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.

What is it?
Uneven skin tone, fine lines, and dark spots dulling your glow? This mini set including mini versions of our LacticGlow Micropolish Cleanser and Retinol Rapid Repair has you covered! Our LacticGlow Micropolish Resurface & Brighten Cleanser is formulated with a special blend of Alpha Hydroxy Acids, including Lactic Acid, Citric Acid and Malic Acid, and Jojoba beads to gently cleanse and polish skin without irritation - revealing a brighter, fresher and healthier-looking complexion. This smoothing and brightening formula improves the look of rough texture and blemishes, and is gentle enough to use twice a day. Use this daily cleanser to clarify skin tone, exfoliate, and accelerate your skin's natural renewal process.
Our Retinol Rapid Repair & Dark Spot Treatment is a dark spot’s worst enemy and your new bestie if you struggle with annoying or stubborn skin discolorations. The secret weapon in this formula is of course, Retinol, which goes to work to exfoliate and enhance the look of skin tone, texture, breakouts and post-breakout marks and get you on the road to smooth, glowing skin. There’s also Kojic Acid to target hyperpigmentation and 5% Niacinamide to improve the look of dark spots, aging skin, and redness caused by skin irritants. Also features our ClearTone Advanced Technology® that works overtime to reveal a healthier and more even-looking complexion. This is one powerful dark spot busting treatment!
To cleanse, splash skin with warm water. Apply a dime-size amount of this lightweight gel cleanser and massage it onto moist skin for 1 to 2 minutes to let the microbeads work their gentle exfoliating magic. Rinse thoroughly with warm water and gently pat your skin dry. Your skin will feel smoother and look brighter after just one use!
After cleansing, apply Retinol Rapid Repair & Dark Spot Treatment 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. You can even use this treatment to target specific dark spots by alternating every other application between the full face and directly to the dark spot itself. And because dryness is normal, it is essential to always follow with a moisturizer. In the daytime, always protect skin with a broad spectrum SPF 30 or higher and limit sun exposure while using this product.
This trio includes:
1x Mini LacticGlow Micropolish Resurface & Brighten Cleanser 1 fl oz
2x Mini Retinol Rapid Repair & Dark Spot Treatment 0.5 fl oz each
Aesthetician Tip: If just starting out or your skin is dryer, we recommend mixing this formula with a moisturizer to dilute the strength. We suggest using our Even Tone Barrier Repair Ceramide Cream.
Who Should Use
Anyone who wishes to improve the appearance of uneven skin tone, dark marks, sun damage and signs of aging, blemishes, skin texture and pore size. We don’t recommend this product for sensitive skin types.
