Why You'll Love It

BRIGHTNESS, BOOSTED.

It's not just dull skin that needs brightening. Every skin type benefits from products formulated to boost radiance, even out skin tone and defend against further damage (thank you, antioxidants). And the gang's all here.

The Brighten Starter Kit brings together three products that actually make sense as a routine. Light Work Cleansing Oil removes makeup, SPF and pollution without stripping your skin barrier, so everything that follows absorbs properly. Our bestselling Rosehip Bioregenerate (in a handy travel size) delivers overnight regeneration with CO2-extracted whole-plant rosehip containing up to 700% more polyphenols than standard rosehip oils. And Stabilised Vitamin C 20% Booster provides sustained antioxidant protection with around 10x greater cellular uptake than regular vitamin C, without any of the irritation.

Rosehip runs through the whole kit like a thread. Cleanse with it, treat with it, then layer on a vitamin C that's been specifically designed to play nicely with oil-based formulas. Three angles on brightness: barrier-respecting cleansing, overnight cell renewal, and daytime defence.

Directions

Light Work Rosehip Cleansing Oil: Massage 2–3 pumps into dry skin and let it dissolve makeup, SPF and the day's general nonsense. Add a few drops of water to create a light milk, then rinse thoroughly. Skin stays soft, never stripped.

Stabilised Vitamin C 20% Brightening Booster: Add 1–2 drops to your moisturiser or serum for a brightening boost, or massage directly into clean, dry skin. A little goes a long way here.

Rosehip Bioregenerate Face Oil: Massage 2–3 drops into skin at night as the final step in your routine, after serums, boosters or moisturiser. Let it work while you sleep. That's the dream, literally.

For a full brightening routine: cleanse with Light Work in the evening, follow with Bioregenerate overnight, then use your Vitamin C Booster in the morning to keep skin defended and glowing through the day.

Say no to landfill! Let's recycle everything! - Sarah

This kit contains a mix of packaging types, so here's how to recycle each one.

Light Work Cleansing Oil (glass bottle with pump): Unscrew the pump from the bottle and rinse the dip tube to remove excess product. Place the glass bottle into your household recycling and place the pump in your Pai mailer to send back to us.

Rosehip Bioregenerate (glass bottle with dropper): Unscrew the dropper and remove from the bottle. Gently pull the glass pipette out of the dropper. After rinsing, place the glass bottle and pipette into your household recycling. Place the dropper and rubber bulb into your Pai mailer for return delivery to us.

Stabilised Vitamin C 20% (glass bottle with dropper): Unscrew the dropper and remove from the bottle. Gently pull the glass pipette out of the dropper. After rinsing, place the glass bottle and pipette into your household recycling. Place the dropper and rubber bulb into your Pai mailer for return delivery to us.

All Pai boxes, cartons, sleeves and inserts can be recycled with your household paper recycling.

The majority of your Pai packaging can be recycled at home, but some components need specialist recycling. We've partnered with a specialist programme to make this as easy as possible for our UK customers.

Keep your Pai mailer box (it can be flat packed for easy storage). Fill it with the packaging elements you can't recycle at home, and clearly label the box RECYCLING. Create your free returns label and drop it off at the post office.

Please note we are unable to accept glass or non-Pai packaging. Glass bottles can be separated and placed into your household recycling.

Key Ingredients

  • Rosehip

    Rosehip Oil is much more than just a glow-giver. In its purest form – like ours – it’s like giving your skin a full under the hood service. Omegas 3, 6, 7 & 9 do the repair job, while antioxidant carotenoids protect from further damage.

  • Vitamin C

    If you have a dull, uneven skin tone, this powerhouse is for you. Antioxidant Vitamin C - AKA Ascorbic Acid - is well known for its skin-brightening benefits. We source ours from corn, which is then stabilised in a high percentage that slowly releases on the skin for maximum results.

