Common questions

How quickly will I see a difference?

Skin typically feels more hydrated and comfortable within the first two weeks. With consistent daily use, a visibly more even, radiant-looking tone may become apparent from around 4 weeks. A full cycle is 8–12 weeks. Results vary from person to person.

Is it suitable for sensitive skin?

Yes. Both serums are fragrance-free and dermatologically tested. If your skin is reactive, introduce the Pigment Perfecting Serum every other evening for the first two weeks.

Is it suitable for all skin tones?

Yes. The formulas use gentle, well-tolerated actives with no high-strength acids that risk post-inflammatory pigmentation.

  2. 02

    Apply

How quickly will I see a difference?+

Skin typically feels more hydrated and comfortable within the first two weeks. With consistent daily use, a visibly more even, radiant-looking tone may become apparent from around 4 weeks. A full cycle is 8–12 weeks. Results vary from person to person.

Is it suitable for sensitive skin?+

Yes. Both serums are fragrance-free and dermatologically tested. If your skin is reactive, introduce the Pigment Perfecting Serum every other evening for the first two weeks.

Is it suitable for all skin tones?+

Yes. The formulas use gentle, well-tolerated actives with no high-strength acids that risk post-inflammatory pigmentation.

Do I still need SPF?+

Absolutely. Broad-spectrum SPF 30+ every morning is the single most important step alongside the duo — pigmentation returns without sun protection.

How is it delivered?+

Every order ships tracked. Delivery options and costs are shown at checkout, based on your address and order value.

What if it's not right for me?+

You have 30 days from delivery to return any unopened product in its original seal for a full refund. For hygiene and safety reasons we're unable to accept skincare that has been opened or unsealed — the same standard applied across the industry, and the reason every CLARIYA product arrives sealed. If anything arrives damaged, faulty or not what you ordered, we'll replace it or refund you in full within 30 days and we cover return shipping. And if a formula causes an adverse reaction, contact us — we'll look after you individually, even if the product has been opened.
