Anyone who has struggled with blemish marks can understand how frustrating it is to resort to hiding. Hiding them with your concealer, face masks, or even using different apps to erase the blemishes can only do so much. What’s worse is that some marks take weeks—and even forever to fade. Well, if you can relate, Olay’s got you covered. The beauty powerhouse recently launched its NEW Olay Luminous + AHA collection exclusively in Shopee that combines the power of their signature ingredient niacinamide, plus AHA, the new cult fave ingredient known for helping fade stubborn blemish marks.
What Are Blemish Marks, And Where Do They Come From?
We’ve all had our fair share of blemish marks. Depending on the type, blemish marks can appear light brown to gray patches, at times, some can look well-defined brown to black spots.
Blemish marks are triggered by melanin imbalance, caused by varied external and internal stressors such UV exposure, inflammation, and even hormonal changes. These stressors trigger signals in skin that eventually cause melanin to be produced in a concentrated fashion, leading to the appearance of a blemish.
There’s hope, though! With the right product formulation, melanin production can be regulated and blemish marks can eventually be cleared.
