“Vitamin C has always been an essential part of my routine, but when it comes to tackling hyperpigmentation, its approach is limited. As a woman of color, I wanted a fast and effective solution for the more stubborn pigmentation that affected my skin.
With Triphala Pigmentation Corrector, some forms of hyperpigmentation and post-acne marks can completely fade in just 3 weeks rather than the usual 6-9 months. This is thanks to our proprietary technologies and hidden gem; an Ayurvedic superfruit blend, “Triphala”. This lightweight serum is something you can use on a daily basis for restorative and preventative action across all skin tones, and layers very easily into your routine.” - Farah

The Technology
The Technology
Triphala Pigmentation Corrector employs a multi-targeted approach to pigment regulation: by combining a proprietary Ayurvedic superfruit blend with microalgae actives and peptides, it works across the full pigmentation pathway. This broad-spectrum mechanism addresses multiple causes of dark spots and hyperpigmentation, which is particularly useful for persistent or multifactorial pigment issues.
The Complexion Clarifying Accelerator uses a gentle yet advanced Enzyme Acid Complex, a 5-in-1 serum to resurface, retexturise, clarify and brighten your skin. This unique formula combines Clarifying Ayurvedic botanicals like Organic Neem and Thyme, working together to reveal clearer, more radiant skin over time.
I am blown away, I will never live without this. It is absolutely incredible, my hyperpigmentation has faded such an incredible amount in such a short time and my skin tone is so even.

What I love is that it's a very well-rounded pigmentation treatment. This is the most effective at treating PIE quickly but it also targets the brown spots and the olive tones that are deeper than the rest of your skin tone, as well the overall patchiness that develops even around the mouth and cheek area.

"This product is so good! It makes my skin feel super soft and supple after just two weeks of use."

“This is one of my favourite products for dealing with post-acne marks and hyperpigmentation. It's unlike a lot of other products on the market and contains Dioic Acid (a really promising ingredient for acne). I was using this every second night alternative with my Vitamin A and it worked really well for me! By far one of the best products for stubborn PIE/PIH and the packaging is beautiful!”

Frequently Asked Questions
Addressing hyperpigmentation requires a multi-step routine with brightening ingredients maximised in each step to deliver the most transformative results. We recommend pairing the Triphala Pigmentation Corrector with either the Complexion Clarifying Accelerator or Ursolic Acid & Retinal Overnight Reform to enhance Triphala’s performance and accelerate the rate at which your hyperpigmentation, discolouration, and dark spots fade.
Both kits will help towards your goal for brighter, clearer, and healthier-looking skin.
The You Set the Tone Duo is geared more towards those focusing on texture, post-blemish scarring, skin roughness, and clarity concerns (such as blemishes and hyperpigmentation) for smoother, brighter, more bouncy skin.
The You Set the Tone Duo II will be for those who are more concerned about well-ageing, firmness, sun damage, or generally prefer a retinoid approach over acids.
Your choice will depend on your personal approach towards healthier-looking skin.
Always include one product at a time in your routine. Start with the Triphala Pigmentation Corrector. Once your skin is acclimated to this, you can introduce the Complexion Clarifying Accelerator.
When incorporating the Accelerator, add it at least 7 days after the first product use. Start slowly with once-a-week application. Apply a very thin layer and gradually increase frequency to 1–2 times a week or more depending on your skin tolerance.
The Accelerator is a concentrated gel cream working to retexturise the skin, especially after scarring and helping lift pigmented cells. It can be used more frequently as a spot treatment or over a post-acne scar for smoothing and brightening.
