How to Get Rid of Freckles for GoodThose freckles are actually sun damage, but don't worry — here's what you can do to erase them |
Get Rid of Freckles With Antioxidants While antioxidants are more about prevention, some will also help get rid of freckles. "They can undo the free-radical damage," says Mariwalla. "I recommend a topical vitamin C serum layered under sunscreen. It's a sunscreen booster, and it helps lighten skin tone."
PCA Skin C&E Strength Max, $94, contains 20 percent L-ascorbic acid (vitamin C) -- the highest percentage available. And it's extremely stable. (Many vitamin C products don't have a very long shelf life.) If you're looking for a serum that addresses a wide range of skin issues, try Philosophy No Reason to Hide Multi Imperfection Transforming Serum, $68. It contains vitamin C and niacinamide for brightening as well as salicylic acid to smooth texture and a form of chamomile to calm irritation.
