What is Sachi Skin's philosophy?
Skin States of Skin Types™
At SACHI® Skin, we look beyond conventional labels that limit us. When talking about skin, we often use the language of “types”. Rigid, structurally-fixed bounds that never move to accommodate the true nature of our skin. However, we understand that our skin exists in flux. It moves between various phases and conditions. It also changes depending on many factors like physical, mental, emotional or environmental.
Guided by our new way of thinking, SACHI® Skin products are created to support your skin health and emotional well-being, bringing your skin to its healthiest most radiant and balanced self.

If you have any suggestions or thoughts on what you would like to see from us reach out to us @sachiskin on instagram or email us at customercare@sachiskin.com. We’re here to listen!
When can I expect visible skin results with your products?
This will vary depending upon the product for some products the difference can be noticed just after one use as some ingredients start work immediately like an exfoliating acid for other products the results will be more noticeable after 4 weeks or 8-16 weeks depending on your skin cycle turnover (which slows as we age). For example, the full benefits of a retinoid are usually visible after a few skin cycles.
Beautiful skin naturally requires the appropriate lifestyle in the sense of a healthy diet, enough water, regular detoxification.
What is the expiry of your products?
Our products will have a best before date on the bottom of the packaging and/or a PAO otherwise known as period after opening. This is represented on the packaging, by a symbol of an open can with a number inside it. For example, 6M (is 6 months). This information will guide you to use the products within the PAO for peak efficiency.
Are your products tested on animals?
No. We have conducted rigorous clinical testing, however never on animals and we ensure our raw materials and manufactures make a declaration of “non animal testing”. This is further verified by our EU Regulator.
Are your products safe for sensitive skins?
We have done ocular and patch tests on all of our products to ensure they cause minimal irritation and are safe to use. Some of our products will be more suited to sensitive skins than others please check the Suitable For tab on the product page for more information. However we recommend you to always conduct a patch test and wait 24 hours before using any product.
Are your products non-comedogenic?
We avoid all high rating comedogenic ingredients in our products aimed for blemish prone skins to ensure the products work effectively.
Is it normal to feel tingling when using the Serums?
Yes & No.
Some may experience a tingling sensation upon application depending on the state of the skin barrier and tolerance levels. Generally low PH or acid products can tingle however this usually dissipates once the skin becomes acclimated.
Especially when the PH of the product is lower than the PH of the skin, this can cause some irritation and sensitivities which is usually temporary as the product acclimatizes to your skin and your skin returns to its normal PH. If irritation and sensitivity continues for long we recommend to stop using the product. A tingling sensation is usually experienced with “Acid” related products or “L Ascorbic Acid” (Vitamin C) and can even include some others
Some may experience a temporary tingling sensation upon application due to the nature of “Acid” and “L Ascorbic Acid” (Vitamin C) products but your skin should return back to normal after a while. If irritation and sensitivity continues for long we recommend to stop using the product.
Specific Products   
Triphala Pigmentation Corrector
What makes the Triphala Pigmentation Corrector Unique?
Triphala Pigmentation Corrector is a novel, non-hydroquinone, non-retinol, non-AHA/BHA, non prescription skin brightener that helps minimize the appearance of skin discolorations and hyperpigmentation.
Clinical Studies with Triphala Pigmentation Corrector have shown:
• Skin complexion is more radiant, homogeneous and uniform.
• Clinically proven to brighten skin by 30.5% over 28 days of use (twice a day application).
How do I amplify the results of Triphala pigmentation Corrector?
Addressing hyperpigmentation requires a multi-step routine with brightening ingredients maximised in each step or layer to deliver the most promising skin transformative results. We recommend you to pair the Triphala Pigmentation Corrector with an SPF 30-50 daily and retinoids, exfoliants and other barrier enhancing products to enhance Triphala’s performance and increase the rate at which your hyperpigmentation, discoloration and dark spots fade.
We also recommend you reapply your SPF every 2 hours if outdoors and at least 3-4 times to get the right level of protection throughout the day so that all the brighteners can go ahead and do their job. If you are not wearing adequate sun protection you are not only undoing all your hard work you also run the risk of darkening or worsening your hyperpigmentation
What If I do not have any dark patches or discolourations, can I still use Triphala Pigmentation Corrector to brighten my skin complexion?
Triphala Pigmentation Corrector can still be used to maintain even skin tone and overall brighter, healthy looking skin. Triphala balances and regulates melanin in the skin which also makes it a great preventative product that can be used 3-4 times a week to maintain an even skin tone.
When should I be using the Triphala Pigmentation Corrector?
It should be applied after cleansing the skin and prior to applying a hydrator, moisturiser and sunscreen. If you are using a Vitamin C serum you can replace it with this Antioxidant Vitamin C rich serum or you can layer your Vitamin C serum under if this is a low PH L Ascorbic Acid water serum or over the Triphala pigmentation Corrector if this is a fat soluble Vitamin C derivative or Vitamin C cream.
It also works fantastically well layered under your Retinoid or Exfoilant treatment.
How often should I apply the Triphala Pigmentation Corrector?
For best results use twice a day, both AM and PM (depending on tolerance). For maintenance and continuous restoration of skin uniformity, use 3-4 times a week.

Who is Ursolic Acid and Retinal Overnight Reform for?
