Hello and welcome to healthcaremagic

Skinlite cream contain a potent steroid, mometasone along with tretinoin and hydroquinone. This combination is mostly used by dermatologists for melasma/pigmentation.

It should never be used without the prescription of a dermatologist and in any case never as a fairness cream.

Side effects of indiscriminate use are acne, skin thinning, telangiectasis, sun sensitivity/photosensitivity, facial hair growth/hirsutism(specially troublesome in females) etc.

I would advice you to stop it now!

Always consult a dermatologist before you use a cream. Your Dermatologist knows the best for you.
