Best Facial Kit in Pakistan (2026): Real Prices and What Is Inside
Facial kit prices in Pakistan for 2026, what each step really does, which kits are worth buying, and how to build a better facial yourself.
A salon facial in Lahore or Karachi runs Rs 2,500 to Rs 6,000 for one sitting, and the beautician uses about Rs 300 worth of product on your face. That gap is the whole reason facial kits sell the way they do here. Buy the jars once, keep them on your shelf, and the same routine costs a few hundred rupees a sitting. The catch is that facial kits in Pakistan range from Rs 550 to over Rs 15,000, the labelling on the cheap ones tells you almost nothing, and a fair number of the whitening kits contain things you would not knowingly put on your face. Here is what the popular kits actually cost in August 2026, what is inside them, and how to tell a good one from an expensive box of scented cream.

We do not sell a boxed facial kit. This is the same facial in single products, which is what the second half of this guide argues for: you buy each step once, replace them one at a time as they run out, and there is no bleach sachet in the set. It costs more up front than a Rs 2,000 kit and lasts a good deal longer.
- NB Sons Hydrating Face Wash, Rs 1,500, the budget cleanse step that does the job of the kit's cleansing milk
- St. Ives Gentle Smoothing Rose & Aloe Face Scrub 170g, Rs 910, fine granules for the exfoliation step, gentle enough for sensitive skin
- Beauty of Joseon Ground Rice & Honey Glow Mask 150ml, Rs 3,999, the mask step, and a 150ml tub covers a run of sittings rather than one
- Garnier Hydra Bomb Tissue Mask, Rs 510, the cheapest way to try the mask step, one sitting per sheet
- St. Ives Collagen & Elastin Face Moisturizer 283g, Rs 1,750, the moisturise step, and the jar lasts months
- Pixi Glow Tonic (5% Glycolic Acid Toner), Rs 3,999, the chemical exfoliant for oily or congested skin that would rather skip granules
What is actually inside a facial kit
Almost every kit sold in Pakistan follows the same salon sequence, whether it has five steps or eighteen. The number on the box is mostly marketing. What matters is which of these jars you are getting.
| Step | What it is | Does it earn its place? |
|---|---|---|
| Cleanser or milk | Removes makeup and surface oil | Yes, though your regular face wash does the same job |
| Scrub or polisher | Physical exfoliant, usually apricot or walnut granules | Yes, if the granules are fine. Coarse ones cause micro tears |
| Bleach or activator | Hydrogen peroxide plus an ammonia based activator, lightens facial hair | Optional, and the riskiest thing in the box |
| Massage cream or gel | Slip for the 10 minute massage | Feels lovely, does very little for the skin itself |
| Mask or pack | Clay, mud or cream, left on 10 to 15 minutes | Yes, this is where most of the visible tightening comes from |
| Serum or ampoule | Small vial, often vitamin C or a brightening blend | Depends entirely on concentration, which is rarely stated |
| Moisturiser or gel | Seals everything in | Yes, and skipping it undoes the rest |
An eighteen step kit usually splits the same functions across more jars. Two masks instead of one, a separate toner, a neck cream. You are paying for jar count as much as for formulation.
Facial kit prices in Pakistan, August 2026
These are current listed prices from the brands' own online stores. Discounts move constantly on Dermacos and Golden Pearl in particular, so treat these as the going rate rather than a fixed number.
