Shiseido Vital-Perfection White Circulator Serum

According to Shiseido, the formation of dark spots is controlled by an “inner melano shield”. Simply put, this shield acts like a “gate” in the skin and when it’s broken, stubborn spots begin to surface. To prevent this, it’s important to keep this “gate” strong by ensuring that there’s sufficient basement membrane proteins and heparan sulfate — the two essential building blocks of the skin’s “inner melano shield”. This new anti-ageing and whitening serum boasts a “Shield Builder WT” ingredient that boosts heparan sulfate and repairs the basement membrane proteins to build a stronger defense for the skin. This way, it becomes tougher for dark spots to appear on the skin.

Simplicité Botanic Gel Mask

Acne and redness are symptoms that your skin is under stress. This “mix-it-yourself” mask might resolve your problems. Suitable for all skin types, it’s made from organically grown herbs including elderflowers and calendula to pacify irritations. And it’s simple to use: Mix the contents with hot water to create a mask paste. Before it dries up, apply a thick layer of the warm paste onto your skin. Allow it to sit for five minutes before wiping it off with a damp cloth.
