Hyperpigmentation Correctors

Hyperpigmentation is caused by an excess production of melanin (the compound which gives skin its colour) due to injury, hormonal imbalances or skin conditions such as acne or eczema. It is one of the most common concerns affecting Black skin, and can be challenging to tackle and resolve completely. Hyperpigmentation and uneven skin tone can often have a deeper emotional impact than the original cause, and finding the right skincare solution can improve skin confidence as well as skin health and appearance. There are many products for hyperpigmentation available, and the choice can be overwhelming to navigate.

We’ve brought together the best #BSDApproved hyperpigmentation skincare that we’ve tested, trialled and obsessed over to make finding the right hyperpigmentation treatment for dark skin simple. Whether you’re looking for the best product for dark spots, skincare to brighten uneven skin tone, or the solution to stubborn hyperpigmentation, we’ve collected the best options together to help you find your new hyperpigmentation hero products.

Black Skin Directory’s Hyperpigmentation Heroes Hot List has been split into skin types to direct you to the most suitable hyperpigmentation skincare for you. When tackling dark spots, it is essential to also understand the cause of your hyperpigmentation. If you have oily, spot-prone skin, make sure you have controlled your breakouts to get the most effective hyperpigmentation for dark skin. Where uneven skin tone has occurred because of an injury, it is important to make sure the skin has healed fully so you can understand the extent of the hyperpigmentation.