Ursolic Acid and Retinal Overnight Reform is for all skin states and tones especially for those experiencing signs of ageing, lines, wrinkles, lacklustre skin, uneven skin tone, hyperpigmentation and skin prone to congestion and breakouts.
When should I be using the Ursolic Acid and Retinal Overnight Reform?
We recommend using our Reform products at night only, this includes Complexion Clarifying Accelerator too. This is not mean they cannot be used during the day, however sunlight does degrade Vitamin A during the day especially without adequate sun protection and may also increase your skin’s sensitivity to the sun and further worsen hyperpigmentation concerns. We also recommend that you always remember to use an SPF daily when incorporating a retinoid into your weekly routine and reapply SPF every 2 hours especially if you are out in the skin. Just reapplying your SPF alone and diligent adequate application can have a significant impact in reducing melasma, dark spots and discolorations.
**We cannot stress enough the diligent use of SPF
How often should I apply the Ursolic Acid and Retinal Overnight Reform?
The use and frequency must always be adjusted to suit your skin state, preference and personal skin tolerance. For best results we recommend using at least 2-4 times a week for repair, regeneration, skin clarity and even skin tone .
What results can be expected from Ursolic Acid and Retinal Overnight Reform?
Ursolic Acid and Retinal Overnight Reform will usually reveal radiant glowy skin within 7-10 days. However to address more specific stubborn concerns like fine lines, wrinkles, stubborn discolourations - retinoids usually show the best results around 3-4 personal skin cycles ( noting that your skin cycle can be anything between 4-6 weeks for example) and the number of skin cycles can vary per person.
Where can I use the Ursolic Acid and Retinal Overnight Reform?
It can be used on the face, neck (in moderation and layered over your moisturizer as the skin on your neck is thinner) and chest (in moderation and layered over your moisturizer).
Do I need to wait after applying the Ursolic Acid and Retinal Overnight Reform for the next step in my routine?
Yes, do allow the cream to fully absorb onto dry skin to avoid any irritation issues.
Can I use Ursolic Acid and Retinal Overnight Reform if I am breastfeeding, pregnant, lactating or planning a pregnancy?
Due to the Retinal (Vitamin A) content, this formula is not recommended if you are pregnant/breastfeeding please always consult with your doctor.
How can I complete my routine to tackle uneven skin tone?
For maximised and amplified results, we highly recommend you pair the retinoid with the Triphala Pigmentation Corrector to more directly tackle hyperpigmentation and discoloration issues to support skin’s brightness and even tone as well as incorporate a brightening exfoliant like Complexion Clarifying Exfoliant at least once a week.
Are there any side effects?
Due to the nature of Vitamin A products, we always recommend that you conduct a patch test and wait 24-48 hours at the very minimum before using any product. Note that side effects from retinoid use can include irritation, sensitisation, dryness, flakiness, tenderness and soreness. Although our formulation includes hydrators and barrier support to reduce the risk of any side effects some may still experience them.
I have sensitive skin, can I still use the Ursolic Acid and Retinal Overnight Reform?
We make sure to avoid irritants in our formula. However, due to the strong nature of retinal, we recommend doing a patch test on the face before using the product and if no irritation occurs after 24 hours, start 1-2 times a week and gradually increase frequency to reduce the chances of adverse reactions (skin peeling, redness, strong purging). We would even recommend for initial use that you layer your Overnight Reform treatment over your moisturiser (once it is dry) to minimise initial irritation for the first 2 weeks whilst using it 1-2/week and then slowly using it beneath your moisturiser. Slowly acclimating your skin to retinoids can help reduce any risk of irritations.
Always remember to incorporate 1 product at a time, without introducing too much too soon to your skin.
I am a beginner to retinoids. How should I go about using Ursolic Acid and Retinal Overnight Reform?
When you are new to retinoids please ensure you are conducting a patch test first (as noted above to test the product on your skin). Then it is critical that you start slow even if you do not notice any sensitization issues after 2-3 applications as delayed sensitization can also occur with retinoids. Start once a week only, layering over your moisturizing and increasing slowly to twice a week once you feel comfortable.
How do I layer the Retinoid in my routine?
There are many ways to layer your retinoid in your routine.
AM: Use Triphala Pigmentation Corrector after cleansing, and make sure to follow up with a moisturiser and an SPF 30 or above.
PM: For enhanced results pair your Triphala Pigmentation Corrector with Ursolic and Retinal Overnight Reform. Make sure the skin is dry to the touch and apply ½ to 1 pump of your Ursolic Acid and Retinal Overnight Reform over the face and neck after your Triphala Pigmentation Corrector has already settled in.
(*More resilient skins can spot treat with the Complexion Clarifying Accelerator for stubborn hyperpigmentation, blemishes, blemish marks and dark spots)
Moisturiser
If you find your skin is easily irritated by retinoids, exfoliants, sensitive/reactive, then you can apply a moisturiser and wait for your skin to dry before layering Ursolic and Retinal Overnight Reform treatment. Otherwise, moisturise suited to your skin state.
• If you have never used a retinoid product before, begin by limiting use to once a week, gradually increasing frequency to twice a week then every other night, making sure to pay attention to your skin tolerance.
• Always remember to apply a retinoid to dry skin thus making sure all previous layers are fully absorbed before layering your retinoid to prevent irritation.
