About
Hyperpigmentation occurs due to excess melanin production, the pigment responsible for darkening the skin. This can be triggered by prolonged sun exposure and skin trauma, such as acne. Hyperpigmentation appears as dark patches and age spots (also known as sun spots) and make the skin look uneven.
Eucerin Anti-Pigment Face Day Cream provides daily moisture for your skin and is enriched with highly effective ingredients to help target uneven pigmentation at the root cause:
Thiamidol is a patented ingredient which helps to regulate excess melanin production to visibly reduce dark spots and prevent their reappearance.
SPF 30 provides daily sun protection and to prevent sun-induced pigment spots (i.e. age spots) a result of sun exposure.
The formula is light weight, non-greasy and absorbs quickly.

Thiamidol(R) is an effective and patented ingredient that acts at the root cause of hyperpigmentation. Thiamidol is clinically proven to reduce hyperpigmentation on all skin types, preventing its re-appearance with regular usage. The active was developed in over 10 years of research based on screening of a library of 50,000 compounds.
Licochalcone A is a potent anti-inflammatory and antioxidant active that is derived from the roots of the Chinese licorice plant Glycyrrhiza inflata. Licochalcone A protects cells from oxidative stress mediated by UV and blue light (HEVIS).
Licochalcone A is able to activate anti-inflammatory, antioxidant and detoxifying enzymes. These enzymes protect the skin cells from damage induced by oxidative stress, like lipid peroxidation and DNA as wells as protein damage. Licochalcone A is able to soothe irritated skin and redness.
