Whitening products for this season

Spring is a season to start focusing on whitening and rejuvenating. Most
skincare companies have launched new whitening products specifically
created for Asian skin to directly address discoloration with a
custom-fit approach to daily treatment, prevention and makeup.

Estee Lauder research shows that Asian skin is thinner than Caucasian's
and as a result allows a stronger amount of ultraviolet light to
penetrate into the deeper layers creating more damage.

During a visit to Asia, Bobbi Brown learned that Asian women have unique
skincare concerns. So she made it her mission to develop the Bobbi Brown
Brightening Collection for those concerned about the damaging effects of
sun exposure and the environment on skin.

Shu Uemura whitening goes beyond achieving white skin without spots. To
achieve "very high quality beautiful skin" that is translucent from
within, the best balance of moisture, metabolism and oxidation are
equally important. Shu Uemura defines this approach as "balance
whitening."

Most whitening products from famous skincare brands are carefully
developed to be extremely effective yet gentle, as they know and
understand the excessive delicacy of Asian skin.

Brightening is designed to go beyond normal skincare to help even out
skin tone and bring about more clarity and luminosity.

*Biotherm White Detox Extra Dual Layer Corrective Make-up Base SPF25
PA+++ (395 yuan/US$51.10)

This new makeup base instantly corrects imperfections in skin tone and
brings out the natural transparency of the complexion while providing
all-day protection from the appearance of dark spots.

*Estee Lauder Cyber White 7 Pathways Whitening Essence (780 yuan)

This product addresses seven ways to restore and maintain the skin's
translucency, inner light and clarity. Formulated with
synergistic-brightening actions, this revolutionary new essence will help
eliminate dark spots, dullness and discoloration.

*Clinique Derma White Micro-Motion C Serum (480 yuan)

This highly-concentrated, lightweight-gel serum is designed to visibly
reduce and help prevent the appearance of dark spots. Key ingredients are
delivered to the skin encapsulated in a sphere comprised of marine
collagen and lecithin.
