Twinkle Cream

Twinkle Cream is a topical medication that combines Hydroquinone (2%), Mometasone (0.1%), and Tretinoin (0.025%) to address various skin conditions, including hyperpigmentation, melasma, and acne. Hydroquinone works as a skin-lightening agent by inhibiting melanin production, while Mometasone, a corticosteroid, reduces inflammation and redness. Tretinoin, a form of Vitamin A, helps to exfoliate the skin and prevent clogged pores. Together, these ingredients provide a comprehensive solution for evening out skin tone and promoting clear, healthy skin.
