Urban Skin Rx®, an unparalleled line of clinical skincare products, was developed by Rachel Roff, a highly successful Licensed Aesthetician. In 2006 Rachel opened her own medical spa, in Charlotte, NC, and it quickly became the leading medical spa and laser center for treating melanin-rich skin. Through her experience working on clients, Rachel learned which ingredients and formulations most effectively improved common conditions in skin of color, including hyperpigmentation and melasma. Recognizing the wide unmet need for products to address the concerns of diverse skin tones, Rachel founded Urban Skin Rx® in 2010. Urban Skin Rx® and Pro Strength™ collections include effective, targeted solutions with scientifically researched ingredients to help reduce the appearance of dark marks and uneven skin tone. The brand also offers additional products that smooth texture, reduce the visible signs of aging and fight acne and dry skin. Urban Skin Rx® is sold online at urbanskinrx.com and at Target, Ulta, Walmart, Amazon, CVS, QVC.com, HSN.com and Dermstore.com. In 2020, the brand launched its first international distribution in Nigeria.

How To Use
After cleansing, apply to the full face, avoiding the eye area. Begin by applying every other night. After 2-3 weeks, increase to applying every night if tolerated. It is normal for skin dryness and peeling to occur for the first 2-3 weeks of use. If experiencing irritation, reduce application to every third night and gradually increase to every other night. Always follow with a moisturizer. To target specific dark spots, alternate every other application between the full face and spot treating. In the daytime, always protect skin with a broad spectrum SPF 30 or higher and limit sun exposure while using this product.

FAQs
Is the Retinol Rapid Repair & Dark Spot Treatment only to be used at night?
We recommend this product only be used at night since it contains Retinol and other ingredients that make your skin more sensitive to the sun. Make sure to wear an SPF of 30 or higher during the day.
What is the difference between the Even Tone Night Treatment and the Retinol Rapid Repair & Dark Spot Treatment?
The Even Tone Night Treatment is larger in size, and contains 2% Hydroquinone, Kojic Acid and Retinol. This product is suitable for all skin types.
Retinol Rapid Repair & Dark Spot Treatment is a Hydroquinone-free formula designed to visibly improve uneven skin tone. It contains Retinol, Niacinamide and Kojic Acid. We do not recommend sensitive skin types use this treatment.
Both products are effective for improving the appearance of uneven skin tone!
Do I put this product on my full face or just the dark spots?
This product should be used on the entire face to avoid blotches from spot treatments; however, if marks are especially stubborn, you can alternate between spot treating and applying to the full face.
Are your products tested on animals?
No. We take pride in being a cruelty-free company!
