Uneven skin tone happens to a lot of people. Whether the skin is dry, oily, or a combination, everyone will experience different kinds of uneven skin tone at some point in their lives, whether it's from acne or just from general wear and tear from the sun. Most people just live with it — or all did for years is to fight it.

Uneven skin tone is a skin condition in which the color of your skin varies from one part of your body to the next. Potential causes include genetics, underlying health conditions, sun exposure, and aging. Uneven skin tones come in a variety of forms, each with its own set of treatment options.


Prevention of uneven skin tone

Because it's impossible to completely prevent uneven skin tone, it's important that you do everything you can to reduce the risk of developing these dark spots. Here are some tips for doing so:

  • Use sunscreen every day. Sun exposure causes the skin to darken, which results in uneven skin tone and makes those spots harder to cover up with makeup. Fortunately, using a broad-spectrum sunscreen every day can help prevent this from happening.

Broad Spectrum UVA/UVB protection with 100% mineral sunscreens – Face Unique lightness and effectiveness! A sun preparation created for all skin types, including combination skin, oily skin, and sensitive skin, to be integrated into your daily skincare ritual.
*How to use: Shake well before use. In the morning or before sun exposure, on thoroughly cleansed skin, apply alone or over your usual day cream. Massage in gently.

The 100% mineral sunscreen filters provide broad spectrum UV protection and skin-enhancing benefits to soothe and calm sensitive skin. Ultra-lightweight, formula absorbs quickly into the skin with no white residue.
*How to use: Apply generously and evenly to face and neck 15 minutes before sun exposure. Reapply every 2 hours or after 40 minutes of swimming or perspiring and immediately after towel drying.

An all-mineral formula using zinc oxide provides broad-spectrum protection against sunlight. Since the sunscreen is all mineral, it's gentle enough for sensitive and post-procedure skin. Using zinc oxide also makes the sunscreen reef safe. The formula also includes a number of antioxidants, including niacinamide, vitamin E, and an exclusive ellagic acid complex. These help to prevent dark spots and visible premature skin aging. Niacinamide also brightens the complexion and helps to even skin tone.
*How to use: Apply liberally 15 minutes before sun exposure. Reapply - after 40 minutes of swimming or sweating, immediately after towel drying, at least every 2 hours.

Offering excellent UVB and UVA protection, TIZO SOLAR PROTECTION SPF 50+ prevents burning and photoaging through its broad-spectrum complex. This purely mineral sunscreen is gentle and lightly tinted to blend into all skin tones effectively.
*How to use: Apply after moisturizer. Reapply as needed.


  • Avoid sun exposure as much as possible—especially between 10 AM and 4 PM, when UV rays are strongest.
  • Use a moisturizer regularly on areas prone to developing hyperpigmentation (like your face). This will keep those areas hydrated and therefore less susceptible to becoming darker in color than other parts of your body due to sun damage or stress on the skin caused by acne medication or other types of treatment like laser hair removal that cause redness. It may also help improve their appearance by reducing flaking and irritation caused by dryness or excessive use of topical acne medications such as retinol or benzoyl peroxide products.

Radiance facial cream revives the skin with Multivitamins and brightens the complexion. Light texture, a fresh scent. Eliminates signs of fatigue and provides a radiant complexion. For all types of skin. Paraben-free.
*How to use: Apply morning and/or night on the face and neck.

A facial moisturizer that moisturizes while it smooths skin texture and evens skin color and tone.
*How to use: Apply every morning on cleansed skin.

*How to use: Apply to skin after cleansing and toning. Layer over targeted treatment serum for extra benefits. Can be used twice daily.


  • Do not pick at the skin, even if you have acne, cuts, etc.
  • Exfoliate on a regular basis, but not too frequently. It is suggested to do exfoliating once or twice a week.

A gentle but effective micro-scrub with soothing plant extracts to help remove dead skin cells, helping to reveal a more vibrant, even-toned complexion.

*How to use: Massage a small amount of the skin polishing cleanser onto clean, damp skin, avoiding the eye area. Rinse thoroughly after 2 to 3 minutes. Follow with Brightening Serum and your favorite Glo Skin Beauty moisturizer. Use up to 2 to 3 times per week.

An exfoliating cream that removes all traces of dead cells and impurities that accumulate on the surface of the skin. Regular use helps reduce the appearance of irregularities and opened pores while improving the aspect of the skin’s texture for a radiant and healthy complexion.
*How to use: Apply a layer of Nelly De Vuyst 3 Minute Gommage over the face, the neck, the eyelids, and the lips. Massage the skin with the fingertips to remove dead cells and impurities. Rinse with warm water, and dry gently.


Treatments for uneven skin tone

Pigmentation is a common cause of uneven skin tone and can be treated in the following ways:

  • Laser therapy has been used to treat some types of pigmentation. It works by using light to target and destroy the cells that produce melanin, which gives skin its color. This procedure can be painful and may require a few sessions before results are seen. However, it can be effective in getting rid of scars and other marks on your face such as birthmarks.
  • Chemical peels use chemicals applied directly onto the skin to remove cells from the surface layer (epidermis). This process helps exfoliate dead skin cells so newer ones can grow back more quickly than usual. Chemical peels are generally safe when performed under medical supervision; however, they should not be used if you have certain medical conditions or allergies that may make this treatment dangerous for you personally.
  • Include a retinol product in your evening routine and a topical antioxidant Vitamin C serum in your morning routine.

An anti-aging, vitamin C serum that tones firm sagging skin and reduces the visible signs of aging.
*How to use: Cleanse and Tone. Apply Cellex-C High-Potency Serum*. Squeeze 4 to 5 drops into the palm of your hand. Using fingertips smooth the serum over your face (avoiding the eye area), neck, and V of the chest. Apply Hydra 5 B-Complex. Apply moisturizer or sunscreen of choice.

10% Vitamin C neutralizes free radicals to prevent skin cell damage. Professional strength Vitamin C can give your skin the superior protection it needs to:
  • Prevent premature signs of aging, including fine lines and wrinkles
  • Protect against future damage
  • Stimulate collagen production for firmer, more resilient skin
  • Lighten and brighten skin for a more even tone
*How to use: Apply 5 to 7 drops of Obagi Professional-C Serum to the face, neck, and chest using fingertips. Apply to cleansed skin in the morning before sunscreen and makeup application. A slight tingling may occur in some people, which diminishes with continued use.

Retinol provides visible retinol anti-aging results while nourishing the skin and minimizing any irritation, peeling, and dryness.
*How to use: To acclimatize to this retinol product, increase use weekly on non-consecutive days; week one; use once, week two; use twice, and so on. Only for nighttime use. Gently spread a pea-sized amount of product across the surface of the skin with your fingertips, and wait a few moments for maximum penetration. Avoid the eye area. For external use only.


Specifically formulated for discoloration, this advanced pure nighttime retinol treatment features a delivery system often used in pharmaceuticals, yet entirely new to skincare. The patented Omnisome delivery system stabilizes and carries a unique blend of ingredients deeper into the skin for superior results. This innovative formula reduces signs of discoloration and brightens and smoothes. Visible results have been seen in as little as four weeks.
*How to use: In the evening only, apply a pea-sized amount after cleansing. Use twice per week, gradually increasing application frequency to every other night, and then advancing to each evening or as tolerated. Follow with the appropriate moisturizer.

Warning: Mild irritation may initially be experienced and is not a sign of a negative complication. This product is indicated for use in the evening only.

Note: It is important to wear a broad spectrum SPF during the day when using this product at night since retinol is sun sensitizing.
