Fade out extra care: active fade cream

This is a useful product for fading unwanted marks on the skin, in particular, those caused by the sun – freckles, sunspots etc… It can also be used to fade abnormal dark pigmentation areas, and age or liver spots on the face and hands.

Brown marks on the skin are due to a build up of pigment (Melanin) under the skin, which is constantly being brought to the surface. This process is particularly active when the skin is exposed to sunlight and so causes freckles and brown marks to appear.

Fade out extra care needs to be given about 6 weeks applying morning and night for a result to be seen. Although it is rather a greasy and heavy white cream, once it has been absorbed by the skin, make-up can be applied as usual. It is really in place of a moisturiser, as it does the same job, but with the added bonus of fading unwanted brown marks.

It *does* actually care for your skin as well, as it contains Vitamin E (helps prevent damage caused by UV light, and helps to delay the signs of aging), Panthenol B5 (Pro-Vitamin B5) (moisturises and softens the skin), and UVA/UVB Sunscreens (help block the UV rays which cause sunburn, skin damage and premature aging of the skin).

It’s best to do a skin test before you start using it properly, just to check you’re not allergic to any of the ingredients. Then, make sure you keep using it, and you will see the results. I have freckles, and they have faded significantly since I started using Fade out. I tend to just use it as a normal moisturiser, all over my face, and on the backs of my hands, although you can use it in specific areas.

Available in Boots, Superdrug, and most pharmacies at around £5.99 for a 50ml pot.
