Many Americans have inadequate levels of Vitamin D, a vitamin that's essential to our health. Known as the "sunshine vitamin," your body manufactures Vitamin D when you are exposed to sunlight. It is also available through the diet via fish, fish oil, egg yolks, cheese and beef liver -- and supplements. Vitamin D is essential for strong bones, a healthy cardiovascular system and mental cognition. Sunscreen blocks the production of Vitamin D through the skin. Some doctors, including Dr. Frank Lipman on Gwyneth Paltrow's site GOOP, make the controversial recommendation to go out in the sun without sunscreen for 15-30 minutes, 2-4 times a week.On the flip side, The Denver Post asked whether soaking up Vitamin D through the sun was safe. Here's what that article said: As for getting D from the sun, "It takes only a few minutes of ultraviolet light exposure...

Our friends at The Luxury Spot vouched for the power of EnPointe's Eclairci C Serum, infused with Vitamin C.

This is a question our Aesthetician, Donna, is asked all the time. Her answer?  

" Yes, Sun damage can absolutely be reversed!"

The topical Vitamin C (l-ascorbic acid) contained in EnPointe'sÉclairci C Serum is not only great at preventing further damage but it helps to lighten and brighten areas of the skin where sun damage has already occurred.

Another product that will help lighten sun damage is hydroquinone.  This is a product I don’t like to see my patients on more than 6 months at a time because it can conflict with other products so is best to use with professional supervision.

Kojic acid is another skin lightener that is more natural and will help to lift sun damage within the skin.  This is more “skin friendly” allowing the patient to remain on the product indefinitely as needed.

All of the products above are great for lightening the spots caused by sun damage,...
