Exposure to ultraviolet (UV) rays is one of the main factors contributing to skin darkening and the appearance of spots. This occurs due to the excessive accumulation of melanin, which leads to localized hyperpigmentation and disrupts the uniformity of skin tone.
While sunscreens provide essential protection by reflecting or absorbing UV radiation, they cannot neutralize the oxidative damage that this exposure causes at the cellular level. For this reason, their action should be complemented with bioactive ingredients, such as natural phenols, which provide true antioxidant and anti-inflammatory activity, helping to protect the skin from within and prevent the effects of photoaging.
