Environ C-Boost Mela-Even Cream is a topical skincare product designed to target uneven skin tone, hyperpigmentation, and sun damage. Here’s a breakdown of its key features:
 
Benefits:
Reduces Hyperpigmentation: This cream aims to address dark spots, age spots, and other forms of hyperpigmentation by targeting the melanin production process.
Brightens and Evens Skin Tone: By reducing hyperpigmentation, the cream seeks to create a more even and radiant complexion.
Supports Sun Protection: It offers some level of added protection against sun damage, although sunscreen remains essential.
Refines Skin Texture: The formula aims to refine skin texture and minimise the appearance of fine lines.
 
Key Ingredients:
Vitamin C (Ascorbyl Tetraisopalmitate): This is a stable, oil-soluble form of Vitamin C that can penetrate deeper into the skin. Vitamin C may help inhibit tyrosinase, an enzyme involved in melanin production, potentially leading to a reduction in hyperpigmentation.
Vitamin E: This antioxidant helps protect the skin from free radical damage and may enhance the effects of Vitamin C.
Glycerin: This humectant attracts and retains moisture in the skin, promoting hydration and a plump appearance.
 
How it Works:
Environ C-Boost Mela-Even Cream works by targeting melanin production. Melanin is the pigment responsible for skin colour. When melanin production is uneven, it can lead to hyperpigmentation. The key ingredients in this cream work in the following ways:
 
Vitamin C Inhibition: Vitamin C can help inhibit the activity of tyrosinase, an enzyme involved in melanin production. This can help reduce the formation of hyperpigmentation.
Antioxidant Protection: Vitamin E scavenges free radicals, which can damage skin cells and contribute to hyperpigmentation.
Hydration Boost: Glycerin attracts and retains moisture in the skin, leading to a plumper and more even-toned appearance.
 
Things to Consider:
Gradual Introduction: Vitamin C can be irritating to some skin types. It’s crucial to introduce Environ C-Boost Mela-Even Cream gradually
Sun Protection is Essential: While the cream might offer some added protection, it’s not a substitute for sunscreen. Daily use of a broad-spectrum sunscreen is crucial to prevent further sun damage and hyperpigmentation.
Part of a Regimen: Environ recommends using this cream as part of your skincare routine that incorporates the Mela fade system.
