How it works: Skinshine Cream is a combination of two medicines: Hydroquinone Topical, Mometasone Topical and Tretinoin Topical which treat melasma (dark spots on skin). Hydroquinone Topical is a skin lightening medicine. It reduces the amount of a skin pigment (melanin) that causes darkening of skin. Mometasone Topical is a steroid medicine. It blocks the production of certain chemical messengers (prostaglandins) that make the skin red, swollen and itchy. Tretinoin Topical is a form of vitamin A that helps the skin to renew itself more quickly.
