What Are Pigmentation and Hyperpigmentation?
Pigmentation refers to the colouring of the skin caused by melanin production. It's a natural part of the skin's appearance. Hyperpigmentation, however, is the darkening of an area of skin caused by increased melanin. This results in spots or patches that are darker than the surrounding skin, often due to factors like sun exposure, hormonal changes (such as during pregnancy or due to birth control pills), certain medications, and inflammation or injury to the skin (like acne scars or melasma). This can occur in small patches, cover large areas, or affect the entire body.

Select the right serum or cream for pigmentation on your face by understanding their ingredients and functions.
Moisturizers for Even Skin Tone
Our moisturizers for even skin tone utilise a variety of key ingredients to target pigmentation and hyperpigmentation. Ingredients such as hexapeptide-5, lipids and polyglutamic acid help to strengthen your skin’s moisture barrier. Oat and cucumber extracts soothe the skin, while hyaluronic acid and apricot oil deeply moisturize. In some products, aloe extract, green tea, and willow bark extract are included for their calming and exfoliating properties and lightweight hydration, enhancing the skin's natural radiance.
Even Tone Correcting Serums
Depending on your needs, you can consider even tone correcting serums featuring ingredients like bakuchiol, tranexamic acid, and niacinamide. Bakuchiol and tranexamic acid are known for their ability to target unwanted colour changes and reduce dark spots on the face, while niacinamide aims to even out skin tone. The inclusion of SPF 30 in certain products further protects the skin from further sun-induced pigmentation.
Brightening Serums and Creams
Each skin brightening cream and serum in our collection is formulated with a unique blend of ingredients targeting pigmentation and hyperpigmentation. Notably, vitamin C serums, with the core ingredient being a potent antioxidant, offer skin-brightening effects, working together with hexapeptide-5 to enhance overall luminosity. The combination of bakuchiol, niacinamide and tranexamic acid, paired with Vitamin E and milk thistle, helps reduce the appearance of dark spots on the face.
