What it is

Melasma appears as patches darker than your natural skin tone, often on the face. It can develop during pregnancy, although pregnancy is not its only trigger.

For days when you want a more even-looking result, apply a light layer of coverage and build selectively over darker areas. Coverage can make melasma less noticeable while worn; it does not treat the condition.

If you are pregnant or breastfeeding, ask your healthcare professional to review your chosen product’s ingredient list.
