Understanding Hyperpigmentation
and How Levels 2 Skin
Products Can Help
Hyperpigmentation is a common skin condition characterized by the appearance of dark patches or spots on the skin. It occurs when the skin produces excess melanin, the pigment responsible for skin color. There are several types of hyperpigmentation, including age spots, melasma, and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.
Luminous Defense SPF 50 Sunscreen
The Luminous Defense Sunscreen effectively combats hyperpigmentation through its broad-spectrum SPF 50 protection, which prevents UV-induced melanin production. This protection is crucial, as UV exposure is the main cause of sun-induced skin damage and hyperpigmentation. Niacinamide in the formula helps to even skin tone and reduce the appearance of dark spots. The powerful antioxidant blend, including Vitamin E (tocopherol), boosts natural antioxidant activity and protects against free radical damage that can worsen discoloration. Bakuchiol, a natural alternative to retinol, reduces the appearance of dark spots through its pigment-reducing, antioxidant, and retinol-like effects. Regular use of this sunscreen can help fade existing hyperpigmentation and prevent new dark spots from forming.
The Level 2 Skin products, specifically the Ageless Set or the Bakuchiol + Peptide moisturizer alone, can help address hyperpigmentation concerns.
Here's How:
Hydrating Peptide Cleanser
The cleanser contains ingredients like aloe vera, witch hazel, rosehip oil and lavender, which can help soothe and calm the skin. It also includes a peptide complex that can help promote skin renewal and improve overall skin health.
Bakuchiol + Peptide Moisturizer
The star ingredient in the moisturizer is bakuchiol, a plant-derived alternative to retinol. Bakuchiol has been shown to help reduce the appearance of hyperpigmentation and promote a more even skin tone. Additionally, the moisturizer contains antioxidants like vitamin E and green tea extract, which can help protect the skin from further damage caused by environmental stressors. Ingredients like hyaluronic acid and shea butter, which can help hydrate and nourish the skin help to promote a healthier overall appearance.

For best results, use the cleanser and moisturizer as part of your daily skincare routine. Cleanse your face in the morning and evening, followed by the application of the moisturizer. Be sure to use our pure mineral Luminous Defense sunscreen during the day, as UV exposure can worsen hyperpigmentation.
Consistency is key when addressing hyperpigmentation, as it can take several weeks or months to see noticeable improvements. Additionally, it’s important to be patient and manage your expectations, as some types of hyperpigmentation may be more stubborn than others.
