Face sunscreen / anti-dark-spot protective cream
Description
Institut Esthederm Photo Regul Face Cream is a high-protection facial sunscreen and daily moisturiser specifically formulated for skin with pigmentation irregularities and dark spots. It protects against UVA and UVB rays (approx. SPF 25) and the wider spectrum of light while regulating the pigmentation process to reduce the contrast between hyperpigmented areas and tanned skin. The cream helps prevent photo-ageing and the appearance of new dark spots, minimizes the risk of hyperpigmentation and promotes a smooth, even tan. Its light, comfortable texture makes it suitable as a daily face cream for the face, neck and décolleté during sun exposure.

Contraindications
Known allergy or hypersensitivity to any of the listed ingredients (including chemical UV filters, fragrances or preservatives).
Use with caution on very sensitive or reactive skin; consider a patch test before first use.
Not recommended for use on broken, irritated or diseased skin.
As with most sun products, infants and very young children require specialised high-protection sun care; follow paediatric sun protection advice and local guidelines.
Adverse Effects
Possible transient stinging, burning or redness, especially on sensitised or recently treated skin.
Potential for irritation or allergic reaction to UV filters, fragrance components or preservatives in susceptible individuals.
In rare cases, may trigger or worsen acne or comedones in very acne-prone skin due to occlusive components.
If persistent irritation, rash or redness occurs, discontinue use and consult a healthcare or skincare professional.
Storage Conditions
Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight and excessive heat.
Keep the container tightly closed when not in use to protect the formula from oxidation and contamination.
Do not expose to temperatures above approximately 25–30°C for prolonged periods (for example, do not leave in a hot car or direct sun).
Keep out of reach of children.
Use within the period-after-opening (PAO) indicated on the packaging and before the expiry date.
Duration
Intended for continuous daily use during periods of sun exposure; improvements in evenness of complexion and reduction in contrast of dark spots typically develop progressively over several weeks to months with consistent use.
Onset
Sun protection is immediate once the product is correctly applied and absorbed before exposure; visible improvements in evenness of skin tone, reduction in contrast of dark spots and more uniform tanning usually appear gradually with repeated daily use over time.
