How To Get Rid Of Dark Spots On Black Skin
Want to know how to get rid of dark spots on black skin? You’re in the right place – we got you!
We’ve known Chris-Tyler for years! He struggles with oily skin that is prone to breakouts and then has to mange the inevitable Post Inflammatory Hyperpigmentation (PIH)!!! He can usually keep it under control, but in the new normal, he’s been struggling a little more because of having to wear a face mask on a regular basis. He reached out and asked if we had anything that may be able to help with some dark spots that have popped up.
Our first thought went to a recent article we wrote 3 HydroPeptide Peel Combinations For Hyperpigmentation + Aging Beautifully. In the article we discuss a set of peel combinations, Barry fell in love with the Vitamin C 1 + Pumpkin Peel. We brainstormed, and decided that specific combination would be a perfect protocol on how to get rid of dark spots on black skin.
We had Chris-Tyler to the studio and took him through a complete skincare treatment that included peels masks, serums and spf!

We’re obsessed with Vitmain C – it’s the OG of antioxidants and has incredible brightening properites. We added this into Chris’s treatment to give his skin a little “boost”!

Apply SPF
If you want to know how to combat dark spots on black skin – RULE #1 WEAR SPF EV-A-RHI SINGLE DAY! This is non-negotiable! Down side of lots of SPFs on the market that are mineral based is – they may leave black skin with a white hue. You need to look for an SPF with a micronized mineral so it doesn’t leave a white cast on the skin. Chris uses Hale & Hush’s Broad Spectrum SPF every day and loves it’s moisturizing and protective properties!
Dual Shield & Hydrate
Broad Spectrum SPF 30 is the perfect combination of sun, sensitivity and age defense. Natural Zinc Oxide provides chemical-free broad-spectrum UVA/UVB protection at the surface while a specialized amino acid and algae blend provides UV protection at the cellular level.
