problem solver set [pigmentation spots] - prevent & brighten

Sun, UV and infrared rays stimulate the production of melanin in your skin's pigment-forming cells (melanocytes). To prevent hyperpigmentation, the right sun protection is therefore extremely important. Our protect & care sun fluid SPF 50 gives your skin perfect protection: a sunscreen (SPF 50) with strong UVA and UVB filters based on light oils for a silky-soft texture. Antioxidants from red algae – astaxanthin is considered the world's most powerful antioxidant – supply your skin with valuable vitamins and minerals, protecting your cells against inflammation and UV damage and reducing premature aging and wrinkles. Skin-identical ceramides additionally strengthen the natural skin barrier. Our intensive problem solver serum [pigmentflecken] fades pigment spots with regular use and prevents new ones from forming, thanks to niacinamide, resorcinol and acetyl glucosamine that counteract excessive melanin synthesis. Combined, both products work to prevent and brighten pigment and age spots.

_Niacinamide is a form of vitamin B3 and a true all-rounder in skin care. It normalizes the skin's sebum production, frees pores from sebum, helps to refine them, and simultaneously protects them from renewed clogging. Its anti-inflammatory properties not only protect against acne bacteria but also against free radicals and UV radiation, and it reduces redness. Furthermore, it strengthens the skin barrier and can lighten dark spots (post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation).

_Azelaic acid acts as a gentle exfoliant (keratolytic) and removes dead cells. The acid refines the skin's surface texture, can reduce post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, and acts as a powerful antioxidant against free radicals (e.g., UV rays, environmental toxins). In combination with niacinamide and tranexamic acid, its effect is enhanced.

_Tranexamic acid works against hyperpigmentation, refines acne marks and scars, and restores a fresh complexion to the facial skin. Additionally, the substance soothes the skin and supports it in restoring its natural protection.

_Dipotassium Glycyrrhizinate has anti-inflammatory effects. Its sebum-regulating properties inhibit the excessive production of skin lipids by the sebaceous glands. It soothes stressed skin, is self-emulsifying, and can stabilize emulsions, allowing the emulsifier content of the formulation to be reduced.

_Hyaluronic acid modified by alpha-linoleic acid is a highly effective anti-pigmentation agent. It breaks down melanin and has a skin-lightening effect.

_Glycyrrhetinic acid has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. The acid supports the skin in repairing DNA damaged by UV radiation. It is extracted from the roots of the Chinese licorice plant (Glycyrrhiza glabra).

_SH-Octapeptide-24, SH-Tripeptide-5, and SH-Nonapeptide-1 counteract hyperactive melanocytes, thereby regulating melanin synthesis and brightening pigment spots.

_Butylresorcinol interrupts melanin production in the skin by inhibiting the enzyme tyrosinase and the protein TRP-1, which are necessary for melanin synthesis. Additionally, peroxidase activity is reduced, making the ingredient even more effective. Subsequently, the production of black melanin - which gives pigment spots their intense coloration - is blocked. The result is a depigmentation of pigment spots.

_Acetyl Glucosamine depigmentizes dark spots and interrupts melanin production by inhibiting the enzyme tyrosinase and the protein TRP-1, which are necessary for melanin synthesis.

_Caprylic / Capric Triglyceride
Pure oil that forms the base of sun protection. The multi-chain fatty acids are highly compatible and non-comedogenic, meaning they do not lead to impurities.

_Isoamyl Laurate | Ester oil
cares for the skin and provides a silky skin feel. Additionally, it has an antibacterial effect and serves as a natural substitute for silicones.

_Squalane
light, skin-identical oil that preserves the skin's natural moisture. It provides a pleasantly soft skin feel without leaving a greasy film.

_Bis-Ethylhexyloxyphenol Methoxyphenyl Triazine
UVA and UVB filters that are not only UV-stable but also provide powerful UVA and UVB protection, stabilize other UV filters, and work synergistically with them for skin protection.

_Diethylamino Hydroxybenzoyl Hexyl Benzoate
potent UVA filter used in combination with UVB filters to ensure broadband protection.

_Butyl Methoxydibenzoylmethane (Avobenzone)
the first widely used filter that protects against the complete UVA spectrum.

_Ethylhexyl Triazone
efficient UVB filter.

_Vitis Vinifera Grape Seed Oil
Grape seed oil has a strong antioxidant and cell membrane-protecting effect. It is very well absorbed and promotes the skin's ability to absorb, especially fat-soluble vitamins.

_Helianthus Annuus Seed Oil
Sunflower oil with a high vitamin E content to strengthen the natural function of the skin barrier, for an even complexion, more elasticity, and to minimize wrinkles.

_Cetearyl Alcohol
a plant-based moisturizing co-emulsifier: an auxiliary ingredient used to combine and stabilize two immiscible liquids into a finely dispersed mixture, known as an emulsion.

_Oryzanol
naturally occurring in and extracted from rice germ and bran. It stimulates the sebaceous glands, strengthens the barrier, and also has a photoprotective effect.

_Haematococcus Pluvialis Extract
natural extract from the blood rain alga. This extract is deep red and contains a high proportion of astaxanthin.

_Magnolia Officinalis Bark Extract
Magnolia extract protects against UV radiation and has an antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effect on the skin – especially against acne germs.

_Ceramide NP
as a natural component of the skin barrier, it is responsible for the skin's protective function. It stimulates the skin's natural production of ceramides.

_Astaxanthin
Antioxidant that protects the skin from aging and the harmful effects of UV radiation. Acts as a free radical scavenger to protect our skin cells from oxidative stress.

_Tocopherol
particularly effective vitamin E, which provides long-lasting protection to the skin against aging, inflammation, and wrinkle formation.

_Tocotrienol
subunit of vitamin E, which provides long-lasting protection to the skin against aging, inflammation, wrinkle formation, and UV radiation. The combination of tocopherol and tocotrienol is particularly effective.

Distribute a few drops of the problem solver serum [pigmentation spots] punctually on the face morning and evening. Please apply the serum before applying other skincare or cosmetics and allow it to absorb for approximately 2 minutes.

Then, apply the protect & care sun fluid generously (0.5 - 1 pipette) evenly to the face & décolleté in the morning and allow it to absorb for a few minutes. Reapply after approximately 20 minutes in water or with excessive sweating, as only about 50% of the protection remains in these cases.

The preventative effect is immediate. For a visible brightening success, we recommend using the problem solver bundle [pigmentation spots] - prevent & brighten for at least 8–12 weeks.
