儘管氣候多變難測，一到春季就推出的美白新品，依舊準時如雨後春筍般紛紛上市。呼應現實情況，聚焦環境影響是年度保養趨勢，加上回歸肌膚根本的白皙方針，都是重返光彩閃耀的美顏重點，也成為2024年的肌膚美白關鍵。
Despite the unpredictable weather changes, new whitening products are being launched promptly as spring arrives. Like the current environmental concerns, the focus on environmental impact is a yearly skincare trend. Coupled with the return of achieving fair and radiant skin, the following aspects are the key to regaining luminosity and radiance, and the cornerstone of skin whitening in 2024.

打擊環害

透亮肌膚只要缺乏堅實屏障，暗黑勢力很快就能摧毀成果，而固守白皙的可靠力量，便是隔離防曬這面盾牌。肌膚的亮白威脅，已不限紫外線、電子產品等「光害」影響，「環害」才是當今容易被忽略的白皙殺手。空氣汙染、漂浮在周圍的懸浮粒子等，一旦與紫外線結合，對肌膚逐漸造成發炎現象，接著便是老化等連鎖反應，暗沉、斑點就是肉眼可見的第一步。VALMONT以「煥白造光系列」富含七種植物萃取的「鑽石植物精萃複方」，明亮膚色；兩種耕種方法的白桑果精粹結合，改善蠟黃；「三離子DNA」，補充肌膚所需養分，保濕修護，加上結合物理與化學性防曬成分，為臉部打造最堅實的光彩堡壘。

Combatting Environmental Damage

In order to achieve radiant skin, a solid barrier is essential to fend off outer forces that can quickly destroy results. Sunscreen provides a shield that maintains the fairness of the skin. Our skin is no longer simply damaged from factors like UV rays and electronic devices, environmental damage also plays a role as air pollution, airborne particles, and other pollutants, when combined with UV rays, gradually causes inflammation, leading to aging and other chain reactions like dullness and dark spots. VALMONT’s Luminosity Collection, enriched with a “Diamond Plant Extract Complex” comprising seven botanical extracts, brightens the skin’s complexion. The combination of white mulberry extracts grown using two cultivation methods improves sallowness, and the “Triple DNA” replenishes the skin’s needs, providing moisture and repair. Additionally, incorporating both physical and chemical sunscreen ingredients, it creates the most solid fortress of radiance.

勻淨透亮

針對保養市場趨勢，不再一味聚焦變白幾個色階，或者淡化斑點的單一訴求，展現均勻、純淨、透亮的肌膚質感，是今年美白的重要焦點。向來在蜜蜂實驗室（Bee Lab）鑽研的GUERLAIN嬌蘭研究中心，以來自夏威夷島的白蜂蜜，結合維他命C衍生物與自然複合酸AHA1，協助改善膚色不均。重塑剛洗完臉、透著均勻光澤的水潤美感，AESOP用維他命C、補水保濕及來自植物萃取的複合成分，協助肌膚平衡、均勻提亮膚色。歐舒丹2024年升級推出的「白皇后光蘊透白系列」，以經日本厚生省 QD認證的繡線菊美白核心成份，結合日本柑橘精萃等全新配方，強化肌膚屏障，實現自然煥亮的滿面春光。

Clear and Radiant

The focus of the skincare market is no longer solely on making skin a few shades lighter or fading dark spots; instead, emphasis is placed on achieving even skin that is both pure and radiant. GUERLAIN, renowned for its research at the Bee Lab, utilizes white bee honey from Hawaii, and combines it with vitamin C derivatives, and natural complex AHA1 in order to improve uneven skin tone. AESOP delivers the dewy sensation of freshly washed face using vitamin C, hydrating moisturizers, and a composite of botanical extracts to balance and brighten the skin tone. L’OCCITANE’s Reine Des Prés Collection for 2024 incorporates whitening core ingredients certified by the Japanese Ministry of Health, Labor, and Welfare, along with new ingredients like Japanese citrus extracts to strengthen the skin barrier and achieve a naturally radiant complexion.

白皙能量

如果把肌膚比喻成燈泡，那麼亮白能量的來源，便是ATP（Adenosine Triphosphate）三磷酸腺苷，由它提供細胞循環代謝動能。沒有充足的ATP能量，就少了電力來源，肌膚會逐漸黯淡無光，並逐步產生一連串包括屏障受損、敏感、瑕疵等種種問題。以「8水2油」保養比例，掀起亞洲華人圈網路熱潮的JULIQUE茱莉蔻，全新「賦活再生發光系列」五款品項，均含有以源自茱莉蔻農莊獨家培育的4款植萃「高肌能複合物」，協助提升「抬肌電」ATP，修護與改善膚況，讓細緻光感重回臉龐。

Brightening Power

If our skin were a light bulb, the source of energy would come from the ATP (Adenosine Triphosphate), as it provides cellular energy for our metabolism. Without sufficient ATP energy, our skin lacks power and gradually becomes dull and lifeless, leading to various issues such as barrier damage, sensitivity, and blemishes.

JULIQUE, which has sparked an online sensation in the Asian community with its “8 Water 2 Oil” skincare ratio, introduces the new Herbal Recovery Collection consisting of five products. Each product contains a unique blend of four plant-derived “high-cellular-energy complexes” cultivated exclusively from JULIQUE’s farm. These complexes help boost ATP production, repair, and improve skin condition, restoring a delicate luminosity to the complexion.
