In your skin-care routine.<\/p>\n<h2>The benefits of chlorophyll for skin<\/h2>\n<p>Chlorophyll is a green pigment found in plants, algae, and cyanobacteria. It&#8217;s essential in photosynthesis, AKA the process through which plants absorb energy from light. It&#8217;s packed with antioxidants, plus vitamins A, C, E, and K, which means its benefits extend beyond plant health and into skin health.<\/p>\n<hr\/>\n<hr\/>\n<h3>Ingredient breakdown:<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Vitamin A:\u00a0Stimulates cellular turnover<\/li>\n<li>Vitamin C:\u00a0Brightens skin<\/li>\n<li>Vitamin K:\u00a0Fights discoloration<\/li>\n<li>Vitamin E:\u00a0Moisturizes<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>\u201cChlorophyll has antioxidant properties and therefore can help to reduce damage from free radicals,\u201d says <a href=\"https:\/\/www.drhadleyking.com\/\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" rel=\"sponsored\" data-vars-event=\"body text\" data-vars-click-url=\"https:\/\/www.drhadleyking.com\/\">Hadley King, MD<\/a>, a board-certified dermatologist specializing in medical and cosmetic dermatology. \u201cThis can make it a part of an anti-aging regimen and could improve signs of skin aging.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Additionally, Harold Lancer, MD, board-certified dermatologist and founder of <a href=\"https:\/\/clicks.trx-hub.com\/xid\/leafgroup_ca5e0_wellgood?q=https%3A%2F%2Fgo.skimresources.com%3Fid%3D104860X1561639%26xs%3D1%26xcust%3DSTMSBT-319890%26url%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Fwww.lancerskincare.com%252F&amp;p=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.wellandgood.com%2Fchrolophyll-for-skin%2F&amp;event_type=click\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" rel=\"sponsored\" data-vars-event=\"body text\" data-vars-click-url=\"https:\/\/www.lancerskincare.com\/\">Lancer Skincare<\/a>, points to research that has shown the ingredient can treat various skin concerns, including acne and sun damage, as well as inflammatory skin conditions like rosacea and psoriasis.

There have been small and limited studies conducted so far on the efficacy of chlorophyll in skincare compared to those on ingredients like <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wellandgood.com\/niacinamide-benefits-for-skin\/\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" data-vars-event=\"body text\" data-vars-click-url=\"https:\/\/www.wellandgood.com\/niacinamide-benefits-for-skin\/\">niacinamide<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.wellandgood.com\/hyaluronic-acid-for-hydrated-skin\/\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" data-vars-event=\"body text\" data-vars-click-url=\"https:\/\/www.wellandgood.com\/hyaluronic-acid-for-hydrated-skin\/\">hyaluronic acid<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h2>How to use chlorophyll for skin<\/h2>\n<p>Generally speaking, you&#8217;ll find chlorophyll popping up in moisturizers, masks, eye creams, mists, and serums. According to Dr. Lancer, the ingredient is safe for most skin types, but those with sensitive skin should proceed with caution.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIndividuals who don\u2019t wear sunscreen should avoid chlorophyll as it causes photosensitivity in the skin much like a retinol does,\u201d Lancer advises. \u201cThose who are also very sensitive should be aware of this ingredient as high doses can cause itching and burning sensations in the skin.\u201d<\/p>\n<h2>What happened when I added chlorophyll for skin to my routine<\/h2>\n<p>After learning about the benefits of chlorophyll, especially for the skin, I was eager to try out the newest chlorophyll product to hit the market: <a href=\"https:\/\/clicks.trx-hub.com\/xid\/leafgroup_ca5e0_wellgood?q=https%3A%2F%2Fshareasale.com%2Fr.cfm%3Fb%3D999%26u%3D2520112%26m%3D93043%26afftrack%3DSTMSBT-1104483%26urllink%3Dwww.cocokind.com%252Fproducts%252Fchlorophyll-discoloration-serum&amp;p=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.wellandgood.com%2Fchrolophyll-for-skin%2F&amp;event_type=click\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" rel=\"sponsored\" data-vars-event=\"body text\" data-vars-click-url=\"https:\/\/www.cocokind.com\/products\/chlorophyll-discoloration-serum\">Cocokind Chlorophyll Discoloration Serum<\/a> ($20).