Since I started Forage & Soothe, my dear mother has been asking for something to remove age spots. I've started to get age spots on my hands (maybe you've seen them in videos) but I'm quite fond of these little freckles. But for my Mom's sake, and for the future, when age freckles spread to my face, there's our Spotless Serum.
Uva Ursi (Arctylostaphylos uva ursi), aka Bearberry is a perennial native to British Columbia. I collect the leaves and stems and prepare a powder extract. It contains arbutin, a natural compound that inhibits the production of melanin, the pigment responsible for dark spots on the skin.
Niacinamide is naturally derived from nicotinic acid which is found in brewer's yeast and many cereals. Niacinamide addresses this concern by breaking down existing melanin and preventing further deposits. Its dual-action approach makes it a great solution for combating dark spots and visible signs of environmental damage.
Shiitake mushrooms contain kojic acid, which is a natural skin-lightening agent that can help reduce the appearance of dark spots and hyperpigmentation.
Witch hazel helps to heal complexion issues like sunburn, sun spots, dark marks and melasma.
Licorice Root Extract brightens the appearance of your dark spots and discoloration by preventing melanin production at its source. Licorice Root can also break up patches of melanin you already have, helping them fade.
