Find your PCA Skin routine — built for your skin, not someone else's.
Answer 5 quick questions and we'll match you with 3 PCA Skin products Niya (BSN, RN) would actually put on your plan. No upsells, no bundles you don't need.
Fitzpatrick-safe. No hydroquinone for melanin-rich skin. Niya rules ingredients in or out based on your tone.
Concern-first. Acne, hyperpigmentation, dryness, aging, sensitivity — every answer changes the match.
Budget-aware. We won't recommend a $135 serum if you said you want to stay under $80.
Step 1 · Your skin tone
Which Fitzpatrick swatch is closest to your face after a typical day with sun?
This is the single most important answer — it determines which brightening ingredients we will and won't recommend for you.
Type I
Type II
Type III
Type IV
Type V
Type VI
If you're between two, pick the darker. It's safer for ingredient selection.
Step 2 · Your primary concern
What's the #1 thing you want addressed first?
Pick the one that bothers you most. We'll address others later in your routine.
Active acne / breakouts
Pimples, cystic, hormonal
Dark spots / PIH
Marks left after acne or sun
Melasma
Hormonal pigmentation patches
Dryness / barrier repair
Tight, flaky, stinging
Fine lines / aging
Wrinkles, loss of firmness
Redness / rosacea
Flushing, sensitivity, visible vessels
Step 3 · Sensitivity
How does your skin usually react to new products?
Some PCA actives are stronger than others. Your answer tells us how to pace your routine.
Resilient
I can use most things without issue. Stinging is rare.
Normal
Occasional reactions to strong actives like retinoids or acids.
Sensitive
I sting, get red, or peel easily. Need gentle formulations.
Step 4 · Budget
What's your comfort zone for this routine?
Total for 3 products. We'll match the right tier — premium isn't always better.
Essentials · under $120
Affordable, no compromise on safety
Balanced · $120–$200
Most popular — well-rounded routine
Premium · $200–$300
Advanced actives, top-tier formulas
No cap · best result
Match me with what works, not what's cheapest
Step 5 · Routine experience
How much skincare experience do you have?
A beginner's routine doesn't start with a 0.5% retinoid. We sequence based on where you are now.
Beginner
Cleanser + maybe moisturizer. Ready for a real routine.
Intermediate
I've used vitamin C, salicylic, or retinol before.
Advanced
I run multi-step AM/PM routines and tolerate strong actives.
