Brighten Stubborn Discoloration Without Irritation

Epicutis Arctigenin Brightening Treatment is designed for those who struggle with persistent hyperpigmentation but can’t tolerate harsh ingredients. This formula gently fades dark spots, evens out tone, and restores radiance—making it a go-to for sensitive, reactive, or post-inflammatory skin types.

"For clients who haven’t seen the glow they wanted from other brightening products — or who couldn’t tolerate traditional vitamin C — the Arctigenin Brightening Treatment has been a game-changer. Some of my most reactive clients, who normally can’t use brightening products at all, have loved this one. Since pigmentation often starts with inflammation, it works by calming the skin and preventing flare-ups."

It strengthens the skin barrier, calms irritation, and supports overall skin health—helping your complexion look brighter, smoother, and more even over time.

Arctigenin

Potent burdock root extract. Reduces melanin-triggering inflammation, supports barrier repair, and promotes clear, healthy skin.

Safe for All Skin Tones and Types

Unlike traditional brighteners, this formula is hydroquinone-free, fragrance-free, and non-sensitizing.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the main benefit of Arctigenin Brightening Treatment?

This treatment helps fade dark spots, melasma, and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation while calming the inflammation that often causes them. It promotes an even skin tone without the irritation or rebound issues associated with stronger actives like hydroquinone or high-concentration acids.

What makes this different from other brightening products?

It focuses on inflammation reduction as the root cause of pigmentation. Instead of relying on harsh exfoliants or pigment blockers, it uses arctigenin and barrier-supportive ingredients to prevent flare-ups and keep discoloration from returning. It’s effective for sensitive skin that can’t tolerate vitamin C or retinoids.

Can I use this with other actives like retinol or vitamin C?

Yes, but it’s often used as a gentler alternative to those ingredients. You can pair it with retinoids if your skin tolerates them, or use it on nights when your skin needs a break. It also works well post-procedure or when you’re cycling off stronger topicals.

How long does it take to see results?

Most users notice a more even tone and calmer skin within 4–6 weeks of consistent use. Deeper pigmentation concerns may take 8–12 weeks. Because it works by calming inflammation and rebuilding skin health, results are progressive and long-lasting with continued use.

Should I apply Arctigenin Brightening Treatment before or after the Lipid Serum?

Apply Arctigenin first, followed by the Lipid Serum. This way, both serums can absorb properly and work at their full potential. Layering them in this order helps maximize brightening and anti-inflammatory benefits from Arctigenin, while the Lipid Serum locks in hydration and strengthens the skin barrier.
