For dullness, the look of dark spots and uneven tone. Pure vitamin C, kojic acid and Australian Kakadu plum, made in Melbourne. Wear SPF every morning.

Brightening guide

Brighter-looking skin, step by step

Dullness, marks left after a breakout and patches of uneven tone respond to the same few habits: an antioxidant in the morning, a tone-evening active, gentle exfoliation and SPF every day.

The Vitamin C Serum is pure ascorbic acid with ferulic acid, for the morning under sunscreen. The Kojic Acid Moisturiser pairs kojic acid with gluconolactone and lactic acid to even the look of tone. The Anti-Aging Skin Brightening Moisturiser adds Australian Kakadu plum. Use them every day, with SPF every morning.

The Glow & Brightening Ritual brings the face wash, serum and kojic moisturiser together with a 15% Ritual saving. Lactic acid can make skin more sensitive to the sun, so wear SPF every morning. Read more about Kakadu plum, or take the skin quiz.

Common questions

Can I use vitamin C and kojic acid together?

Yes. Apply the Vitamin C Serum in the morning, then the Kojic Acid Moisturiser over it. If your skin feels irritated, use them at different times of day instead.

How should I use brightening formulas for the look of dark spots?

Use them every day, as directed, and keep going: the look of marks changes gradually, and older patches take longer. Daily SPF matters as much as the formulas, because sun exposure darkens marks again.

Should I use vitamin C in the morning or at night?

The morning, under sunscreen. Vitamin C is an antioxidant, so it works alongside your SPF through the day. It does not replace sunscreen.

Why has my vitamin C serum changed colour?

Pure vitamin C slowly reacts with air and light and turns yellow, then brown. Keep the cap closed and store it away from heat and sunlight. A deep brown serum is past its best.