| Kit | Price (PKR) | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| Golden Pearl Skin Polishing Pack | 550 | Trying the format without committing |
| Golden Pearl Glowing Facial Trial Kit | 950 | One or two sittings, travel |
| Golden Pearl Brightening Rice Kit (5 step) | 1,999 | Dull skin, gentler than the whitening lines |
| Dermacos Complete Facial Tubes, pack of 5 (200ml) | 2,250 | The sensible Dermacos entry point |
| Christine White Glow Facial Kit (50g) | 2,800 | Widely available, bleach included |
| Dermacos Botanical Herbal Facial Kit, pack of 7 | 2,850 | Sensitive or reactive skin |
| Saeed Ghani Facial Kit (8 pieces) | 2,896 | Herbal route, no bleach, no synthetic lightener |
| Dermacos Complete Facial Tubes, pack of 7 | 3,150 | Adds an ampoule and a second mask |
| Dermacos Anti-Wrinkle Lifting Kit, pack of 8 | 3,950 | Mature skin, 35 plus |
| Dermacos Brighten Up Facial Kit, pack of 7 | 4,350 | Pigmentation, if you tolerate actives well |
| Dermacos Complete Facial Jars, pack of 11 (200ml) | 7,150 | Home salon use, multiple faces |
| Dermacos Complete Facial Kit, pack of 18 | 10,300 | Beauticians and salon setups only |
| Dermacos Complete Facial Kit, pack of 13 (500g) | 15,150 | Professional volume |
Something to notice in that table. The Rs 15,150 kit is not thirty times better than the Rs 550 pack. It is bigger. The 500g professional jars exist because a salon burns through product on twenty clients a week, and buying salon sizes for one face at home means half of it oxidises in your cupboard before you finish it. For personal use, the 200ml tubes or a trial pack are the honest choice.
Which kit suits which skin
- Oily and acne prone. Skip anything with a heavy massage cream and skip bleach entirely. Clay masks and a gentle chemical exfoliant serve you far better than granules dragged across an active breakout.
- Dry or flaky. Cream based kits, short mask times, and moisturiser immediately after. The Dermacos botanical line and Saeed Ghani's herbal kit are kinder here than the whitening lines.
- Sensitive or rosacea prone. Patch test on your jawline, wait 24 hours, and avoid the bleach step permanently.
- Pigmentation and melasma. A facial kit will not fix melasma. It can make it worse, because heat, friction and irritation all drive pigment production. Read our guide to dark spots on the face before you buy a whitening kit.
The bleach and whitening problem
Roughly half the kits on Pakistani shelves are sold on a whitening promise, and this is where you need to pay attention. Two separate issues get tangled together.
The first is bleach. Facial bleach uses hydrogen peroxide with an ammonia based activator to lighten the fine hair on your face, which makes skin look brighter without changing your actual skin tone. It is not dangerous when used correctly, but it stings, it can leave chemical burns if you leave it on past the stated time, and repeated use on already irritated skin is a bad idea. If you feel more than mild tingling, wash it off immediately rather than waiting out the clock.
The second is more serious. Unregulated skin lightening products sold in South Asia have repeatedly been found to contain mercury salts and undeclared hydroquinone or steroids. The World Health Organization is direct about this, describing skin lightening as a practice "often associated with the risk of exposure to mercury salts," with mercury having toxic effects on the nervous, digestive and immune systems, the kidneys and the skin (WHO, Mercury and health). The kits most likely to carry this risk are the unbranded ones sold loose in bags, the ones with no batch number, and anything promising a shade change in seven days. Buy from the brand's own store or an established retailer, check for a manufacturer address and batch code, and treat any kit that makes your skin unnaturally pale within a week as a reason to stop, not a result. Our whitening cream guide goes further into which ingredients are legitimate and which are not.
If you are pregnant, leave the bleach and the whitening kits alone for now. Pregnancy already raises your odds of melasma, skin is more reactive, and several brightening actives have not been established as safe in pregnancy. Plain cleansing, a mild clay mask and a good moisturiser are fine. If you have a skin condition or are on prescription skin treatment, check with your doctor or dermatologist before starting home facials. If you are working out where you are in your pregnancy, the free pregnancy calculator will give you your week and due date in a few seconds.
Building a better facial from single products
Here is the part the kit boxes will not tell you. A facial kit is a bundle of small, low concentration versions of products you may already own, priced together. If you buy the four things that actually do the work, you get better formulations, you replace them individually as they run out, and the per sitting cost drops.
