From the founder
“Your skin was never the problem.”
I did not believe we needed to change our skin. I believed we needed better skincare.

Before you buy
Is IYASA made for melanin-rich skin?
Yes. Every formula was developed for deeper skin tones, which mark more easily after breakouts, sun and irritation. The goal is to fade the look of dark spots and even your tone while your natural colour stays exactly as it is.
Does IYASA contain hydroquinone, mercury or steroids?
No. We do not use hydroquinone, mercury or steroids in any IYASA formula. IYASA products are independently lab-tested, and the lab report is linked on this page.
What does "independently lab-tested" mean?
It means the testing was done by an outside laboratory, not by us. The report is public and linked on this page, and it lists which tests were run on which product. For example, hydroquinone was tested and not detected in the Brightening Lotion, the Brightening Cream and the Vitamin C cleanser.
Which product should I start with?
The Brightening Lotion if you want one product for the look of dark spots on the body. The Brightening Set if you want the full four-step routine. Not sure? The 60-second skin quiz picks for you and gives you 10% off.
How does the 90-day guarantee work?
Use the products for up to 90 days. If they are not for you, email us and we refund the order. You keep the products; nothing has to be sent back.
Is shipping free?
Yes for every US order, with tracking sent to your email. We ship within the United States only.
Can men use IYASA?
Yes. The products are made for melanin-rich skin, not for a gender. The lotion and the soap are good starting points for men.
