While I’m lucky that wrinkles are not a big skin concern for me right now, dark spots and discolorations (also known as Hyperpigmentation) are by far my biggest issues.

There have been several skincare product launches recently that work to tackle this problem including Estee Lauder Idealist Even Skin Tone Illuminator, and Elizabeth Arden Prevage Clarity Skin Tone Corrector. But when I heard about the new Rx For Brown Skin line, I felt I should take a closer look.

Rx For Brown Skin is as line of skincare products that address the needs of women with brown skin. Their philosophy is that brown skin is special and requires a customized care solution. They consider brown skin to range from skin tones as fair as Jennifer Lopez or Lucy Lui to as deep as Eve or Queen Latifa. When we asked the brand founder, Dr. Susan Taylor, what the real difference is between her line and other mainstream lines on the market, her reply was that “it’s developed and tested only on women with brown skin”. So given that I’m a woman with brown skin, I was ready to test drive these products.

I began using 2 of the products in the line: the Rx For Brown Skin Gentle Cleanser and the Naturally Flawless Advanced Botanical Brightener.

The Gentle Cleanser contains their special Bright Skin Complex which is a blend of – A blend of Soy, Pomegranate and Hyaluronic Acid. Soy to specifically target uneven skin tone. Pomegranate is a powerful antioxidant to help protect against free radicals. And, Hyaluronic Acid to hydrate skin for a softer, smoother texture as well as Green Tea to protect from environmental toxins.

I love the fact that it cleans my skin but doesn’t over-dry my skin like others that I’ve tried. The only down side is that it did not generate a lot of lather.

Naturally Flawless Advanced Botanical Brightener claims to brighten your overall compexion, and to fade the discoloration of scars, dark spots, etc. After using it for about 4 weeks, I’m began to see some improvement.

I had some acne scars on my chin before I started using the product. And after a few weeks, I did see some fading of them.

Overall, I liked both products and look forward to continue using them to see if they can visibly diminish my dark spots …. for good!

The Gentle Cleanser retails for $26.95. And the Botanical Brightener retails for $34.95. And both can be purchased on www.RxForBrownSkin.com.
