My Current Melasma & Hyperpigmentation Morning Skincare Routine |

[@SusanYara]

Hi All! I shot this a few weeks ago and I’m really happy to report the erythema is gone and my melasma is starting to clear up. I’ll share a nighttime routine really soon!

[@marialabrie6609]

Yes please!!!!

[@lindseyprozanski2898]

I tea so funny that you’re trying to clear melasma it looks like freckles which is something people are drawing on nowadays 😂 I think you look beautiful either way. Looking forward to the nighttime routine. Do you have a video over dry skin that’s acne prone?

[@rajashreebalakrishnan7987]

I wish you wouldn't obsess over the melasma....you look so beautiful even with the melasma 😊

[@KZ-pt5qk]

How does makeup sit on your skin after this routine?

[@annielira9219]

I think that melasma is really not that bad but we are always more critical with ourselves. 😊

[@umb819]

My current routine and it works: Inkey list brightening cleanser Cetaphil tinted moisturiser Natrium super serum

[@agathacarpo5275]

Can you please do a nighttime one too?

[@mairacobon8816]

Awesome routine and I agree with others. We would love to see your nighttime routine for melasma/hyperpigmentation with incorporating RX Tretinoin

[@harpospeaking]

Would you be willing to show before and after photos of your melasma so we can see how much of a difference treatments and skincare routines have improved it?

[@dariagabrielapantiru1504]

Omg Susan's melasma looks like it's gotten better than it used to be!

[@upasanaveturi4060]

Wow I really love how that sunscreen looks on your skin!

Hi Susan ,I’m 57 and my skin is dry and sensitive and I also have melasma , so I really appreciate videos like this one 💕

It works, but I use mine at night and leave it on for a long time and moisturize the hell out of my face.

[@theglowingbrownie5124]

I had no idea what had happened with your skincare line since I am not that into beauty community gossip but I want you to know that I have been trying your products and I love them and the big deal people made out of something that wasn't any of their business, is that I bought the products in the first place...glad I did!!

[@alannamaher]

I swear you get prettier with every video! Your skin looks amazing 🤗

[@dominiquetheeasyminimalist]

Your skin is just so beautiful! I’ve learned so much from you and Hyram, and I was able to get rid of a lot of my hyperpigmentation thanks to you. My skin is more even, and I’m now confident going out without foundation because it has a nice glow to it. The spots don’t bother me that much, and I enjoy that my skin is much healthier. Thank you Susan! 🤗

[@soniak2269]

I have been using the Naturium tranexamic acid and the alpha Arbutin serum with my vitamin c in the morning and using an OTC hydraquinone at night before my tretinoin. They haven’t worked miracles because I think that’s an impossibility with hyperpigmentation especially hormone related pigmentation, but I do think all of it together is helping to somewhat fade the pigment and give my skin an overall more even look. Thank you for all the knowledge Susan! You are gorgeous inside and out ☺️

[@ericavigil9567]

Melasma can be treated internally. Brianna stanko has several in depth videos on how to treat it from the inside

[@tyresseferguson2462]

i have hyperpigmentation AND acne and i definitely have a lengthy more intense routine like this because i truly have to! love this and the ingredients you use are super similar to the stuff i layer in the AM

Would you mind listing what you use and what's given you success. I have acne and melasma also. Thanks!

[@lalatabi5134]

How amazing to watch this educational and inspiring video. Thank you for sharing. I learnt a lot

[@jennifersaylors3952]

I've seen some derms suggesting titanium dioxide isnt enough as it doesnt protect against long wave UVA, only short wave UVA. I would consider this when choosing sunscreens that use TD as the only filter.

[@tavond7955]

Thank you, I’m a black men suffering so much Lately from dark spots and you have really been helping me with showing multiple products that help with this

[@arosef6522]

Yes please nighttime routine for Melasma.

[@RamatoulieBo]

I've started using the azelaic acid emulsion in my morning routine and it's so nice! My morning routine is focused on brightening as well and I'm looking forward to seeing what results are adding this in!

[@kitkat7370]

With cosmelan treatments he skin must be prepped for about 10-14 days prior to the peel with treatments like kojic acid + tranexamic acid and even retinols, post treatment you should have been provided with a home cosmelan pack, which you use for for a few months which help prevent further hyperpigmentation.

[@bee-anca236]

Interested in the first step long term results -please do a follow up 🙏🏽😊

[@lucilazwanck2616]

Hi Susan, the Eucerin Anti-Pigment is great for melasma, you have to traid it.

[@katmuwoo]

Would love a Csypera update!

[@reginaceniceros5198]

Please add your nighttime skin routine.

[@hnskiyo2784]

Not sure why LRP doesn’t include Zinc in their tinted liquid for better UVA protection. Titanium Dioxide alone isn’t enough!

[@wonderland2023]

I have no idea as I have not tried it for Melasma spelling? however I use my Ziip beauty device and there is a setting total clearing that has helped my skin pigmentation issues, I believe Melasma is also treated. I love my Ziip. I also (You probably know all this, Eucerin product (the European line) some people swear by. You're beautiful.

[@beer_bad]

It's SOOOO nice when influencers don't talk down organic/chemical sunscreens. And .. that sunscreen looks ridiculously good on you!

[@LaJessChelle]

Oh, I’m definitely going to try that powder tip. The chemical sunscreens definitely bother my eyes. Thanks for sharing!

[@cynthiamcazares3859]

Your eyebrows stay so nice and groomed thru this whole routine. They don’t even get washed out from the powder. Do you have a gel on them or any other product/treatment??

[@teresabasson3809]

I had a friend who had tattooed eyebrows. They are good for life, I think.

