- Patchy darkness on temples, cheeks, forehead or upper lip
- Symmetrical (both sides)
- Worse with sun, heat, pregnancy or contraception
- Little or no acne
The goal: Protect from light every day; fade slowly; expect months and maintenance.
What to expect
- Months, not weeks: 3–6 months for real change
- Comes back without daily sunscreen
- Maintenance is part of the plan
How often: Very sensitive skin starts with one calming step for 2–4 weeks before the fading step is added. Sunscreen is never skipped; hats and shade count too.
Three jobs. Nothing extra.
The exact products, amounts and days come on your routine card once we have seen your skin — two or three products at Stage 1, never ten.
Gentle, always
A pigment-calming serum; no lighteners, ever
Tinted high-SPF that blocks visible light — the single biggest factor
How the programme unfolds
We sell routines in stages so you never pay for products your skin is not ready for. Stage 1 always includes sunscreen and the one treatment your skin needs first. Stage 2 comes only after your 7-day check-in. Exact products and the quote come on WhatsApp once we have seen your photos; delivery is paid separately to the rider or courier.
Sunscreen plus the one treatment your skin needs first — with a routine card and exact amounts.
You send a photo and tell us how it feels. We adjust before anything is added.
One new step, only if your skin is ready.
We compare photos side by side and decide together what comes next.
Please don't
- No hydroquinone, mercury or steroid creams — banned in Kenyan cosmetics and damaging to your skin
- No exfoliating acids or scrubs
- No product bought because it promised to 'remove' pigmentation
When to see a dermatologist
No change after 4 months, or rapid spread, needs a dermatologist — prescription options exist and we will help you get there.
Ready when you are.
Send two or three daylight photos on WhatsApp. We reply with what we see, where we would start, and the quote — no obligation.
