With skin-whitening products being discontinued, is the beauty industry actually beginning to address its issues with dark skin tones?

Ultra-lightweight and biocompatible super serum to visibly address signs of aging

 

 

One of the known accelerators of skin aging is stress, which may come from inside or outside the body and can be short- term or long-term (i.e. ongoing exposure to city pollution). The constant assault skin faces from the environment along with lifestyle choices such as, lack of sleep, requires attention similar to that of UV-induced damage.

These stressors contribute to early signs of aging by weakening the skin barrier, making it vulnerable to free radical damage. They activate pro-inflammatory signals that trigger the local release of cortisol in skin, a stress molecule, causing skin to lose its resilience, suppleness, and radiance. Kiehl’s chemists have created a formula that strengthens the skin barrier to combat unavoidable daily stressors.
