Dr. Althea Melaclear Cream

A targeted dark spot cream from Dr. Althea — ointment-style formula that melts into a lightweight cream-to-serum texture on skin. Fades dark spots, acne marks, and uneven tone with three complementary brightening actives. Use as a targeted spot treatment or apply a generous layer overnight as a brightening sleep mask. Fragrance-free. Vegan. No artificial coloring. No parabens. Dermatologist tested. 20ml.  Tranexamic Acid — blocks plasmin activity to interrupt melanin production at the source. One of the most effective dark spot actives available over the counter. Alpha-Arbutin — a stable, gentle tyrosinase inhibitor that brightens without irritation. Works via a different pathway from tranexamic acid for synergistic effect. Niacinamide — inhibits melanin transfer to skin cells, evens overall tone, controls sebum, and strengthens the barrier. Ceramide NP + Licorice Root Extract — ceramide NP replenishes barrier lipids for healthy hydrated skin during treatment. Licorice soothes and adds additional brightening support. Two ways to use: Spot treatment: Apply a small amount to dark spots or acne marks as the last step of skincare. Pat until absorbed. Overnight mask: Apply a generous layer across the full face and leave on overnight for intensive brightening care. Fragrance-free. Vegan. 20ml.
