If your face looks more tanned than the rest of you, acne has left lingering dark marks, or patches around your mouth and cheeks make your complexion look uneven, another brightening product can feel like another experiment. This bundle brings treatment and daily care together, giving you a clear morning-and-night routine to help fade excess pigmentation and restore a brighter, more even complexion.

Pigmentation involves more than just how much melanin pigment your skin produces. It also depends on how that pigment moves into surrounding skin cells and what keeps stimulating its production. That is why Powerhouse Serum combines 10% SAP Vitamin C, 4% niacinamide and 2% alpha arbutin, supported by bearberry and mulberry extracts. Alpha arbutin helps inhibit tyrosinase, the enzyme your skin uses to make melanin, while niacinamide helps reduce the transfer of pigment into surrounding skin cells. SAP is a stable vitamin C derivative that adds antioxidant and brightening support. These ingredients address different parts of the pigmentation process in one easy-to-layer serum.

At night, the Kojic Acid Glutathione Skin Brightening Cream adds complementary treatment while moisturising your skin. Its 3% kojic acid dipalmitate helps inhibit tyrosinase activity, reducing excess melanin production. This oil-soluble derivative was chosen for its stability and compatibility with a cream formula. Glutathione helps counter oxidative stress that can stimulate pigmentation. Together, these ingredients address pigment production, its triggers and its movement into surrounding cells. Glycerin, emollients and allantoin keep skin hydrated and comfortable, making the cream both your night-time brightening treatment and moisturiser.

The serum and cream therefore bring different brightening combinations to your morning and evening routine. Powerhouse combines vitamin C, alpha arbutin and niacinamide in a lightweight serum; the cream adds kojic acid dipalmitate and glutathione in a moisturising base. You get complementary treatment without having to buy and layer each brightening ingredient separately.

Gentle cleansing, barrier support and daily sun protection keep your skin comfortable while helping prevent irritation and UV exposure from undoing your brightening progress. Gentle Foaming Gel Face Wash removes daily dirt, oil and residue without leaving skin feeling stripped. Avoiding unnecessary irritation matters because irritated skin can develop further pigmentation. Invisible Shield with Centella SPF 50 PA++++ combines sun protection with moisturising care and a dewy finish, so a separate morning moisturiser may be unnecessary. Daily sunscreen helps protect your progress: UV exposure can keep stimulating new pigment while your treatments work on existing marks.

You get targeted brightening in the morning, treatment and moisturising at night, and the cleansing and protection needed around them. Each product has a clear job, making it easier to stay consistent as dark marks fade and your complexion becomes brighter and more even.

In the morning, wash with Gentle Foaming Gel Face Wash and rinse thoroughly. Apply a few drops of Powerhouse Serum to slightly damp skin, then let it absorb.

Follow with a generous, even layer of Invisible Shield SPF 50 PA++++ over your face, neck and ears. It can double as your morning moisturiser. Reapply every two hours when outdoors and after sweating or swimming.

At night, cleanse again and apply a pea-sized amount of Kojic Acid Glutathione Skin Brightening Cream in a thin layer over your face, avoiding the eye area. It can serve as both your treatment and night moisturiser.

Patch test before starting and introduce the serum and cream one at a time. If your skin is sensitive, begin on alternate days and increase to daily use as tolerated. If your skin barrier is temporarily compromised, heal your barrier before starting the routine. Keep sunscreen consistent throughout.

Gentle Foaming Gel Face Wash

Glycerin
A humectant that helps attract and hold water in the skin. In a cleanser, it helps offset the drying effect cleansing can sometimes have and contributes to a softer, more comfortable after-feel.

Allantoin
A soothing skin-conditioning ingredient that helps keep skin feeling calm and comfortable during daily cleansing — particularly useful when the rest of your routine already contains stronger actives.

Powerhouse serum 

10% Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate (SAP)
A stable, water-soluble form of Vitamin C that provides antioxidant protection while helping brighten dull skin, improve uneven tone and support the fading of dark marks.

SAP gives Powerhouse its Vitamin C benefits without relying on the more oxidation-prone low-pH L-ascorbic acid format.

4% Niacinamide
Vitamin B3 helps improve uneven pigmentation by reducing the transfer of melanin into surrounding skin cells.

It also supports the skin barrier and can help with excess oil, making it especially useful when pigmentation overlaps with acne-prone or combination skin.

2% Alpha Arbutin
A targeted pigmentation active that helps reduce excess melanin production by acting on the tyrosinase pathway.

It is particularly useful for dark spots, post-acne marks and patchy uneven pigmentation, and complements Niacinamide because the two act at different stages of the pigmentation process.

Bearberry Extract
Naturally contains arbutin-related compounds and provides supportive brightening and antioxidant activity within the formula.

Mulberry Extract
A botanical extract used for additional antioxidant and tone-supporting activity, rounding out the serum's multi-pathway approach to dullness and pigmentation

Kojic Acid Glutathione Skin Brightening Cream 

3% Kojic Acid Dipalmitate
A more oil-soluble form of Kojic Acid used to target excess melanin production and gradually improve tanning, dark spots and uneven pigmentation.

We chose Kojic Acid Dipalmitate rather than regular Kojic Acid because it is better suited to a cream formula. Regular Kojic Acid can be difficult to formulate with because it is prone to instability and colour changes from factors such as light, heat and pH. Turning it into the lipophilic dipalmitate derivative improves its compatibility with the oil phase of a cream and is widely used to improve formulation stability and delivery.

Glutathione
An antioxidant used in brightening formulas to provide an additional pathway for improving uneven skin tone and excess pigmentation. It complements Kojic Acid Dipalmitate rather than relying on a single brightening active.

Glutathione also has a naturally noticeable raw-material smell, which is one reason this fragrance-free formula may not smell like a perfumed face cream.

Niacinamide
Vitamin B3 helps improve uneven tone partly by reducing the transfer of melanin-containing pigment into surrounding skin cells. It also supports the skin barrier, making it a useful partner in a pigmentation formula where avoiding unnecessary irritation matters.

Allantoin
Helps soothe and support skin comfort, particularly useful in a treatment cream designed for regular use.

Vitamin E
Provides antioxidant support and helps condition the skin within the cream base.

Invisible Shield SPF 50 PA++++ 

Tinosorb S  and Uvinul A Plus
Photostable filters that provide broad UVA and UVB protection, with Uvinul A Plus strengthening UVA coverage.

Glycerin and Panthenol
Help attract and retain moisture, contributing to the sunscreen’s moisturising feel.

Centella Asiatica
Included for its soothing properties.

Niacinamide
Supports the skin barrier and helps improve the appearance of uneven tone over time.

Peach Fruit Extract
Adds antioxidant compounds to the formula.