Sarah Brown, Pai Founder

Your beauty should shine. It should light up a room. "Are you just back from holiday?" No, this is just how my skin glows naturally (with a bit of a Pai boost). Honestly, if our Rosehip doesn't get you compliments, you're in the wrong room!

Frequently Asked Questions

What's included in the Brighten Starter Kit?

You get three products that work as a complete brightening routine: a full-size Light Work Cleansing Oil (100ml), a travel-size Rosehip Bioregenerate overnight face oil (10ml), and a full-size Stabilised Vitamin C 20% Brightening Booster (10ml). The travel-size Bioregenerate is a great way to try Pai's bestselling face oil alongside two full-size essentials.

Who is the Brighten Starter Kit best suited for?

It's designed for anyone dealing with dull, uneven, or tired-looking skin who wants effective brightening without irritation. The entire routine is non-comedogenic, fragrance-free (in the treatment steps), and independently patch tested on sensitive skin, so it works well even if conventional brightening products have caused redness or stinging in the past.

How do I use these three products together?

Start with Light Work on dry skin to dissolve makeup, SPF, and daily grime, then rinse. At night, apply Rosehip Bioregenerate as your overnight treatment to support skin renewal while you sleep. In the morning, add 1-2 drops of the Vitamin C Booster to your moisturiser or serum for daytime brightening and antioxidant defence.

Is this kit suitable for sensitive skin?

Absolutely. Every product in the kit is independently patch tested on sensitive skin, non-comedogenic, and free from parabens, silicones, sulfates, alcohol, and PEGs. Light Work cleanses without surfactants so it won't strip your barrier, and the Vitamin C Booster bypasses the low-pH irritation issues that make conventional vitamin C formulas problematic for reactive skin.

Can I use the Brighten Starter Kit during pregnancy or breastfeeding?

Yes. All three products are pregnancy and breastfeeding safe. They're formulated without retinoids or any ingredients flagged as concerns during pregnancy, and each is certified organic with 100% natural ingredients.

Can I use the Vitamin C Booster and Rosehip Bioregenerate together?

Yes, and they pair particularly well. Both are oil-based, so you can mix 1 to 2 drops of the Vitamin C Booster directly into Rosehip Bioregenerate and apply them in one step. The high linoleic acid content in both formulas supports ceramide synthesis, while the vitamin C adds antioxidant defence on top of the rosehip's regenerative benefits.

What certifications does this kit carry?

Every product is COSMOS Organic certified by the Soil Association, vegan, and Leaping Bunny cruelty-free. Pai is also a certified B Corp, so these standards extend beyond the formulas to how the entire company operates.

Why is stabilised vitamin C better than regular vitamin C for brightening?

L-ascorbic acid is water-soluble and degrades the moment it hits light and air, so potency drops with every use. Pai's ascorbyl tetraisopalmitate is oil-soluble, meaning it passes directly through cell membranes and converts to active vitamin C inside the cell. This slow-release conversion provides sustained brightening throughout the day, rather than one short-lived burst that comes with irritation.

Why does the kit use rosehip in both the cleanser and the face oil?

Rosehip is the throughline ingredient because it works differently at each step. In Light Work, it means you're depositing skin-compatible lipids while you cleanse, so your barrier stays intact. In Bioregenerate, the CO2 supercritical extraction captures the whole plant (fruit and seed), delivering up to 700% more polyphenols and 65% more regenerative sterols than standard rosehip oils for concentrated overnight repair.

What makes this kit different from other brightening sets?

Most brightening kits rely on water-based vitamin C that degrades quickly and needs a low pH that stings reactive skin. Every product here is oil-based, so they layer without pilling and work with your skin barrier rather than against it. The Vitamin C Booster uses ascorbyl tetraisopalmitate, which delivers roughly 10x greater cellular uptake and stays active in cells 40 to 80x longer than conventional L-ascorbic acid, with zero pH-related irritation.
