A gentle overnight peel that fades dark spots, even deep-set ones
Topicrem MELA Anti-Dark Spot Gentle Peeling Night Cream is a night cream for all skin types, sensitive included, that targets every type of dark spot, even long-standing ones. It pairs the brand's MELA complex, built on niacinamide and a brown algae extract, with a dual peeling action. Gluconolactone, a mild polyhydroxy acid, and a keratolytic enzyme remove dead cells on the surface little by little. Skin looks more radiant from the first morning, and night after night spots fade and the complexion looks more even.
The texture
A light, comfortable cream that absorbs easily and feels neither sticky nor greasy. The peeling action is gentle, so there is no tingling or visible flaking on most skins. It has a soft floral, powdery and musky scent with hints of blackcurrant, lotus and vanilla.
Who it suits
- Sun spots, age spots and marks left by blemishes
- Uneven, dull skin that needs more glow
- Sensitive skin that cannot handle strong acids or retinoids
- Anyone who wants an exfoliating step without a separate serum
Worth knowing before you buy: exfoliated skin burns more easily and spots come back with sun exposure. Use a high SPF every morning, such as the MELA SPF50+ day cream below. The cream is also fragranced, which may not suit very reactive skin.
How long one tube lasts
Used every evening on the face and neck, one 40ml tube lasts about 2 months, which matches the time needed to see a clear difference in dark spots.
