Skintas Shine Cream is a combination of three medicines: Hydroquinone, Mometasone and Tretinoin. Hydroquinone is a skin lightening medicine. It reduces the amount of a skin pigment (melanin) that causes darkening of skin. This effect is reversible. Mometasone is a steroid which blocks the production of certain chemical messengers (prostaglandins) that make the skin red, swollen and itchy. Tretinoin is a form of vitamin A that helps the skin to renew itself more quickly.

Skintas Shine Cream is used for the short-term treatment of mild to moderate melasma. It helps reduce scars, marks, blemishes, and dark circles under the eyes. It should always be used along with sun-avoidance measures like using sunscreens and wearing protective clothing. Apply and massage gently till the cream is fully absorbed once daily at night. Initial improvement may be seen in just 2 weeks, full results generally appear after 2-3 months of regular use.
