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.
