Nat Says: Melasma has been the bane of my face. All that sunbathing in my 20's gave me a batman mask of pigmentation under the eyes and up to my eyebrows. At night I use a prescription Tretionoin and Hydroquinone to treat the issue, but this can only be used for up to 6 months with a 3 month break in between. For those in between months, I read for this. As well as being a lovely moisturiser with skin identical glycerin and Centella Asiatica, the Tranexamic acid and niacinamide work on brightening skin which has pigmentation issues.
