This fit is calculated for the concerns frequently associated with dark spots: hyperpigmentation, sun spots, and uneven skin tone. For scores based on a full skin profile (12D face scan, goals, preferences), use the Lovi app.

Works for skin with dark spots; other moisturizers fit it better.

## Why this fit

- Suitable for normal skin, this formula offers excellent moisturizing benefits due to multiple forms of hyaluronic acid and ceramides, which support skin hydration and barrier function. Beta-glucan further enhances its soothing properties for your skin.
- While it provides general skincare benefits like hydration, it lacks specialized ingredients to directly address your main goal of pigmentation.
- The product is safe for your normal skin, with no risks of irritation from harsh ingredients and the inclusion of soothing components.

## What the research says

- Skin care regimens containing beta-glucan improved hemoglobin index, skin hydration, and transepidermal water loss compared to vehicle control in 20 patients undergoing fractional laser therapy. ([Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, 2021](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33128496/))
- A single application of a moisturizing fluid containing hyaluronic acid 1%, glycerin 5%, and Centella asiatica stem cells extract significantly increased skin hydration by 29% and reduced transepidermal water loss at 24 hours compared to baseline and an untreated control site in twenty healthy women.

- Treatment with a hyaluronic acid-containing mouth rinse or topical gel led to significant lesion reduction, pain relief, and normalization of lesion color in adult patients with minor recurrent aphthous stomatitis, with the gel formulation showing an earlier healing onset at 3 days. ([BMC Oral Health, 2019](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31311529/))
- The emollient V0034CR significantly reduced TEWL compared to vehicle and vehicle plus glycerol, and significantly increased corneometry scores compared to vehicle and vehicle plus petrolatum in healthy volunteers with dry skin, demonstrating combined barrier function improvement from petrolatum and hydration improvement from glycerol. ([Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, 2020](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/31532576/))
- Ten days of treatment with a cream containing 20% glycerin significantly increased skin hydration measured by corneometer values in 17 healthy volunteers compared to a placebo cream, but showed no influence on transepidermal water loss or skin sensitivity to an irritating surfactant. ([International Journal of Cosmetic Science, 2001](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/18498456/))
- Niacinamide/glycerin body moisturizers provided better rapid and prolonged improvement of cosmetic xerosis through functional improvement of stratum corneum barrier function compared to no treatment and conventional moisturizers in female subjects.

([Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, 2024](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/38590207/))

## Why other moisturizers fit skin with dark spots better

## Questions and answers

### How well does Rhode Glazing Milk work for skin with dark spots?

Rhode Glazing Milk works for skin with dark spots as a basic moisturizer, though it lacks specialized ingredients to directly fade dark spots. A moisturizing treatment for this skin needs targeted brightening ingredients to help with dark spots.
Sources: [Clinical, Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology, 2017](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28860834/), [Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, 2021](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/33128496/)

### Which ingredients make this treatment a good fit for skin with dark spots?

This treatment is a moderate fit for skin with dark spots because it provides good moisture with hyaluronic acid, glycerin, and ceramides, but it lacks the specialized brightening ingredients needed to directly target and fade dark spots.
Sources: [Clinical, Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology, 2017](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28860834/)

### What do Ceramides do for skin with dark spots?

Ceramides help keep your skin barrier strong and well-hydrated, which supports overall skin health even though they do not directly fade dark spots. A product for dark spots also needs ingredients like niacinamide or vitamin C to help brighten your skin tone and reduce discoloration.
Sources: [International Journal of Dermatology, 2008](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/18717861/), [Skin Pharmacology and Physiology, 2023](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37717558/)

### What does Hyaluronic Acid do for skin with dark spots?

Hyaluronic acid is unlikely to directly fade dark spots, but it helps keep dry and uneven skin plump and deeply hydrated. To effectively target dark spots, this type of skin needs brightening ingredients like vitamin C or niacinamide alongside your hydrator.

### Where does this treatment go in a skincare routine for skin with dark spots?

This moisturizing treatment goes in the morning routine after a hydrating toner and before sunscreen, and in the evening routine after your cleansing toner and before your moisturizer. While it provides good hydration and soothing benefits, skin with dark spots also needs targeted brightening ingredients like vitamin C or niacinamide to effectively fade discoloration.
Sources: [The Journal of Dermatological Treatment, 2022](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32239984/), [Clinical, Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology, 2017](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28860834/)

### Can I use this treatment with retinol, and in what order?

You can use this treatment with retinol by applying it as a hydrating step to help keep skin soft and calm while reducing irritation. A product of this type needs brightening ingredients like vitamin C, niacinamide, or alpha arbutin to effectively fade dark spots.
Sources: [Cutis, 2006](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/17121065/), [Clinical, Cosmetic and Investigational Dermatology, 2017](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/28860834/)

### How often should I use this treatment?

You can use this moisturizing treatment twice daily to help keep your skin soft and hydrated. While it offers good basic moisture, skin with dark spots also needs targeted brightening ingredients like vitamin C or niacinamide to help fade discoloration.
Sources: [Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, 2020](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/32141711/), [Health Science Reports, 2021](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34141902/)

### Can this treatment clog pores, cause breakouts or purging for skin with dark spots?

This treatment may sometimes clog pores or cause breakouts, as reviewers note moderate complaints about acne. Products for this skin need non-clogging, lightweight hydrators and gentle brighteners that target dark spots without causing breakouts.
Sources: [Contemporary Clinical Trials Communications, 2021](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34471722/)

### Can I use this treatment around the eyes or on my body?

You can safely use this moisturizing treatment around the eyes and on the body because it has a very good safety profile for normal skin. However, since the skin around the eyes is the thinnest on the body, the gentle ceramides and hyaluronic acid help keep it hydrated without causing irritation.
Sources: [Surgical and Radiologic Anatomy, 2002](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/12375070/), [Polymers, 2023](https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/37896378/)

### Is this treatment fragrance-free and alcohol-free?

Yes, it has no fragrance and no drying alcohol.
