Have you ever noticed how great it feels to compliment someone? Watching their face light up when they realize you’re complimenting their hair, their smile or their outfit feels amazing. But imagine how much better it feels to compliment a friend or family member? It’s absolutely incredible! If you’re not into declarations of love, consider getting them a thoughtful gift (or creating one!) or doing something else to show them how much you love them! Not only will it make them feel good and strengthen your bond, but it’ll also make you feel amazing and help build your familial relationships and friendships.

We absolutely love Vitamin C and believe it deserves a skincare hero award! The quickest way to recognize Vitamin C on an ingredients list is as ascorbic acid or other derivates (look out for “ascorbyl”). It is a well-researched ingredient and offers amazing skin benefits that have been documented. In terms of its importance, it ranks right after sunscreen in preventing premature ageing.⁠

Vitamin C keeps your skin looking youthful because it neutralizes free radicals by stabilizing and rendering them nontoxic to the skin cells, it is anti-inflammatory, and it boosts collagen production.⁠

Vitamin B3⁠
We treasure Vitamin B3, or more specifically, niacinamide. It is an active form of vitamin B3 and is used both orally and topically. It is a water-soluble vitamin which means it is not stored in the body, so must be ingested or applied topically with some regularity to continue to get the benefits. ⁠

Vitamin B5 (Pantothenic Acid)⁠
Panthenol is a stable and non-irritating form of Vitamin B5. When applied topically, it penetrates the skin layers and gets absorbed by the skin from where it is converted to Vitamin B5. Panthenol performs double duty as both humectant that reduces moisture loss, and as a wound healing emollient, repairing and softening the skin. ⁠

Posted • Have dark spots that don’t seem to go away? WATCH & READ!

1️⃣ Being impatient & inconsistent.

It can take 12 weeks before you START to see results with fading your hyperpigmentation...and that’s with being consistent!

When I had recurring acne and hyperpigmentation in the past, it took me 9 mos to clear everything up.

2️⃣ Not wearing SPF regularly.

I think sometimes people only think of sunburn when I mention wearing sunscreen. Now as someone who has gone on vacation in the Caribbean with sunscreen on and STILL got burned, it’s a reality of course but many are not thinking about UVA rays—aka aging rays as well as visible light.

UVA rays are the culprit behind about 89% of visible aging on the skin—and yes it *can* crack your black...lol. Not only that but UVA and visible light can worsen pigmentation. Meaning, you’ll be on a hamster wheel trying to get rid of dark spots without wearing sunscreen.

3️⃣ Your spots are older.

Dark spots are easier to treat when they’re “fresh.” The older they are, the more you’ll need to see a skin of color pro for treatment. See my Dark Spots highlight on my page for info on how to find a skin of color pro.

4️⃣ You’re not stopping the cause of your hyperpigmentation.

LET’S TALK ABOUT SKIN
Black skin is rich in colour, texture and quality. Still, like all other skin types, it is often prone to a myriad of unwelcome conditions. While it would be easy enough to simply brush over our blemishes, Bolden prefers to get to the root of issues, and deal with them head-on.
