I have long battled dark spots and hyperpigmentation—this is the science-backed skincare routine I swear by

The latest addition to the Anti-Pigment range, this cleanser has become a staple in my routine. Eucerin promises that Anti-Pigment Exfoliating Cleansing Gel offers a 98% spot reduction* and first visible results in one week** after adding the cleanser into your anti-pigment regime. It contains both lactic and glycolic acid to exfoliate skin by sloughing away dead skin cells, all while aiding stimulation of collagen and elastin production, boosting radiance without turning skin dry or irritated. My glow has been quite something recently, and I've been seeing fewer breakouts due to its effective cleansing abilities. Personally, due to the exfoliating nature of this cleanser, I've been using it every two or three evenings as my second cleanse, before applying my serums and creams.

I am somebody who knows a thing or two about the perils of dark circles—I have tried almost every eye cream out there in a bid to reduce the appearance of my stubborn under-eye shadows. This eye cream is, hands down, one of my favourites to use. For starters, it is hydrating and rich enough to deliver ample hydration, yet lightweight enough to not feel too thick or greasy under the eye. Plus, the metal applicator cools and depuffs upon application, making it a welcome treat come morning. Then, we get to the formula itself—while Thiamidol and oligopeptides work to reduce hyperpigmentation and stimulate collagen production, light-reflecting pigments create a brighter, more awakened eye area. If ever you're feeling tired, this is the eye cream you want on hand.

Truthfully, finding serums that effectively target hyperpigmentation isn't easy, but what's even harder is finding such a serum that slots well into the rest of your beauty routine—i.e. a treatment serum that doesn't leave skin looking shining or feeling greasy and one that sits well under make-up without pilling. This super-lightweight serum doesn't just contain Thiamidol to target dark spots and hyaluronic acid to deliver plumping moisture, but it also leans on crystal technology to deliver a smooth, radiant, refined complexion that makes for a perfect base for make-up. For that reason, this is the serum I turn to after my morning cleanse.

While Anti-Pigment Skin Perfecting Serum is a great morning serum, consider this your all-round, does-it-all hero. Using a mono-chamber design, Anti-Pigment Dual Serum delivers both Thiamidol and hyaluronic acid in a seriously lightweight veil of emulsion, meaning it can be used at any time of the day—and, trust me, it's a luxurious joy to use. If the beautiful texture and bouncy finish of your skin isn't enough, you can also expect to see visible results after just two weeks of use.

UV damage is one of the biggest causes of dark spots and hyperpigmentation, which makes daily SPF protection really important. This day cream is lightweight, fast-absorbing and feels beautifully silky on the skin. While Thiamidol gets to work at reducing the appearance of existing dark spots (and doing its bit at preventing new ones from cropping up), SPF30 offers another element of protection against sun-induced hyperpigmentation.

Every time I slather this night cream over my face, I'm reminded of just how great it is and what a joy it is to use. Yes, it contains Thiamidol to do its dark-spot-reducing thing, but it also contains dexpanthenol, an ingredient that aids and supports overnight skin regeneration, meaning skin just looks healthier and more radiant come morning. Beyond that, as somebody who like a sensorial aspect to my skincare routine, the satin finish, silky texture and non-greasy nature of this cream makes it a true feat.

This product is a little firecracker, and I am yet to find anything else like it. If, like me, you experience post-breakout hyperpigmentation, it might just be for you. It is like a pure hit of Thiamidol, design to be applied precisely and directly onto the effected area for a supercharged treatment. If I have a particularly stubborn post-breakout mark, you best believe I'm carrying this with me at all times for regular touch-ups through the day.

While the Anti-Pigment Day Cream does contain SPF30, this is the product I reach for on sunnier days. It is considered to be one of the most impressive facial sunscreens out there. The texture, for starters, is lightweight but rich in hydration, meaning it makes for a great moisturiser alternative. Beyond that, the formula itself is really quite something. Sure, it delivers broad-spectrum SPF50+ protection and Thiamidol to treat and prevent sun-induced hyperpigmention, but it also contains licochalcone A, an ingredient that helps to neutralise UV-related free-radicals and fend off damage, while glycyrrhetinic acid supports the skin's own DNA repair mechanism. In short, this is probably the most hardworking and skin-loving sunscreen you will ever meet.
