Age spots (also called sun spots or solar lentigines) are flat, tan to brown patches that often show on the face and hands over time. They are common, harmless and closely linked to cumulative sun exposure. If a mark is new, changing, itchy, bleeding or looks unusual, seek medical advice straight away. For cosmetic age spots that make skin look uneven, a gentle, consistent routine can help soften their appearance and support a brighter-looking complexion.
These gentle steps are often chosen as natural remedies for age spots, helping skin look brighter over time without harsh treatments.
When skin is exposed to ultraviolet (UV) light, it produces more melanin as protection. With repeated exposure, small clumps of pigment can build up and appear as darker patches. This is more likely after midlife as skin’s renewal rhythm slows. Genetics, hormones and past sun habits all play a role, but daily protection now is one of the most effective steps you can take for a more even look.
Sun safety matters year-round in the UK. Use a broad-spectrum SPF 30+ with high UVA protection, reapply as directed and don’t forget the backs of hands and the neck. See practical guidance here: NHS Sunscreen & Sun Safety.

There is no instant fix for uneven tone, but the combination below is widely used in gentle routines. Introduce changes slowly, patch test first and use sun protection daily—especially when adding exfoliants or evening oils aimed at photo-ageing concerns.
Certified Organic Rosehip Oil (INCI: Rosa Canina Seed Oil) is naturally rich in essential fatty acids and provitamin A (retinoid precursors). Used consistently, it helps skin feel supple and can soften the look of uneven tone over time while supporting a comfortable barrier—especially useful for drier, mature skin.

Niacinamide (vitamin B3) is a versatile active used to reduce the look of uneven pigmentation while supporting the skin barrier—ideal in pro-age routines. It’s generally well-tolerated and fits easily into morning or evening care.
Daytime pick with niacinamide: Rejuvenate Day Natural Moisturizer.

Bakuchiol (INCI: Bakuchiol) is a plant-derived option chosen in routines targeting photo-ageing concerns and uneven tone with a comfort-first approach. Many people prefer bakuchiol because it layers easily in the evening and pairs well with barrier-supporting moisturisers.

Regular, non-abrasive exfoliation helps lift dull surface cells and can make targeted steps (oils and serums) work more effectively. Mature or sensitive skin usually prefers a softer approach once or twice a week, avoiding gritty scrubs or mixing multiple strong acids at once. Remember - you are gently removing layers of skin - don't overdo it!
Choose a fragrance-free, comfort-focused formula: Rejuvenate Exfoliator.

A well-layering morning serum can support a brighter-looking complexion without heaviness. Our award-winning Rejuvenate Anti Aging Serum fits easily between cleanse and moisturise, making it a practical step for daily routines aimed at softening the look of uneven tone.
Comfortable, hydrated skin looks brighter. A mild, non-stripping cleanser and a non-greasy moisturiser help actives sit well on the skin, reducing the temptation to over-exfoliate or over-layer.
Adapt this simple structure to your skin. If you’re sensitive, add changes one at a time and keep a skin diary for two to four weeks.
It varies. With a steady routine that includes brightening steps and SPF, many people notice a more even look over weeks to months. The key is patience and consistency—apply products as directed and protect skin from the sun every day.
Yes, when used carefully. Start low and slow a couple of evenings a week. Skip exfoliation if skin feels tight or stingy, and never combine multiple strong exfoliants in the same routine.
Topical routines help soften the look of dark marks over time. Some people choose professional treatments such as light or laser. Always consult a qualified practitioner to understand suitability, costs and aftercare.
If something is new, changing, itchy or bleeding, get it checked promptly. It is important to distinguish harmless cosmetic age spots from other skin conditions that may require medical care.
