Brighter, more even skin doesn't need ten steps. This crème brightens tone and locks in moisture, simple as that.

This is a rich daily moisturiser from the Iluma collection, Image's line for uneven skin tone, age spots and discolouration. It is built around a stabilised vitamin C complex and a time-released delivery system, so the brightening actives keep working for up to 48 hours after each application. Developed by chemists with a board of physicians, it is vegan and cruelty-free.

· Helps fade the look of dark spots and brighten uneven tone.

· Rich, non-greasy finish that layers well under makeup.

· Vegan, cruelty-free and paraben-free formulation.

Vitamin C in IMAGE Iluma Crème

Vitamin C is a well-studied antioxidant that helps brighten the look of dull skin and improve the appearance of uneven tone. It is also unstable once exposed to air and light, so IMAGE uses stabilised forms here rather than one that degrades quickly. The actives get released gradually, which is why the brightening effect keeps building between applications instead of fading within hours, and why it justifies stepping up from a high-street cream.

The Key Ingredients in IMAGE Iluma Crème & What They Do

· Botanical brightening blend: A blend of plant extracts, including daisy flower and turmeric extract, that help to reduce dark spots and promote more even-toned skin.

· Ascorbic acid: A potent form of vitamin C that helps to brighten dull skin.

· Methyl Undecylenoyl Dipeptide-16: A targeted peptide that helps to give the skin a youthful, radiant glow.

· Sea buckthorn oil: A rich natural oil that moisturizes the skin.

IMAGE Iluma Crème for Dark Spots & Uneven Tone

This crème suits skin with visible discolouration, whether age spots, sun-related marks or general unevenness. The cream-gel texture absorbs quickly without a greasy finish, so it works as a daily step for anyone whose main concern is patchiness rather than dryness alone. Because the actives are time-released, consistent daily use over several weeks is what delivers a visibly more even-looking tone.

IMAGE Iluma: Professional-Grade, Vegan Skincare

IMAGE formulas are developed by chemists with a board of physicians, and this crème meets IMAGE's Clean Clinical Skincare standard of no parabens, synthetic dyes or animal testing. It is a firm favourite in Irish salons and clinics, often recommended by skin therapists alongside in-clinic brightening treatments.

1. Apply morning and evening to cleansed skin on your face and neck.

2. Use a pea-sized amount and massage in until fully absorbed.

3. Layer after a serum such as the Iluma Brightening Serum for a stronger effect.

4. Follow with SPF every morning to protect the results.

5. Can be used every day; no need to build up gradually.

Where IMAGE Iluma Crème Fits in Your Routine

This crème sits at the moisturise step. Cleanse first, follow with a brightening serum if you use one, then apply this crème to seal it in. In the morning finish with SPF; in the evening it can be used alone or under a richer night cream if skin runs dry.

What to Expect from IMAGE Iluma Brightening Crème

Skin often feels smoother and looks brighter within the first couple of weeks. Visible fading of dark spots and a more even-looking tone builds gradually over 8 to 12 weeks of consistent use, since that reflects skin's natural renewal cycle. Professional-grade brightening rewards patience rather than delivering overnight change. As this crème works on pigmentation, daily SPF is what protects the results; new sun exposure can trigger fresh discolouration faster than the crème can fade the old marks.

Products That Pair Well With IMAGE Iluma Crème

· Iluma Brightening Serum underneath, for a stronger combined effect.

· Iluma Exfoliating Powder a few times a week, to help the crème absorb.

· A broad-spectrum SPF every morning, the most important step for protecting results.

A Note on Sensitive Skin & Pregnancy

This crème is generally well tolerated, but anyone with a diagnosed skin condition, or who is pregnant or breastfeeding, should check with their pharmacist or GP first. Patch test on a small area if skin reacts easily.

FYI: IMAGE Iluma Intense Brightening Crème
