Eucerin-focused skincare routine for skin with dark spots

Routine by Lovi · Unbiased, science-based skincare AI trained on real user outcomes · How the Fit score works

A routine for skin with dark spots built around Eucerin products, complemented by other brands where they fit better, for complete care.

Moisturizers and serums with niacinamide and vitamin C help brighten dark spots and even out skin tone. Cleansing toners with lactic and glycolic acid gently remove dull surface cells to improve uneven pigmentation.

The morning routine prepares the skin for the day: it cleans off the night, hydrates, and protects, with sunscreen as its last step. The evening routine removes sunscreen, makeup, and the day's oil, then treats the skin while the skin rests and is away from the sun. The weekly routine takes the place of the evening routine once a week to add deeper exfoliation and masks for hyperpigmentation, sun spots, and uneven skin tone.
