Anyone fears the sun?! Like me (见光死) hahaha!
Especially when UV exposure damages your skin resulting in photoaging,
age spots, freckles and uneven skin tone!
There are specifically two main reasons behind dark spots formation, freckles and age spots.
1) External factors e.g. frequent exposure to the sun cause skin to be dry and dull,
which increases melanin activity in the skin, thus leading to the formation of dark spots and freckles.
2) Internal problem of existing pigments and spots that are embedded deep within the skin
that cannot be treated and prevented with any amount of sunblock.
Bio-essence has recently introduced products in the new Tanaka White range, with the intention of preventing/ treating darkness caused by these two factors. Sharing with you guys 2 products today, Tanaka White 4X Intensive White Serum and Tanaka White Double Whitening Cream SPF20.

Review (for both products)
I got my mum to try out both products as well since she has dark spots/ pigmentations on her skin and that's the main thing that the products claim to do- ligten. She applied the 4X Intensive White Serum twice a day and Double Whitening Cream once a day. I've included before and after pictures below for you guys see the difference. Pictures were both taken at the same place & at night.
Personally I'd say there aint much difference. It might be because the pigmentation has been there for very long and hence, requires more time in this case. Whitening, in general, can be seen more clearly in the pictures above. I've tried using the product to test out on the "brightens complexion" part. Unfortunately, my T-zone has been pretty oily due to the hot and humid weather recently & because the product is really rich and moisturizing, I had a breakout on my forehead and couldn't test it out in the end.
