Ingredients We Never Use
-
No Hydroquinone
Once a common ingredient used in many topical skin lightening treatments, hydroquinone is now restricted by the FDA due to safety concerns. Some countries have even banned the use of hydroquinone completely. Civant products are hydroquinone-free and instead utilize many natural skin brightening ingredients that can effectively reduce the appearance of dark spots and skin discolorations.
-
No Parabens
Parabens are preservatives used to prevent the growth of bacteria within skincare products. They’ve been linked to various adverse health effects from breast cancer to developmental issues, as they can interfere with the body’s hormone production.
-
No Mineral Oil
Oil-based skincare products can lead to breakouts, depending on your skin type. Oil-free products also absorb quicker without clogging pores.
-
No Phthalates
Phthalates are used in cosmetics to give them a velvety feel. The same chemicals are used to soften and increase the flexibility of plastic. At Civant, we think phthalates don't belong on your skin.
-
No Sulfates
Sulfates are petroleum-based chemicals found in cheap soaps. Not only are they harsh detergents, but their production hurts the environment and animals.
-
No Artificial Fragrance
Added fragrances can act as a skin irritant—and not just for those of us with sensitive skin.
What is Hyperpigmentation?

Melasma/Chloasma
Melasma — also known as Chloasma — is a common skin condition that results in brown to gray-brown patches on your skin, usually on the face and especially on the forehead and upper lip. It’s caused by sun exposure and hormones, and is much more likely to affect women (especially those who are pregnant) than men.
Dull, Uneven Skin
Dryness, lack of exfoliation, and hyperpigmentation caused by UV exposure and sun damage all contribute to dull and uneven skin tone. Dead skin cells accumulate on the surface when inadequate hydration prevents the skin from shedding its outer layer with enough frequency.
Dark Spots
Age spots, liver spots, solar lentigines — these are all names for the small, dark spots that appear where your skin receives the most sun exposure, including the face, shoulders, and arms. Despite the name, these spots aren’t a result of aging, but are instead a result of sun damage.
Scars & Marks
Wounds or irritations — like a scrape, rash, or pimple — cause skin inflammation, which leads to post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation (or PIH). As your skin heals, it produces too much melanin, which creates a mark or dark spot.
Discolorations
Some skin discolorations are short-lived and cosmetic in nature, while others are long-lasting and may indicate a chronic skin condition that requires a doctor’s attention. Temporary, cosmetic discolorations result from hyperpigmentation that’s usually due to sun exposure.
