This facial is made for you if:

  • Your pigmentation looks darker, duller or more obvious when your skin texture feels rough.
  • You already use daily skincare, but want a focused weekly treatment for pigmentation-prone skin.
  • You have post-acne marks, PIH, sun spots, uneven tone or stubborn-looking discolouration.
  • You want something more targeted than a glow mask, but less complicated than another daily step.
  • You want brighter, smoother, more even-looking skin without an aggressive peel-style routine.
  • You are using a pigmentation routine and want a weekly treatment that complements it.
  • You want skin that looks clearer, fresher and more refined before an event, holiday or photoshoot.

Is this facial right for you?

  • Melasma-prone skin
  • Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation
  • Post-acne marks
  • Sun damage and dark spots
  • Uneven tone, dullness and rough-looking texture

What this replaces

  • Random glow masks with no pigment strategy
  • Over-exfoliating with multiple harsh products
  • Guessing what to use once a week
  • Adding another daily step to an already full routine

How this works

1
Target Supports the look of dark spots, post-acne marks and uneven tone.
2
Renew Helps lift dull surface buildup so skin looks smoother and brighter.
3
Support Hydrating and calming ingredients help skin feel comfortable after use.

Not another random mask.

A weekly pigmentation facial with a specific role: targeted pigment support, smoother-looking texture and brighter-looking skin.

Why it matters

Your daily routine does one job. This does another.

Your daily skincare supports consistency, barrier care and ongoing pigment management.

The Kojic + Retinol Facial is your once-weekly treatment step.

It is designed to complement your cleanser, serum, moisturiser and SPF — not replace them.

Daily routine Maintains consistency with cleanser, serum, moisturiser and SPF.
Kojic + Retinol Facial Adds a concentrated weekly pigment-support and resurfacing step.
Ordinary face mask Hydrates, clarifies or gives a temporary glow.
Kojic + Retinol Facial Designed specifically for pigmentation-prone skin.
Ordinary face mask Usually gives one main benefit.
Kojic + Retinol Facial Supports the look of pigmentation, dullness, uneven tone and rough texture.
Aggressive peel routine Can leave reactive skin feeling stripped or overworked.
Kojic + Retinol Facial A once-weekly wash-off treatment designed to fit into a steady routine.

“For skin that looks dull, marked or uneven, this is the weekly reset step — not another random mask.”

How to use

Simple enough to stay consistent. Focused enough to earn its place in your pigmentation routine.

01

Cleanse

Start with clean, dry skin.

02

Apply

Apply an even layer, avoiding the eye area.

03

Wait 15 minutes

Leave on for up to 15 minutes, then rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water.

SPF is essential.

Important: Pigmentation-prone skin is easily influenced by sun exposure, heat and irritation. Use SPF every morning and reapply as needed.

Before you buy

Still wondering if you need it?

These are the questions most customers have before adding a weekly pigmentation facial to their routine.

I already have a serum.

A serum supports your skin every day. This facial is a concentrated weekly wash-off treatment with a different role.

Will this replace my routine?

No. It complements your cleanser, serums, moisturiser and SPF — it does not replace them.

Is it only for melasma?

No. It can support the visible look of melasma, post-acne marks, PIH, sun damage, dullness and uneven tone.

Why only once a week?

Because it is a concentrated treatment. Weekly use helps avoid overdoing exfoliation.

Can I use it with the Melasma Reset System?

Yes. It is designed as a weekly support treatment within a broader pigmentation routine.

Will it work by itself?

It can support visible brightness, texture and uneven tone. For recurring melasma, use it with consistent SPF and routine care.

This may not be for you if…

This facial is built as a weekly support treatment — not an aggressive overnight bleaching product.

  • You want instant bleaching or an overnight pigment result.
  • You do not want to use daily SPF.
  • You want to layer multiple strong peels and exfoliants on the same day.
  • Your skin is currently burning, broken, severely irritated or compromised.
  • You want one product to replace your full pigmentation routine.
  • You are not prepared to use it consistently once weekly.

Add the weekly step your pigmentation routine may be missing.

The Kojic + Retinol Facial is a concentrated weekly treatment designed for pigmentation-prone skin, uneven tone, dullness and visible dark spots.

Use once weekly. Leave for 15 minutes. Rinse. Continue your usual routine.

Kojic + Retinol Facial — FAQ

What is the Kojic + Retinol Facial?

It is a concentrated weekly wash-off facial designed for pigmentation-prone skin, uneven tone, dullness and visible dark spots.

How often should I use it?

Use once weekly. If your skin is sensitive or new to active skincare, start slowly and monitor how your skin responds.

How long do I leave it on?

Leave on for up to 15 minutes, then rinse thoroughly with lukewarm water.

Can I use it with my current skincare?

Yes. It is designed to work alongside your routine. Avoid layering it with other strong exfoliating treatments on the same day.

Can I use it with the Melasma Reset System?

Yes. It can be used as a weekly support treatment alongside the Melasma Reset System. Follow your routine guidance and avoid over-exfoliating.

Is it suitable for melasma?

It can support the visible appearance of pigmentation-prone skin, including melasma-prone skin. Melasma is easily influenced by sun, heat, hormones and irritation, so daily SPF and consistency remain essential.

Is it suitable for acne marks or PIH?

Yes. It is designed to support the look of post-acne marks, PIH, uneven tone and dark spots.

Will it replace my serum?

No. Think of it as your weekly treatment step. Your serum supports your skin every day; this facial complements that routine once a week.

Can I use it with retinol?

Avoid using it on the same night as strong retinoids or exfoliating products unless your skin is already accustomed to active skincare. If unsure, alternate nights and prioritise barrier comfort.

Can I use it with vitamin C?

You can continue using vitamin C in your routine if your skin tolerates it, but avoid layering too many actives on the same day if your skin feels sensitive.

Is it suitable for sensitive skin?

If your skin is sensitive, introduce gradually. Do not use on broken, burning, severely irritated or compromised skin.

Do I need sunscreen?

Yes. Daily SPF is essential when working on pigmentation. Pigmentation-prone skin can be triggered by sun exposure and heat.

Can I use it during pregnancy or breastfeeding?

If you are pregnant, breastfeeding or under medical care, check with your healthcare provider before using active skincare.

When will I notice results?

Some customers notice smoother, brighter-looking skin quickly. Visible changes in pigmentation usually build gradually with consistent use and daily SPF. Individual results vary.

I added the Facials System to my Reset System and Wow!!!

I have been using the Melasma Reset System and decided to include the Facials System to get things moving faster and also achieve better skin health and appearance. I’m so happy I did because 2 weeks in, I am seeing a massive change and fading of my pigment. These 4 products are just amazing and luxe.

I’m so happy I added this facial system and won’t look back! 10/10

3 piece pigmentation kit

I bought the pigmentation trio, but have also been using the Kojic acid serum for about 6 weeks, to target the pigmentation on my face. Not only have I seen improvement in my pigment I have also noticed a huge improvement in my overall skin texture and hydration. I’ll definitely been interested in using other Windyigarn products in the future. I also love that I am supporting an Australian small business!!
