Pigmentation is a common skin concern for many of us. In fact, it’s been the number one skin concern in Australia for years. Pigmentation refers to the colouring of the skin. Our skin colour is determined by melanin, a pigment produced by cells called melanocytes. When these cells become damaged or unhealthy, it affects melanin production, leading to uneven pigmentation. Factors such as sun exposure, hormonal changes, age, and certain medications can all contribute to this imbalance, resulting in dark spots and patches on the skin.

While many of us diligently apply sunscreen to our faces, we often neglect other parts of our body that are equally exposed to harmful UV rays, such as our hands. This oversight can lead to pigmentation and sun damage in these areas, making them appear aged and uneven. Sun protection is undoubtedly the most effective treatment against pigmentation. Still, for those already dealing with dark spots and uneven skin tone, advanced treatments can help restore a bright and even complexion.

That’s why Beaute and Be is excited to introduce the latest advanced skin treatment from Sothys: the Sothys Illuminating Facial. Designed to target pigmentation, dark spots, and uneven skin tone, on the face and hands, this advanced yet deeply luxurious facial is your ticket to radiant, glowing skin.

The Active Ingredients

White Nettle Extract: Sourced from the Jardin Sothys™, White Nettle Extract is renowned for its brightening properties. It helps to reduce the appearance of dark spots and promotes a more even skin tone. Its anti-inflammatory properties also soothe the skin, making it perfect for sensitive complexions.

Stabilised Vitamin C: Vitamin C is a powerhouse antioxidant that brightens the skin and promotes a more even complexion. The stabilised form ensures that the Vitamin C remains effective over time, providing long-lasting benefits. It helps to protect the skin from free radical damage, reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, and improves skin texture.

Encapsulated Ferulic Acid: Ferulic Acid is a potent antioxidant that enhances the stability and efficacy of other antioxidants like Vitamin C. Encapsulation ensures that the active ingredient is delivered deep into the skin, where it can provide the most benefit. It helps to protect the skin from environmental damage, reduce the appearance of dark spots, and promote a more even skin tone.

Niacinamide: Also known as Vitamin B3, Niacinamide is a multi-functional skincare ingredient that improves the skin’s barrier function, reduces the appearance of dark spots, and enhances skin elasticity. It is also known for its anti-inflammatory properties, which help to calm and soothe the skin.

Bisabolol: Derived from chamomile, Bisabolol is known for its soothing and anti-inflammatory properties. It helps calm irritated skin, making it perfect for sensitive or reactive skin types. It also enhances the skin’s ability to absorb other active ingredients, improving the overall effectiveness of the treatment.

Prickly Pear: Prickly Pear is rich in essential fatty acids, vitamins, and antioxidants. It helps to hydrate and plump the skin, improving its overall appearance and texture. This ingredient particularly benefits dry or dehydrated skin, providing deep hydration and nourishment.

The Illuminating Facial Experience

From the moment you step into our welcoming space, the journey to radiant, even-toned skin begins. The Sothys Illuminating Facial is more than just a treatment; it’s a luxurious experience designed to pamper your skin and senses.

The experience starts with a gentle yet thorough cleansing ritual to remove makeup and impurities, preparing your skin for the skin-brightening journey ahead. Next, we perform an exfoliation using the AC Pro Peel, delicately resurfacing your face and hands to reveal fresh, new skin underneath.

As you relax, the Illuminating Essence is applied to both the face and hands, precisely targeting dark spots. This is followed by applying an ultra-concentrated serum, rich with potent active ingredients, that penetrates deeply to work its magic from within.

The radiance action continues with a luxurious Vitamin C mask for your face, while an Illuminating Modelling Cream is massaged into your hands, allowing you to unwind completely. This dual action ensures your face and hands receive the care they deserve.

Next, a brightening Vitamin C mask is applied to the face while you indulge in a therapeutic hand massage. Your treatment continues with a heavenly face, neck, and décolleté massage, promoting renewal of the skin and soul.

A unifying mask envelops your skin in a cocoon of skin-smoothing nourishment before your treatment concludes with the Flawless Complexion Serum and Cream, sealed with SPF for protection and a luminous finish.

From the very first treatment, you will notice your skin appearing more even, hydrated, and radiant. With continued treatments, the visibility of dark spots will reduce significantly, and your skin will regain its youthful glow.

To maintain the results of the Illuminating Facial and prevent further pigmentation, it is crucial to protect your skin (including your hands!) daily with SPF. The Sothys Protective Youth Fluid SPF50 offers broad-spectrum UVA-UVB protection, making it an essential part of your skincare routine.
