00:01Hey, Essence family.
00:02I'm Darian Simone, beauty reporter,
00:03and I am here with Dr. Angela Lamb, esteemed dermatologist
00:07and an expert on all things skin care.
00:10In partnership with Juergens, we are going
00:12to explore all of the beautiful benefits of the Juergens
00:15Deep Conditioning Shea and Cocoa Butter Blend.
00:18Working with your uneven skin tone,
00:20looking for a moisturizer that is deeply enriching
00:23and also helps to fade and also even skin within four weeks,
00:29this is where Juergens comes in for me.
00:31So melanated patients come to me with a primary concern
00:35of uneven skin tone, and that can be from a variety
00:38of reasons, acne, eczema, psoriasis,
00:42even some of the other underlying conditions.
00:44Even once we get those clear and resolved,
00:47you have some post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation,
00:50which is basically darkness that's left over
00:53after some kind of injury.
00:54So even like an insect bite or a cut can leave you
00:57with a dark mark after it's healed.
00:59They're often looking for things that are gonna clear up
01:02their skin and get their complexion back how it was.
01:05So first let's try it out a little bit.
01:08I love the light scent.
01:10It's one of my favorites.
01:11It smells beautiful.
01:12It's not overpowering.
01:14It's light, but it's also incredibly luxurious and hydrating.
01:19And to me, this is such a multi-purpose moisturizer.
01:22I feel that this really penetrates.
01:24No, definitely, it has that penetration and it doesn't sit on the skin
01:28because in order for it to work, it really has to penetrate
01:31through the top layer and this really accomplishes that.
01:34And it's clinically proven to moisturize your skin for 24 hours.
01:38Also has some really great ingredients in there.
01:41You have the cocoa butter, you have the shea.
01:43It has that vitamin E.
01:44All of those things really work over time to improve
01:48and clear up your pigment.
01:49This would be something that while your skin is healing from a skin condition
01:54or just on a daily basis to prevent that ashy appearance,
01:57not only is it great for a pigment, but it's great for like the rough elbows
02:01and actually the dryness that we're going into with the fall and the winter.
02:05And I think they've really hit it out of the park with this one.
02:08Oh, this is great.
02:09Yes.
02:10Yeah.
02:11It's one of my favorites.
02:12Dr. Lim, you have done it once again.
02:15Every time I'm with you, I learn so much.
02:17Thank you for your insight and advice.
02:19It was my pleasure.
02:20And thank you to our partners at Jergens.
02:22Until next time, I'm Darian Simone.
02:25Continue to be beautiful ladies.
