The peel for pigmentation that looks dark, dull and stuck.
The Melasma Peel is a high-performance resurfacing treatment designed for melasma-prone skin, stubborn-looking pigmentation and uneven tone.
Powered by 10% Glycolic Acid, 5% Mandelic Acid, 5% Azelaic Acid and 3% Tranexamic Acid, it helps lift dull surface buildup that can make pigmentation appear darker, heavier and more uneven.
The Melasma Peel can be used as a targeted weekly resurfacing treatment or added into an existing pigment routine. Start slowly and always use SPF daily.
Melasma can look darker when dull buildup sits over it.
Pigmentation is not only about pigment sitting in the skin. When the surface becomes dull, compacted or uneven, dark patches can look heavier, rougher and more obvious.
The Melasma Peel helps refine that surface layer while using pigment-aligned actives to support the appearance of a brighter, more even-looking complexion.
- Stubborn-looking pigmentation that appears dark or heavy.
- Melasma-prone skin that needs controlled resurfacing.
- Dull surface buildup that makes uneven tone more visible.
- Rough texture and patchy-looking skin tone.
- Post-breakout marks and uneven discolouration.

Pigment-focused surface renewal.
This is not just an exfoliating peel. The formula combines high-performance resurfacing acids with pigment-supporting actives to target the look of stubborn discolouration from more than one angle.
10% Glycolic Acid
A high-performance AHA that helps loosen dull, compacted surface cells and encourage visible surface renewal. By lifting buildup that can make pigmentation appear darker and heavier, glycolic acid helps support a smoother, brighter-looking complexion.
5% Mandelic Acid
A larger-molecule AHA that supports more controlled resurfacing. Mandelic acid helps refine the look of uneven tone, rough texture and dull surface buildup while keeping the treatment focused on gradual pigment refinement.
5% Azelaic Acid
A pigment-supporting active that helps improve the look of uneven tone, post-breakout marks and stubborn discolouration. In this formula, azelaic acid helps make the peel more melasma-aligned by targeting the appearance of pigmentation, not just surface texture.
3% Tranexamic Acid
A brightening active commonly used in pigment-focused routines. Tranexamic acid helps support the appearance of more even-looking skin tone and makes the formula especially suited to stubborn-looking pigmentation and melasma-prone skin.
For skin that needs more than a basic brightening serum.
Ideal if you already have a skincare routine and want to add a targeted weekly treatment for stubborn-looking pigmentation, dullness, rough texture and uneven tone.

The Melasma Peel FAQ
Is this suitable for melasma-prone skin?
Yes. The Melasma Peel is designed for melasma-prone skin and stubborn-looking pigmentation. It combines controlled resurfacing acids with pigment-supporting actives including azelaic acid and tranexamic acid.
Can I use this by itself?
Yes. It can be used as a standalone resurfacing treatment or added into an existing pigmentation routine. Start slowly and avoid using it on the same night as other strong actives.
How often should I use it?
Start once weekly. If tolerated, increase to twice weekly. Experienced acid users with resilient skin may build to three times weekly.
Do I rinse this off?
Most users should begin by leaving it on for 15 minutes and rinsing thoroughly. Experienced acid users with resilient skin may leave it on overnight if tolerated.
Will it make my skin peel?
Visible flaking may occur. This is a high-activity resurfacing treatment, but excessive burning, swelling or prolonged redness is not expected and means you should stop use.
Can I use it with retinol or other acids?
No. Do not use this on the same night as retinoids, exfoliating acids, peels, needling or other strong active treatments.
Do I need SPF?
Yes. SPF 50 is essential. This product contains alpha hydroxy acids that can increase sun sensitivity, and UV exposure can worsen pigmentation.
Should I use this alone or with the full Melasma Reset System?
If you already have a consistent pigment routine, The Melasma Peel can be used as a weekly resurfacing boost. If melasma is your main concern, or your pigmentation fades and then comes back, the full Melasma Reset System is the better starting point because it gives your skin a complete AM/PM routine rather than one treatment step.
If pigmentation keeps coming back, the peel may only be one part of what your skin needs.
The Melasma Peel helps refine dull surface buildup and support smoother, brighter-looking skin. But recurring melasma usually needs more than one treatment step.
If your pigmentation fades, then returns, the Melasma Reset System gives you the full routine: cleansing, controlled renewal, targeted pigment care and night support.
