Use time in lockdown to spring clean your makeup and skincare products

If you’re a bit of a beauty enthusiast and have a tendency to buy more products than you need, it’s likely there are a few products in your makeup bag or bathroom that need to go in the bin! Use this time at home to have a good spring clean of your collection and throw away any expired products.

What is hyperpigmentation? Which treatments are effective?
Hyperpigmentation is a common, usually harmless condition where patches of skin become darker in color than the normal surrounding skin. This darkening occurs when an excess of melanin, the brown pigment that produces normal skin color, forms deposits in the skin. It is commonly found on the cheeks, forehead, upper lip and also other areas of the body such as the hands and chest.
