What is Pigmentation?

What is Pigmentation?

Pigmentation occurs when your skin produces too much melanin (pigment). This overproduction is caused by melanocytes — pigment-producing cells in the deeper layers of your skin — going into overdrive. The result? Age spots, sunspots, freckles, melasma, and hyperpigmentation.

What Causes Pigmentation?
✨ Sun exposure
✨ Hormonal changes (e.g., contraceptive pill)
✨ Ageing
✨ Genetics (freckles are inherited!)

Pigmentation often worsens without care, especially under the summer sun.

🌿 Pro Tip: The Graces Brightening Lotion helps improve pigmentation and prevents melanin overproduction, but sunscreen is your ultimate ally! 🌞

Just one unprotected day in the sun can undo months of progress. Protect your skin daily with a pure, eco-conscious sunscreen and keep your glow intact!
