ESK Benefits
All skin types unless very sensitive skin - we recommend switching Smooth Serum for Gentle Glow. Please take our Skin Quiz!
Niacinamide
Also known as Vitamin B3. Niacinamide is a well-studied ingredient that helps maintain a healthy skin barrier and supports an even-looking skin tone. It is well tolerated and suitable for all skin types, making it a versatile addition to many skincare formulations.
Glycolic and Lactic Acid
Also known as Alpha Hydroxy Acids. Glycolic and Lactic Acid exfoliate and smooth the skin surfaces.
4-n-butylresorcinol
4-n-Butylresorcinol helps improve the appearance of pigmentation and supports an even-looking skin tone.
Zinc Oxide
Zinc Oxide is an ingredient that forms a protective layer on the skin and helps reduce visible signs of irritation from environmental exposure.
Ceramides
Emerging evidence suggests that smaller ceramides support the skin’s surface and help maintain hydration and the appearance of a healthy skin barrier.
Gluconolactone
Gluconolactone is a Polyhydroxy Acid (PHA) with gentle exfoliating and hydrating properties. It helps to remove dead skin cells from the skin’s surface, supporting a smoother and more refined appearance without the irritation often linked to stronger acids.

"I've been using ESK for one month to help with pigmentation and wow!
I feel like I have a brand new face. My skin is smoother and softer, dark spots have faded. It's taken years off in a really short time.
Everyone needs to know about ESK!"

"Hi, my name is Kelly and I have suffered with problematic skin for most of my life. I had terrible acne and chicken pocks as a child that resulted in scarring. Then along came the fine lines and wrinkles. In just under two weeks, I have seen a massive change! The regime is incredibly easy to follow, you don’t need much of it and it is an Australian product! I am finally proud of my skin and cannot wait to see what my face looks like in a month! I am so grateful! Thank you Esk!"

"I've been using the pigmentation products for a month now, I'm very happy with the results, my brown spots have certainly faded, my overall skin is looking much better, and I'm looking forward to even greater results as I continue on using this fabulous skin care regime. I love the way my skin feels after each use and my makeup glides on to give a nice dewy effect which I haven't been able to achieve for some time. I'm feeling more confident in being able to reduce my makeup usage overall."

"I would just like to say how impressed I am with ESK skin care.
I turn the big 60 this year and have be looking for a skin care for mature skin. I was watching Sunrise and Ginni came on talking about ESK. So I thought I would give it ago and I loved the fact that it was made in Australia. I love the way the cleanser made my skin feel so clean and light and the way the products sunk straight into my skin. Which I have been looking for forever. Most products just sit on top of my skin which is frustrating and can be very expensive.
My skin looks smoother and plumper. Finally something that works 😊 Thanks ESK"

"The products were great, I am very impressed with my results and the care given to me by the team changing a product because of my chemotherapy. Outstanding... I believe in your products so much!
As a user of cosmeceuticals and active skincare for over 13 years and an ex user of prescription retinol, I can wholeheartedly say that ESK has made the biggest difference in the shortest timeframe of everything I've ever used.
I cannot recommend it enough."

"My tailored ESK skincare set has exceeded all my expectations. I actually didn’t realise how dull and badly pigmented my skin was until seeing my own 4 weeks progress and honestly being in complete shock of the difference it has made!
I feel so much more confident now to let my natural skin be on show and not having to hide it behind a face full of makeup. I will 100% continue to use this regime as if it can make this difference in just one month imagine what the long term results can be.
Would highly recommend them to anyone that is facing their own skincare issues."

"I have been using E.S.K now for 4 months and the difference I have seen and felt is beyond amazing. Being from the health care industry myself I know the importance of evidence based and scientifically tested products. I have searched for years to find a skin care range that is both gentle and safe but also effective, my skin has never been clearer. My pigmentation and skin tone are now even and I feel like I have a healthy glow. I am now happy to go without makeup and I can’t recommend E.S.K products more highly. Thank you."

"So I've been using ESK Skincare’s Hydroxy Overnight Mask a couple of nights a week for a few weeks now and I am definitely impressed. It leaves my face glowing in the morning and doesn’t let it dry at all. Super hydrating mask! I've also used it to spot treat any breakout, dry and chapped skin! Don't you just love a product that not only works, but oh so versatile too!!!"

"So i’ve been using ESK for about 6 weeks now and i’m super happy with the results. Photo (no filter on either) on the left is before incase it’s not obvious. I have the pigmentation kit and it has made my skin feel amazing. I think there’s a difference in appearance as well. I love the ritual of putting on the different steps morning and night and I will continue using the kit now as it’s part of my daily ritual."

"It is still a work in progress but I am so relieved to finally see results. I never had any pigmentation issues until about two years ago. I have tried so many different products and treatments which has just made my pigmentation worse. I cannot be happier as ESK has given back my confidence and I am able to face the world again without makeup!"

"I followed the morning and evening routine to the letter. I noticed some improvements on my skin texture, smaller pore size and skin glowing/looking very healthy .Is it a miracle cure? My pigmentation did not disappear but I never expected that to happen in 4 weeks!! But it did noticeably improve. Did I like it? YES! So it is a big thumbs up from me from a quality perspective, it is gentle enough to apply everyday without any of the harsh side effects of general targeted treatments yet effective!"

"Before I started using ESK, my skin was very dry and almost impervious to products. My old products used to feel like they were sitting ON my skin, not making any difference. While I don't think I've noticed any real change in the pigmentation of my skin, and I would never expect to look younger, I have certainly noticed that the ESK products feel like they're being absorbed into my skin and providing nourishment. My skin is less itchy and irritated. I added Repair + to my night routine at the suggestion of the helpful ESK team. This has been a great addition and prevented my skin feeling tight and dry while adapting to the ESK products.
My only suggestion for improvement would be to offer Zinc Shade in a larger size. I don't want to feel like I'm skimping on sunscreen!"

"Have been using the Pigmentation Kit for 4 weeks now and have noticed an improvement in my overall skin tone, my hyperpigmentation has lightened a little (in the smaller spots) and I feel that I can go out without makeup on (maybe some blush and mascara). Very happy that the kit didn't react with my skin as I have sensitive skin. My skin feels more supple and smooth too. I cannot wait to see what another month or two brings with the kit!"

Frequently Asked Questions
- Hydroxy Cleanser: A soap-free, pH-balanced cleanser (pH 4.5–5) that removes impurities without disrupting the skin barrier.
- B Calm: Contains niacinamide (Vitamin B3), ceramides, and salicylic acid. Niacinamide works by inhibiting pigment transfer inside the skin, as well as supporting the barrier and managing excess oil, common during pregnancy due to hormonal shifts.
- Zinc Shade: A broad-spectrum SPF 15 day cream using zinc oxide. Sun protection is the single most important step in managing melasma, without it, the other actives are fighting an uphill battle.
- Smooth Serum: A night serum with glycolic acid (3%), lactic acid (1%), and gluconolactone (1%).
- Enlighten Gold: Contains 4-n-Butylresorcinol (4nB) and niacinamide. 4nB is the most potent inhibitor of human tyrosinase currently available, and tyrosinase is what kicks off melanin production in the first place. Studies show 84% of people get significant pigmentation reduction with 4nB, even when used alone. As always, discuss with your clinician.
Vitamin A (including retinal and retinol) isn't recommended during pregnancy or while trying to conceive. We've left it out of this kit entirely. Retinal will be here waiting when you're ready.
As your overall skin tone begins to even out, areas of pigmentation can appear more prominent by contrast. It's the same reason a stain looks darker on a freshly cleaned floor. It's not getting worse, your baseline is improving.
