Tan and dark patches that won’t even out
Darker knees, elbows, a tan line that never leaves. It builds up slowly. A daily wash helps, slowly too.
The problem · Tan · Dark patches
Why it happens
- Sun, friction and old marks make skin produce extra pigment in patches.
- Knees, elbows, underarms and inner thighs get it most. It builds up slowly, so it fades slowly too.
Hero active · Kojic Acid
Evens tone, wash after wash
- Kojic acid helps dark patches look lighter with regular use.
- Pair it with sunscreen, or the sun undoes the work.
