At Revea, we measure over 40 parameters to track your skin’s health including your hydration levels, milieu, energy supply, dermal fibers, and skin tone to create your custom formulation. Let’s dive into what impacts your skin tone score and how to improve it – a key parameter the Revea AI technology tracks to help you achieve healthy, radiant skin.
How to Measure Your Skin Tone
The skin tone parameter measures the evenness of color across your face. The majority of the visible color on your face comes from the presence of pigment (melanin).
Your skin tone reflects how and where melanin is distributed in the skin. Uneven skin tone is, therefore, the overproduction of melanin in the skin and can take the form of dark spots, sunspots, and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH).
Why is Measuring Your Skin Tone Important?
Unenveness in your skin’s tone can manifest in various undesirable ways, including dark/light spots, splotches, or scarring.
These manifestations can detract from the overall health, look, and radiance of one’s skin.
What Impacts Your Skin Tone Score?
Skin tone unevenness can result from tissue damage, UV exposure, hormonal changes, genetics, and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH) following a breakout.
How to Improve Evenness of Tone
You can improve your skin tone’s evenness by:
Wearing a broad-spectrum SPF of 30-50 daily in order to prevent further damage.
Incorporating skincare products with brightening agents into your daily skincare routine. (We recommend vitamin C and niacinamide).
Avoiding picking at blemishes that can cause inflammation and lead to PIH.
Maintaining a balanced diet and sleep cycle.
Remember, improving your skin tone’s evenness isn’t an overnight occurrence. It takes time, consistency, and patience to see visible results.
