion, fade age and liver spots and even out skin tone." Price: $24.99 for 2 oz. at derma.com. Although I wish this was closer to $19.00 it is well worth the price. Note, this product is available between the prices of $16.26 - $27.99 at various online stores, the lowest being $16.26 at Walgreens.com (as of July 2014). Absorption: Glides on easily and absorbs nicely. No sticky residue. Blends well with daily and evening moisturizers. Did not interfere with foundation. Ingredients: All natural and includes a variety of clinically proven skin lighteners. !00% vegan. (scroll down for ingredient glossary and studies) Internet Response: Positive. I scanned and researched a variety of reviews and product selling sites, a significant amount of the reviews for Skin Lighten were positive and above average. Most consumers ranked the product between 4.5 - 5 stars. Many new users reported seeing results within the first 2-3 weeks of use, I certainly did (see before and after picture below). The majority of consumers said they would continue buying the product and would recommend it to a friend. Note: I did find a nice handful of cancer survivors stating this product was useful in removing, "the mask of chemo". Cons: I personally did not identify a con for this product. However, it would be nice if this was infused with a broad spectrum SPF. I will definitely buy this product again. derma e, Skin Lighten - Before and After: 2 WeeksA note about the photos and my skin regimen.I took these photos myself and they are of my own skin (I wish I had a better camera). These pictures are not enhanced, they are simply cropped and aligned to show the same area. My skin was freshly washed for the photos and I was not wearing any skin products or foundation at the time of the photos. Important: Skin Lighten is not the only product I am using in my current regimen, this would not be realistic. I have recently started aggressively targeting my melasma with natural treatments and over the counter products. However, I strongly feel Skin Lighten has played a significant role in evening out my complexion as I use it a minimum of twice a day. I have sincere confidence in the clinically proven ingredients in this product and I cannot wait to update the photos with my results. derma e products are 100%vegan and cruelty freederma e products are: derma e Skin Lighten: Natural Fade and Age Spot CremeThe Primary Skin-Lightening Ingredients
Ingredients in derma e's Skin Lighten CremeNote: I have highlighted the primary lightening ingredients in bold print Water (Aqua), Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride, Stearic Acid, Cetyl Alcohol, Stearyl Alcohol, Glycyrrhiza Glabra (Licorice) Root Extract, Silybum Marianum (Milk Thistle) Extract, Zinc Oxide, Alpha-Arbutin, Ascorbyl Palmitate (C-Ester), Glyceryl Stearate and Peg-100 Stearate, Tocopheryl Acetate (Vitamin E), Retinyl Palmitate (Vitamin A), Panax Ginseng Root Extract, Dimethicone, Phenoxyethanol, Ethylhexylglycerin, Potassium Sorbate. Ingredient list source: dermae.com (the ingredient list above is equivalent to the ingredients listed on the current package - 2014) How does Skin Lighten work? A Closer Look at the IngredientsDescriptions and supporting studies for each of the skin lightening ingredients in Skin Lighten. Licorice: Inhibits Melanin ProductionTopical licorice is a skin lightener and has been used to treat atopic dermatitis. Licorice is a perennial plant with purple flowers. The licorice plant also produces a fruit in the form of a pod with seeds. Most of the world's supply of licorice comes from Southern Europe and parts of Asia. Key Point: Licorice inhibits melanogenesis, the production of melanin. Melanin creates the pigment in our skin. Excessive melanin accumulation can be caused by sun exposure, hormones, an inbalance of the endocrine system, and medications. Bhushan P., et al. "Licorice: Glycyrrhiza glabra Linn. Used for Dermatitis." Bioactive Dietary Factors and Plant Extracts in Dermatology. Humana Press, 2013. 433-438. Results: Glycyrrhiza glabra, found to be effective for the treatment of atopic dermatitis and associated signs. Glycyrrhizin and glycyrrhizic acid have a significant inhibitory effect on melanogenisis. Ivosevic-Zaper, Julijana, et al. "Topically applied glycyrrhizic acid causes hair removal in rats." Pharmaceutical biology 0 (2014): 1-4. Results: After 3 d, 20–30% of the treated areas were free of hairs. After treatment for 6–12 d, 90–95% of the hairs were gone. Findings suggest glycyrrhizic acid as an interesting molecule for treating hypertrichosis in humans. Alpha-Arbutin: Inhibits TyrosinaseKey Point: Human melanocytes exposed to arbutin showed decreased tyrosinase activity and melanin content. Also showing positive results in inhibiting melanoma.
