Even the Score
Products that work on dark spots, hyperpigmentation, and uneven tone.
Discoloration is one of the most common skin concerns and one of the least served by mainstream beauty. Most products either don't work on deeper skin tones or rely on harsh ingredients that cause more harm than good, this collection is the alternative, plant-based, intentional, and formulated with your skin in mind from the start. "Zikora" Hyperpigmentation Paste, "Anyanwu" Hyperpigmentation Scrub, and the Hyperpigmentation Bundle Set work as a system where the paste treats, the scrub exfoliates and brightens, and the bundle does both. Consistency over weeks is where the real results come in, and these products are gentle enough to use regularly without causing irritation.
"Ugomma" Facial Oil
A Lightweight Facial Oil for Dry, Dull or Tight-Feeling Skin
"Ugomma" Facial Oil is a simple, four-ingredient facial oil made with grapeseed oil, vitamin E, neem oil and tea tree. It is made for skin that feels dry, dull or in need of light nourishment, and it doubles as a cleansing oil.
Texture and Finish: A Lightweight Face Oil That Won't Feel Heavy
Thin and fast-absorbing. It spreads easily over damp skin and leaves a soft finish rather than a rich, coating one.
Scent: A Fresh, Herbal Facial Oil
Fresh, herbal and naturally earthy, with clean tea tree and neem notes and no added synthetic fragrance.
Made With: tea tree, vitamin E, grapeseed oil, neem oil.
How to Use Facial Oil
As a moisturizing step: on clean skin, apply 1–3 drops to fingertips and press over face and neck, avoiding the eyes.
As a cleansing oil: apply a small amount to dry skin, massage to loosen makeup and sunscreen, then rinse or follow with a gentle cleanser.
Where It Fits: Facial Oil, Before or After Moisturizer
Facial oil goes after water-based products, to help seal in what is underneath. If you use a paste or serum, that goes first.
Best For: dry, dull or tight-feeling skin, and anyone who prefers a light oil over a cream.
Not For: broken or damaged skin, or the eye area. Because it contains tea tree and neem, patch test first if your skin is sensitive.
"ZIkora" Hyperpigmentation Paste

Texture and Finish: A Rich, Concentrated Paste
Thick, buttery and concentrated, so a small amount covers a small area. It warms between the fingers and presses in without a greasy finish.
Scent: A Naturally Herbal Paste
Soft, warm and herbal: lavender, bright citrus and frankincense, with no added synthetic fragrance.
Made With: shea butter, honey, rosehip, wheat germ, camellia, avocado, frankincense, lavender, lemon and lemongrass.
How to Use
- Start with clean, dry skin.

- Use once or twice daily as part of your routine.
- Follow with a facial oil and use sun protection during the day.
Where It Fits: Hyperpigmentation Routine Order
After cleansing and before facial oil, but not on the same day as a gentle exfoliating step. Pairs with the Anyanwu Hyperpigmentation Scrub and the Ugomma Facial Oil.
Best For: areas of visible uneven-looking tone, and skin that feels dull or dry.
