The primary purpose of Venusia Moisturising Cream is to protect the skin barrier and lessen dryness. When applied properly, it does not typically result in skin darkening, but it also typically does not eliminate black pigmentation or dark areas on its own. Treatment for facial pigmentation depends on the specific cause, which can include sun exposure, acne scars, allergies, hormonal changes, or inflammation. Further darkening can be avoided by using sunscreen on a regular basis, avoiding harsh lotions, and not touching the skin.
