Free skin analysis in Palmera: dark spot campaign
Free skin analysis in Palmera: dark spot campaign
Until 31 October, come to Farmacia Sendra and let us take a close look at your skin. We'll do a free skin analysis, explain what your skin needs and help you put together a dark spot routine that makes sense for you.
And if you take home two products from your dark spot routine, we'll give you the facial sunscreen that best suits your skin, free of charge.
What is a skin analysis?
It's a skin check we carry out at the pharmacy with a digital microscope. The device magnifies the surface of the skin and lets us see things that go unnoticed to the naked eye:
- skin texture and pore size,
- how hydrated your skin looks,
- dark spots and how they're distributed,
- the most sensitive or reactive areas.
Based on what we see, we explain in plain words what's going on with your skin and what it needs. It takes a few minutes, it's free and there's no obligation to buy anything.
Why do it in autumn?
Because that's when summer dark spots become visible and, at the same time, when almost everyone puts their sunscreen away in a drawer. That's exactly the opposite of what your skin needs:
- Dark spots build up over time. The ones you see now have been forming with the sun of recent months, and of previous summers.
- The sun doesn't go away in October. UVA rays, the ones with the biggest impact on dark spots and skin ageing, pass through clouds and windows all year round.
- Treating without protecting doesn't work. A dark spot product or one with retinol needs sunscreen every morning. Without it, it loses effectiveness and the spot can come back darker.
That's why autumn is the best time to start caring for dark spots: treatment works better when the sun is less intense, as long as you keep up the protection.
Your dark spot routine in three steps
- Cleanse. Clean skin makes better use of everything you apply afterwards.
- Treat. Active ingredients that help fade dark spots and even out skin tone, chosen according to your skin type and sensitivity.
- Protect. Broad-spectrum sunscreen every morning, in autumn and winter too. It's the step that makes the other two work.
There's no need to fill your bathroom with products. We'll only suggest what your skin actually needs.
Your sunscreen, on us
During the campaign, if you take home two products from your dark spot routine, we'll give you a facial sunscreen for free. Not just any one: we choose it with you, according to your skin type. While stocks last.
What a skin analysis is, and what it isn't
A skin analysis is a dermocosmetic advice service: it helps you get to know your skin and look after it better. It is not a substitute for a medical consultation.
If during the check we notice a mole that has changed shape, colour or size, or any lesion that isn't cosmetic, we'll tell you and recommend that your doctor or dermatologist takes a look. And if you're following a medical treatment for your skin, we respect it and adapt our advice accordingly.

Frequently asked questions
Does the skin analysis cost anything?
No. It's free and you don't have to buy anything.
How long does it take?
A few minutes. We just need to look at the area that concerns you and talk it through with you.
Should I come without make-up?
It's better if you do, so we can see your skin as it really is. If you're wearing make-up, we can check another area, such as the back of your hand or your neckline.
Is it suitable if I have sensitive or spot-prone skin?
Yes. The advice is tailored to your skin type. If you're under medical treatment for acne, we take it into account and, if needed, refer you to a dermatologist.
Do dark spots fade on their own in winter?
They may lighten a little, but they don't disappear on their own. And if you go back into the sun without protection, they come back. That's why it's best to treat and protect them at the same time.
Which sunscreen do I get for free?
A facial one, chosen according to your skin type. We have several options and we pick it with you. While stocks last.
