All questions

How does this night cream target dark spots and uneven tone?

This formula is a "brightening powerhouse" that works while you sleep. It combines three of the most effective brightening agents: Alpha-Arbutin, Kojic Dipalmitate, and Tranexamic Acid. These ingredients work together to target the appearance of existing dark spots and sun damage. It also includes Hydroxypinacolone Retinoate (HPR) to speed up surface cell turnover, helping to reveal fresh, evenly-toned skin faster.

Is this product safe for sensitive skin?

Yes. While this cream is highly effective, it is formulated with a "barrier-first" approach. We’ve included Ceramides, Marula Oil, and Shea Butter to nourish the skin and prevent the dryness often associated with brightening treatments. However, because it contains active ingredients like HPR and Tranexamic Acid, we recommend sensitive skin types start by using it every other night to ensure comfort.

Can I use this with the Hyperpigmentation Cleanser?

Yes, this is the ideal pairing. The Hyperpigmentation Cleanser prepares the skin by gently removing dead cells with Papain and Azelaic Acid, allowing the Hyperpigmentation Night Cream to better penetrate the skin's surface. Used together, they provide a comprehensive routine for those focused on achieving a more radiant, glowing complexion.

How is this different from my personalized PROVEN Night Cream (PROVEN Pro)?

PROVEN Pro Night Cream: Is a multi-functional formula personalized by AI to address all your unique skin concerns (such as aging, hydration, and environmental stress) in one step. SkinSpecific Hyperpigmentation Night Cream: Is a specialized treatment specifically engineered to focus intensely on stubborn pigment, melasma-like spots, and post-blemish marks. It uses a concentrated blend of Arbutin and Tranexamic Acid specifically for this purpose.

Should I switch from my PROVEN Pro Night Cream to this?

If your PROVEN Pro formula is successfully managing your skin, we recommend staying with your personalized routine. However, if you are experiencing an increase in visible sun damage or dark spots that require extra attention, switching to the Hyperpigmentation Night Cream for a 3-month cycle can help "reset" your skin tone.

What is the benefit of Tranexamic Acid in this formula?

Tranexamic Acid is a superstar ingredient for those struggling with stubborn discoloration. It inhibits an enzyme called tyrosinase that is needed to create pigment in the skin. In combination with Alpha-Arbutin and Kojic Dipalmiate a multi-faceted skin-brightening approach can be acheived.

Is this product safe for pregnancy?

This formula contains Alpha-Arbutin and a Retinoid (HPR). While these are often considered gentler alternatives to other ingredients, we recommend consulting with your physician before using this product during pregnancy or while breastfeeding.
