It’s formulated for melanin-rich skin

Growing up, I had clear, blemish-free skin. But when I went off of birth control after 10-plus years, my hormones went haywire. I was having more and more breakouts, which left my forehead, cheeks, and jawline riddled with dark spots. While my hormones have started to balance out, minimizing new spots, I’ve tried everything under the sun to bring back my once-even complexion. But as a perk of being a beauty writer, I have access to top skincare products. The recent game-changer in my routine has been Brownkind’s Vitamin C Serum for its effectiveness in addressing hyperpigmentation while brightening and smoothing fine lines.

Brownkind’s Vitamin C Serum stimulates collagen production and reduces the appearance of dark spots and hyperpigmentation while promoting an even tone and a luminous glow. The nutrient-rich formula also softens and firms the skin, leaving the skin looking youthful. It’s also designed with melanin-rich skin in mind.

The serum feels lightweight, has a gel-like consistency, and absorbs quickly. It slotted effortlessly into my skincare routine. I apply it right after cleansing and toning, letting it sink in before moving on to my moisturizer. I immediately noticed upon the first use how bright my skin was and that the hollow areas looked fuller. My hyperpigmentation is more even, including spots that have been on my cheeks and forehead.

After a month of consistent use, I was getting constant compliments on my skin from my boyfriend and family on how clear and glowy my face looked. And the creased areas around my mouth and forehead were much smoother, especially under makeup. It’s been gentle enough to use daily without any irritation, which is huge for my sensitive, acne-prone skin. The serum plays well with the other products in my skincare and makeup routine, and doesn’t clog my pores. Editor’s note: I always apply SPF to prevent skin sensitivity when outside.
