I have rosacea-prone cheeks as well as melasma this helps and i use in combi with more specialised (heavier) treatments and this is a nice soothing SPF. Derma also said it looks really good.

My first impression was simply 'nice cleanser.' My opinion changed after I realized I'd used it every single day for two months without one irritation flare.

I've tried EltaMD, Colorscience, Australian Gold and a bunch of Korean sunscreens. This is honestly the nicest mineral formula I've used. It feels like a watery serum instead of a thick sunscreen.

Mela 100 | Dark Spot Correcting Serum
★ ★ ★ ★ ★
I took proper before pictures this time, thankfully. For me, i realised that examining the same patch from five centimetres away every morning was a terrible way to measure anything. I took a starting photo, used the serum with moisturiser and sunscreen, wore sunscreen and tried to leave my face alone. After roughly seven weeks, the sun damage showing up as brown patches looks calmer and more blended with the rest of my skin. Personally, i still have normal texture and uneven bits, but I’m much less consumed by them.

My bathroom used to have a moisturizer, serum and sunscreen sitting on the counter. Now it's just this bottle. My mornings are a lot simpler.

I didn't want another product that made my face peel or sting. This cleans thoroughly but still feels comfortable, even when my skin is sensitive.

I have been using this serum for the past 6 months. It has made such a tremendous difference, way more than any treatments that always came back after you stopped.

This is one of the few brightening products I can use when my skin barrier is feeling a little sensitive. I just reduce the rest of my actives and keep the cleanser.

I don't wear makeup at all. 1) easy to apply 2) doesn't annoy my skin 3) works with the rest of Fantony. The big thing for me is sun damage. keeping it.

Concern: the patchy pigmentation I was left with after having children. Result: doesn’t jump out at me in photos anymore. Routine: only on the areas that bother me. Time using it: most of the summer. For me, i’d recommend taking a starting photo because day-to-day memory is useless.

I noticed the sun damage showing up as brown patches most in daylight, which was irritating. For me, i’m fairly conservative with skincare, so I introduced it without changing anything else. I was specifically watching pigmentation that always looks worse after summer. I used it with moisturiser and sunscreen; after six-ish weeks, looks more even without foundation. Personally, i had no need to stop because of irritation, and keeping the rest of the routine stable made the change easier to judge.

I’m terrible at sticking to complicated routines. But this one is easy to work into my routine, no irritation for me, and the darker spots I pick up every sunny holiday has softened around the edges. My one reservation is speed the deepest mark still needs work. For me the benefits easily beat the minor drawbacks.

Summer normally wrecks my progress. I'm not crediting SPF with fading spots, but I am crediting it with helping me stop undoing progress. done.

The bundle looked like a lot of money upfront, but I had a drawer full of half-used products already. Having three things I consistently use has worked much better for me.

I would rather use a moderate product consistently than a harsh one twice. That is basically why this has done better for me than retinoids. About five weeks in, the darker patch in the middle of my forehead is clearly less obvious. For me, i’ve tried to keep this fair by not changing half my bathroom cabinet at the same time. Before this I had bounced between vitamin C and whatever was being recommended that month. For this test I kept the boring basics stable, used the treatment four or five nights a week, and watched the same areas instead of chasing overall ‘glow’. That made the improvement in pigmentation across my forehead much easier to judge.

Okay, I did not expect to care this much about a face wash 😂 I bought the Fantony bundle for my melasma, but MelaRinse is probably the reason I've actually stayed consistent. Quick, gentle and my skin feels soft after.

This has a permanent spot next to my sink now. I don't have to convince myself to use it, which sounds small but matters when results depend on consistency.

I use it on my neck now too. It behaves under my makeup, which is where most SPFs lose me. not glamorous but useful.

I've tried harsh scrubs and acids for my sun spots before and always regretted it. MelaRinse feels much kinder to my sensitive skin and fits easily into my routine.

This has done what I hoped without becoming a project. Patchy tone around my chin and mouth doesn’t jump out at me in photos anymore. I intend to keep using it.

My melasma gets worse every summer, so I'm very careful with my skincare. This cleanser feels gentle enough for daily use and works nicely alongside the rest of my routine.

I packed this almost absent-mindedly for a trip, used it as normal, then realised in a brutally bright hotel mirror that my complexion looked more even. Nice surprise.

63 and very aware that decades of sunshine won't vanish in a month. I appreciate that this routine feels realistic. The cleanser Mela rinse keeps my skin comfortable, Mela 100 is easy to layer, and I never skip Mela UV now.

I’d almost accepted post-pregnancy melasma across my cheeks as something I just had to cover. I used it consistently in the evening; by most of the summer, the lighter spots had shifted more than the deepest area. For me, i’m very satisfied with that kind of realistic improvement. Personally, the biggest lesson for me has been not to confuse irritation with effectiveness. In my experience, i used to think a product had to tingle, peel or make my face feel tight to be doing something. On my skin, this has been much less dramatic. Over for nine weeks, the colour has softened while my skin has stayed comfortable, and that trade-off suits me far better.

My wife has been telling me to use skincare for years, but I could never be bothered with a long routine. This is easy enough that I have no excuse.
