Like most people, it takes me a bit to adjust to the clock rolling back. I get all depressed and feel sluggish. I also see a change in my skin as it becomes dryer and seems very dull. This year instead of just dealing I decided to try out a skin care system from Dermalogica called PowerBright TRX. The PowerBright TRX line is made specifically for people who are looking to brighten their skin. Let me just clarify when I say brighten I do not by any means mean to lighten one skin. These products will not change the color of your skin. We got? Good! Now, as I was saying the PowerBright TRX line is made of up of there leave on treatments that work in conjunction with each other to help prevent and treat hyperpigmentation. These products are a result of several years of research on melanin biosynthesis and skin brightening by the skin health experts at Dermalogica and The International Dermal Institute.
Hyperpigmentation happens and there is really no sure proof way to avoid it. What’s great about the PowerBright TRX systems is that it combats hyperpigmentation brought on my sun damage, hormones, inflammation, and even acne scars. There are three steps in the PowerBright TRX system the Pure Light SPF50 Moisturizer, The C-12 Pure Bright Serum, and the Pure Night Overnight Nourishing Treatment Cream. While the names may seem a bit intimidating application is simple and easy. You can use these products in conjunction with your current Dermalogica skin care routine or you can use them with other products. The most important part here is that you use all three together.
I’ve been using these products for about a month now and my routine is pretty simple. At night after washing my face I apply the Pure Night Overnight Treatment Cream and in the morning before putting on my makeup I apply the Pure Life SPF50 Moisturizer followed by the C-12 Bright Serum. I have noticed that the Moisturizer does have a medicinal smell but it’s not enough to stop me from using the products. After 30 days of use I’ve noticed that my skin does appear to be a bit brighter and clearer. Older acne scars have faded and overall my skin doesn’t look as if it’s still in shock from the weather change. I was a bit concerned as to how this product would work on my skin disorder (a Mongolian spot) which is a result of hyperpigmentaton of the skin but I’ve seen no change in that particular area which I expected. It’s important to note that after using these products I did not experience any breakouts, inflammation, redness or swelling. It was like going through my normal routine without a hitch.
I’ve always liked Dermalogica products and I still consider myself a fan after using the PowerBright TRX treatment. If you’re looking for a product that will bright your skin and slowly reduce the appearance of hyperpigmentation this is the product for you. While, the full size bottles can be a little pricey Dermalogica has made it easy for consumers and has a created a travel size Power Bright TRX Kit containing each of the three products for only $38!
Have you tried other skin brightening products? If so which ones and how as your experience?