| Step | Product | Price (PKR) |
|---|---|---|
| Cleanse | CeraVe Hydrating Facial Cleanser | Rs 5,999 |
| Cleanse (budget) | NB Sons Hydrating Face Wash | Rs 1,500 |
| Exfoliate | St. Ives Gentle Smoothing Rose & Aloe Face Scrub 170g | Rs 910 |
| Exfoliate (acne prone) | St. Ives Blemish Control BHA Apricot Face Scrub 170g | Rs 920 |
| Tone | Pixi Glow Tonic (5% Glycolic Acid Toner) | Rs 3,999 |
| Mask | Garnier Hydra Bomb Tissue Mask | Rs 510 |
| Mask (glow) | Beauty of Joseon Ground Rice & Honey Glow Mask 150ml | Rs 3,999 |
| Moisturise | St. Ives Collagen & Elastin Face Moisturizer 283g | Rs 1,750 |
A workable starter set of the NB Sons face wash, the rose and aloe scrub, a sheet mask and the St. Ives moisturiser comes in under Rs 5,000 at today's prices, and the scrub and moisturiser alone will last you months rather than a handful of sittings. Browse the full cleansers and treatments and moisturisers ranges if you want to swap anything for your skin type, or the skincare edit for the curated version.
The cheapest mask of all is already in your kitchen cupboard. Multani mitti costs under Rs 100 for a packet at any pansaar shop, and for oily skin it does the same tightening and oil absorbing job as the clay mask in a Rs 4,000 kit. Our multani mitti guide has the mixing ratios and which additions are worth it. If you prefer the herbal route in kit form, Saeed Ghani builds its kit around ubtan, sandalwood and rose water rather than synthetic lighteners. We do not stock Saeed Ghani.
How to do the facial properly
Order matters, and so does timing. Most home facials go wrong because people rush the middle and skip the end.
- Tie your hair back and cleanse twice. Once to lift makeup and sunscreen, once to actually clean the skin.
- Steam for 5 minutes, no longer. A bowl of hot water and a towel is enough. Fifteen minutes of steam does not open pores further, it just dehydrates and irritates.
- Scrub with almost no pressure. Small circles, 60 seconds, avoiding the under eye area entirely. If your skin is pink afterwards, you pressed too hard.
- Massage for 8 to 10 minutes, upward and outward. This is the relaxing part. It improves circulation temporarily and does nothing permanent, which is fine.
- Mask for the time on the packet. Clay masks should come off while still slightly tacky. Letting a clay mask dry to cracking pulls moisture out of the skin.
- Tone, moisturise, done. Apply moisturiser while skin is still slightly damp so it seals water in.
- Sunscreen the next morning without exception. Freshly exfoliated skin burns and pigments faster. Skipping it is how a facial turns into new dark patches. A light, no white cast option like the Beauty of Joseon Relief Sun SPF50+ (Rs 3,315) sits comfortably on skin that has just been exfoliated, and our sunblock guide covers the rest of the picks that work in Pakistani heat.
Once a month is plenty for most skin. Every two weeks is the absolute ceiling, and only if your skin is oily and untroubled. Weekly facials are how people end up with a damaged barrier, redness that will not settle, and skin that stings when they apply anything at all.
Mistakes that ruin a home facial
- Doing it the night before an event. Book it four to five days ahead. Skin often looks slightly congested for 48 hours after a deep clean, and breakouts that were forming will surface.
- Bleaching over active acne. The peroxide burns open lesions and the result is dark marks that outlast the pimple by months.
- Using the whole kit on the first sitting. Patch test the bleach and any brightening ampoule separately, 24 hours apart, before you use them on your full face.
- Layering the kit on top of retinol or acids. Pause your actives for two days either side. Doubling up on exfoliation is the fastest route to a compromised barrier, and the order you apply things matters generally, which our skincare routine order guide lays out.
- Keeping the kit past its expiry. Once opened, jars of massage cream and mask are usable for around six months. Peroxide bleach loses strength faster and separates. If it smells sharp or has split, bin it.
So which one should you buy?
If you want to try the format cheaply, the Golden Pearl trial kit at Rs 950 tells you within one sitting whether you enjoy the ritual. If you have decided you want a proper kit and your skin is not sensitive, the Dermacos five tube pack at Rs 2,250 is the best value in the mainstream range and does not lock you into salon sized jars. If you would rather avoid bleach and synthetic lighteners entirely, the Saeed Ghani kit at Rs 2,896 is the herbal option and its ubtan and sandalwood base is gentle enough for most people.
And if what you actually want is better skin rather than a nice hour to yourself, put the money into a good cleanser, a mild exfoliant you use twice a week, a moisturiser and a sunscreen. A monthly facial layered on top of that routine feels wonderful. A monthly facial instead of that routine is an hour of pampering that washes off by Tuesday.
