Pigmentation & Spots
How To Use

Pour the oligopeptide solution into the oligopeptide freeze-dried powder. Shake until completely combined and secure the bottle with the application cap. Apply 6–8 drops over the face, twice daily. Refrigerate between uses — finish within 7–10 days of opening; optimal freshness up to 30 days.

Optional — layer with any other Complex Serum or Renewal Serum to extend results.

For the signature Ice Secret booster ritual: layer this Complex Serum first, then any treatment mask of your choice on top, then a Renewal Serum to seal. The mask amplifies the serum during the 15–20 minute occlusive window — especially valuable during recovery phases (post-acne flare, post-sun, post-procedure).

What is it for?

For pigmentation from hormonal cycles, sun exposure, freckles, and post-inflammatory marks left by old acne or scratches. Pigmentation Complex Serum is the first-line peptide treatment in the Ice Secret pigmentation range, calibrated to calm melanin overproduction at the cellular level — without retinol, hydroquinone, or aggressive acids. Among the rarest options in the SG/SEA market: a pigmentation treatment that's safe through pregnancy.

Behind the result: a freshly-mixed peptide formulation that signals cells to slow melanin overproduction at the source. Designed as the starting treatment in the pigmentation journey — if pigmentation hasn't responded after 30 days, escalate or stack with 07 Saffron Correcting Complex Serum (the second-line treatment for resistant pigmentation).

*Note: like all topical peptide treatments, this serum is not designed to dent deep dermal melasma. For melasma, dermatology consultation is the appropriate path.*

In one cycle:
• Fades hormonal pigmentation and dark patches
• Lightens freckles and sun-induced spots
• Reduces post-inflammatory pigmentation from old acne or scratches
• Pregnancy-safe — defensible USP in SG/SEA market
• First-line treatment — pairs with 07 Saffron Correcting for resistant cases
• Sealed with Super Renewal Serum for daily maintenance

INGREDIENTS

FAQ

Q: Is it really safe during pregnancy?
A: Yes — and that's the defining USP. No retinol, no hydroquinone, no harsh acids. One of the rare pigmentation treatments suitable through pregnancy and breastfeeding.

Q: Will this treat melasma?
A: No. Like all topical peptide treatments, this serum is not designed to resolve deep dermal melasma. Melasma requires dermatology consultation (oral tranexamic acid, in-clinic treatments, etc.). For surface-level pigmentation — hormonal, sun-induced, post-acne — Pigmentation Complex Serum is the first-line treatment.

Q: How is this different from 07 Saffron Correcting?
A: Pigmentation Complex is the FIRST-LINE treatment — start here. 07 Saffron Correcting is the SECOND-LINE treatment for pigmentation that didn't respond after 30 days, or can be layered alongside Pigmentation Complex for combined action on resistant cases.

Q: How fast will I see results?
A: Most users see lighter patches around week 2–3. If pigmentation hasn't visibly responded by day 30, escalate to 07 Saffron Correcting Complex Serum.

Q: Will it cause photosensitivity?
A: No. Peptides don't cause sun sensitivity. Daily SPF is still essential — sun exposure undoes brightening work.

Q: Can I layer it with other serums?
A: Optional — layer with any other Complex Serum or Renewal Serum to extend results. Stacks particularly well with 07 Saffron Correcting Complex Serum for resistant pigmentation.

Sustained luminosity. Tone stays even through sun exposure, hormonal cycles, and stress. By month 3: melanin overproduction calms; pigmentation patches significantly lighter.
