Pigmentation and dark spots are among the most stubborn skin concerns. They are usually caused by excess melanin production triggered by sun exposure, acne marks, hormonal changes, or inflammation. While they won’t vanish overnight, a consistent and targeted night routine can dramatically fade them and restore an even, glowing complexion.

Nighttime is the perfect window to treat pigmentation because your skin enters repair mode, making it more responsive to active ingredients. This guide gives you a simple, effective, and scientifically backed nighttime routine using CLARIV serums formulated specifically to fade marks and patches.

⭐ Why Night Routine Is Crucial for Pigmentation Repair

At night, your skin:

• Repairs damaged cells

• Increases antioxidant activity

• Improves absorption of actives

• Reduces exposure to UV and pollution

• Heals from inflammation and oxidative stress

This makes nighttime the best opportunity to target stubborn dark spots.

🌙 Step-by-Step Night Routine to Fade Pigmentation & Dark Spots

1. Double Cleanse (Removes Sunscreen + Pollution)

Step 1: Oil-based cleanse

This removes sunscreen, makeup, and excess sebum accumulated during the day.

Step 2: Water-based cleanser

Gently cleanses sweat, dust, and leftover impurities.

Why this matters:
Clean skin allows pigmentation-fading actives to penetrate deeper, increasing their effectiveness.

2. Use CLARIV Anti-Pigmentation Serum (The Star of the Routine)

CLARIV’s Anti-Pigmentation Serum is a powerful multi-active formula specifically designed to fade dark spots faster and more effectively.

Scientific Breakdown of CLARIV’s Ingredients

• 2% Kojic Acid – Inhibits tyrosinase, reducing melanin production

• 2% Alpha Arbutin – Scientifically proven brightener that fades spot clusters

• 3% Tranexamic Acid – Reduces stubborn, deep pigmentation

• 5% Niacinamide – Calms inflammation and stops melanin transfer

This combination works synergistically, targeting pigmentation from multiple pathways for faster results.

How to Apply:

Use 2–3 drops after cleansing. Massage gently until absorbed.

What to Expect:

• Gradual fading of dark spots

• Reduction in patchy tone

• Brighter and more uniform complexion

• Less visible acne marks

3. Add CLARIV Vitamin C Serum (Optional Booster for Faster Brightening)

If your skin can tolerate actives well, you can layer Vitamin C before the Anti-Pigmentation Serum 2–3 times a week.

Why Vitamin C Works at Night

• Works as an antioxidant repair agent

• Helps reverse daytime damage

• Boosts overall brightness

• Supports collagen renewal

• Enhances fading of old marks

CLARIV Vitamin C Serum uses Ethyl Ascorbic Acid, a stable, non-irritating form ideal for sensitive or pigmentation-prone skin.

Tip: If layering causes irritation, alternate nights instead.

4. Moisturize to Seal the Actives

A basic moisturizer is essential to:

• Strengthen the skin barrier

• Lock in hydration

• Reduce potential irritation from actives

• Improve absorption of serums

Choose a lightweight gel if you have oily skin or a richer cream if skin feels dry.

5. Optional: Spot Treatment (Only if Needed)

For stubborn, isolated marks, use a tiny amount of any spot treatment you prefer.
Avoid mixing too many actives on the same night.

6. Sleep! (The Most Underrated Skin Step)

Deep sleep improves:

• Cellular repair

• Inflammation control

• Hormonal balance

• Melanin regulation

Aim for 7–8 hours daily for visible improvements.