<\/p>\n<p>The brand claims that the serum helps reduce the appearance of discoloration, redness, post-blemish marks, and signs of UV damage. Additionally, since it\u2019s formulated with vitamin B5 (a moisturizer), alpha arbutin, and licorice root (two skin-brightening ingredients), this serum takes chlorophyll&#8217;s skin-loving properties to the next level.<\/p>\n<p>In addition to having a smooth feel, the serum had a refreshing botanical fragrance and although it looks green initially it doesn\u2019t leave any traces behind\u2014that is, aside from a natural-looking glow. Per the brand&#8217;s directions, I applied it in the morning and at night for a week, and I definitely noticed a difference in the texture of my skin. What&#8217;s more, I found the serum diminished the appearance of my skin&#8217;s usual redness\u2014it was still there, but definitely wasn&#8217;t as prominent as it normally is.\u00a0I also used the serum on a dark spot that recently popped up after a pimple left me with post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, and after a week noticed it had lightened significantly.<\/p>\n<h2>Shop chlorophyll for skin<\/h2>\n<div class=\"theme-main-2020\">\n<div class=\"wg-inline-shopable\">\n<div class=\"pb-[20px] sm:pb-[35px] sm:flex justify-between\">\n<div class=\"w-full\">\n<figure class=\"block w-full wg-inline-shopable__figure p-0 m-0 mb-[25px]\"> <a data-vars-event=\"product image\" data-vars-info=\"Perricone+MD%2C+Chlorophyll+Detox+Mask\" href=\"https:\/\/clicks.trx-hub.com\/xid\/leafgroup_ca5e0_wellgood?q=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.com%2FPerricone-MD-Chlorophyll-Detox-Mask%2Fdp%2FB08CWMCF7B%3Ftag%3Dwgtrx11324-20%26asc_refurl%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Fwww.wellandgood.com%252Fchrolophyll-for-skin%252F%26asc_source%3Ddirect%26asc_campaign%3Dno-campaign&amp;p=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.wellandgood.com%2Fchrolophyll-for-skin%2F&amp;event_type=click\" target=\"_blank\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" rel=\"sponsored noopener\" data-vars-click-url=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Perricone-MD-Chlorophyll-Detox-Mask\/dp\/B08CWMCF7B\"> <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.wellandgood.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/51kFfjHdosL._SL1000__falsexfalse_true_70.webp\" class=\"block w-full no-pin\" alt=\"\"\/> <\/a><figcaption class=\"text-center text-caption--article text-gray-light block mt-[10px]\"\/> <\/figure>\n<p> <a href=\"https:\/\/clicks.trx-hub.com\/xid\/leafgroup_ca5e0_wellgood?q=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.com%2FPerricone-MD-Chlorophyll-Detox-Mask%2Fdp%2FB08CWMCF7B%3Ftag%3Dwgtrx11324-20%26asc_refurl%3Dhttps%253A%252F%252Fwww.wellandgood.com%252Fchrolophyll-for-skin%252F%26asc_source%3Ddirect%26asc_campaign%3Dno-campaign&amp;p=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.wellandgood.com%2Fchrolophyll-for-skin%2F&amp;event_type=click\" class=\"wg-inline-shopable__subtitle-link\" data-vars-event=\"product name\" data-vars-info=\"Perricone+MD%2C+Chlorophyll+Detox+Mask\" referrerpolicy=\"no-referrer-when-downgrade\" rel=\"sponsored\" data-vars-click-url=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Perricone-MD-Chlorophyll-Detox-Mask\/dp\/B08CWMCF7B\"> <\/p>\n<p>Perricone MD, Chlorophyll Detox Mask \u2014 $69.00<\/p>\n<p> <\/a> <\/p>\n<div class=\"text-big mb-[5px] wg-inline-shopable__content mt-[10px]\">\n<p>This mask harnesses chlorophyll\u2019s anti-bacterial properties, which helps detoxify pores.
