Dermatologist Dr. Heather Woolery-Lloyd saw a need for skincare
products to help with hyperpigmentation for her darker-complexioned
clients, and the Specific Beauty brand was born.

While breakouts, skin irritation, aging,
and sun exposure can be damaging to any skin type, melanin-rich skin
tends to be much more likely to retain dark spots and an uneven skintone
after these occurences. However, dermatologist Dr. Heather
Woolery-Lloyd found that after over 15 years of helping clients in her
private Miami office, the world of skincare was still severely lacking
in products that worked to help with hyperpigmentation for her patients
of color. Using her expertise and experiences, Woolery-Lloyd created a
line of skin care products, called Specific Beauty,
specially formulated for women of color trying to reduce
hyperpigmentation in their skin, and it's definitely filling a hole in
the beauty industry.
"The primary concern for multi-hued
women is uneven skin tone, hyperpigmentation, and texture," Dr.
Woolery-Lloyd explains on the Specific Beauty website.
"I formulated Specific Beauty for all women of color. If you're Latina,
African-American, from the Middle East, if you're Mediterranean, if you
have tan, olive, or brown skin, Specific Beauty is for you."

Because of her belief that flawless skin
comes from a multi-faceted approach, Dr. Woolery-Lloyed included eight
skin-perfecting products in the Specific Beauty collection. Each formula
includes a blend of natural and scientific ingredients to help
exfoliate, smooth, fade the appearance of dark spots, and create a more
even skintone. And while there's no doubt that her daily gentle cleanser ($18) and eye cream ($45) are top of the line, the real game changer is the four-piece "Live Even Brighter" system ($139).
[post_ads]The process starts with an Intensive Skin Brightening Serum ($50) made with licorice root extract and retinol. This is followed with the Advanced Dark Spot Corrector Pads
($57) that contain exfoliating ingredients like kojic acid, licorice
root and bearberry extracts, and damage-preventing Vitamin C. The Active Radiance Day Moisture SPF 30 ($40) comes next, finished off with the Accelerated Dark Spot Corrector ($30), infused with 2% hydroquinone to speed up the process of fading those dark spots!
While you can purchase each of the
products from the Live Even Brighter set separately, it is meant to be
used consistently and as an entire set each time you cleanse your face.
And with their 60-day money back guarantee, it's obvious they stand
behind the fact that customers should receive noticeable results within
the first two weeks.
"I was
motivated to create a range that was meant for all women," says Dr.
Woolery-Lloyd. "The goal of Specific Beauty is to make women feel good
not only on the outside but on the inside as well."
We
all know what the feeling of having a bright and radiant complexion can
do to boost our confidence levels, and Specific Beauty is giving even
more women the chance to experience just that.