Thank you for the tip to pat powder around eyes after applying sunscreen when you don't wear makeup. This is a very helpful video about dealing with melasma Susan. Wish you can get rid of melasma soon. Lauren from Houston.

[@fitandwell333]

Hi Susan can you do a video of what acids/serums you shouldn't layer? And when you layer products do you have a recommendation on what goes first and last?

[@tyresseferguson2462]

I layer 4 of the Naturium serums in the same routine (alpha arbutin, tranexamic acid, vitamin c, & azelaic acid) and my skin has been loving it but I only do this 4 nights a week. The other nights are all about hydration and protection of the skin. In the morning I use the Naturium alpha arbutin essence and mix the Good Molecules vitamin c powder into it.

[@michellefecke8456]

OMG do I love her brand NATURIUM. One of the best hands down. I have her face wash many of her serums and her retinol cream. Her brand has really help save my face from breakouts. My face is oily and acne prone. I’ve turned my sister in law on it and she loves it. Best thing now is it’s at target. Every body run to go get it.

[@stace6369]

I totally agree, I've been searching for product n try new product for years after years n it never work well for my face until I found her video n I binge watch all of them n decided to try all her product n I fell in love with all of them. My skin is super sensitive n dry n flakey but her product fix the problem. I love it n I recommend her product.

I have been noticing melasma on my skin and it has started to spread but I am noticing some big change after starting my routine. I want to thank you for sharing your knowledge for people like me who did not think skincare routine is crucial :) I would love to see your nighttime routine!

Hi Susan. Thank you for sharing this. Looking forward to the night routine as well. What should I do differently if I have melasma, hyperpigmentation and am acne prone? Thanks!

I cant even say your melasma is a problem bcz u still look so great ! The end result of the skincare is what we all aim to acheive! You are just amazing to watch ❤️thank god we have you😀🥰

[@joannamoon9888]

Titanium dioxide only filters uva type 2!! So all the long uva rays are still making their way into your skin. I know you live in the USA and you don’t have easy access to good sunscreens but if you truly want to get rid of malasma then a high uva protection European sunscreen with innovative filters is the way to go. Uva-pf of above 50 is what I go for.

[@maurao6287]

We really need those new filters here in the US, the overseas shipping prices are more expensive than the product itself and honestly getting good uva protection shouldn’t be that expensive.

[@friedchicken892]

Any exaples?

[@joannamoon9888]

@@friedchicken892 my top favourite ones are P20 kids spf50+ (uva-pf of above 50) I’ve been using it for years, amazing protection that lasts for a very long time and all my family are using it, even nephews with sensitive skin. Evy technology kids spf50 (my go to everyday sunscreen, I wear this even if I don’t leave the house, feels very nice one the skin) La Roche posay uvmune spf50+ (has new first of its kind filter that protects against the longest uva rays and comes in two different formulas but can stain white/light clothes) this one is not cruelty free though These are my go to, pretty much the best you can get as far as my research goes. All of them use great filters that are not available on the us market. Titanium dioxide only sunscreen is probably the worst thing you can buy for pigmentation and anti ageing, especially if you know you’re going to be in direct sunlight, it’s giving false sense of protection. I always say if you’re getting a tan, you’re damaging your skin and your sunscreen in not protecting you well.

[@taraimakire5408]

So glad I watched this. I was thinking that my routine might be too much but, with the exception of the Cyspera and the powder, I’m using all of the same products (not necessarily the same brands) as you. I am also of Asian heritage with melasma so I’m feeling pretty proud of the routine I came up with after finding out it almost mimics a pro’s routine. Thanks for the confidence boost Susan 😃

[@chrisluisangel]

I have melasma as well I’m a very light skin Hispanic. So you can use multiple treatments at once? I’m currently using in the morning vitamin C moisturizer and tinted spf. In the night I alternate 3 days a week I use tretinoin. The other days I use the ordinary buffet, cerave pm moisturizer then rose hip oil.. but I don’t really see a difference. 1 or 2 days I use either salicylic acid, glycolic or lactic acid.

[@taraimakire5408]

@@chrisluisangel I started out with Buffet and TO vitamin c suspension + HA but I didn’t see any difference in my pigmentation after a month. So I added alpha arbutin and switched to ascorbyl tetraisopaamitate in vitamin F and niacinimide from TO since it’s easy to get that brand in Canada. Then added Cos De Baha azelaic and Face Theory Exaglow (super hard to find azelaic and tranexamic in Canada). Feel like I’m finally making progress on the melasma and haven’t experienced any irritation. Using TO natural moisturizing factors and Pipette mineral SPF 50 AM and Cetraben PM Biggest regret is that I started proper sunscreen use too late in life and all my stupid years are definitely showing on my face

[@chrisluisangel]

@@taraimakire5408 I used TO alpha arbutin and inkey tranexamic acid and it did lighten some melasma on my cheeks. I finished them and didn’t buy them again instead bought TO azelaic acid i finished it and I just bought the cos de baha azelaic. I use different spfs elta md. And the Pipette spf that I love! I gotta try that TO moisturizing factors. Yup same here for me I realized I got melasma after having my 2 kids and using birth control. I stopped already about 6 yrs but it hasn’t gotten any better I think actually somewhat worse !

Let’s get an updated makeup video with what you and Nikki use to cover hyperpigmentation .

[@sara_387]

Sorry, but you would probably be better off staying on the Elta Md with zinc oxide...this sunscreen featured only has titanium dioxide which isn’t a good UVA filter. It only covers UVA2 and not the longer UVA1, and is primarily a UVB filter.

You can't use bha/aha, azelaic acid with retinol in one routine you can aha/bha in the form of a cleanser or use aha/bha or azelaic acid in the morning and retinol at night
