Lookalike marketplace creams often leave out the strengths that matter. Check the label for 4% tranexamic acid and 7% arbutin before you buy.
For the pregnancy mask that never faded. 4% tranexamic acid helps quiet the signal that keeps pigment cells overproducing, and 7% arbutin slows the enzyme that makes pigment. Use daily under SPF.
Apply a pea-sized amount to clean, dry skin and massage in. In the morning, finish with SPF 30+ every day. Sensitive skin? Start every other night for the first week.
Key actives: Tranexamic Acid 4%, Arbutin 7%.
Full ingredients list coming soon.
Please wait until you've finished, or check with your doctor or midwife first. Unmask is made for the patches that stayed after.
Dispatched within 1–2 working days. Most orders arrive 6–10 working days after dispatch (up to 15 for some international destinations), with tracking. Free shipping on Buy 2 Get 2 Free and above.

“I tried everything for the patches on my cheeks after my son. Nothing moved them until this. Eight weeks and I'm not reaching for concealer anymore.”
“Patch on my cheek showed under every foundation I owned. Eight weeks in and I barely reach for concealer anymore.”
“Pregnancy mask covered half my face. My skin looks better now than it did before I was pregnant.”
“Two pregnancies left me with patches I thought I was stuck with. Four weeks in and there's a visible difference.”
Your skin gets used to the actives. Use it every day and never skip the SPF.
Take a photo in the same light each week. This is when patches usually start to look lighter.
Melasma likes to come back with sun and heat, so keep the cream and SPF in your daily routine.
Melasma after pregnancy isn't a normal dark spot. Hormones keep pigment cells switched on, so Unmask uses actives that work on how pigment is made, not just the surface.
After pregnancy, a messenger in the skin called plasmin can keep telling pigment cells to make more. Tranexamic acid helps calm that signal, for a more even-looking tone.
Slows tyrosinase, the enzyme that makes pigment, so patches get a chance to fade instead of being topped up.
Not in the tube, but part of the routine. SPF keeps the sun from undoing the work while the cream gets on with it.
Answers to common questions about Unmask, shipping and returns.
We'd suggest waiting until you've finished, or checking with your doctor or midwife first.
Melasma is stubborn. Give it a full 8 weeks of daily use, always with SPF.
Nothing can promise that. Melasma can be faded and managed, but it can come back with sun, heat or hormones, which is why daily use plus SPF matters.
Each tube lasts around 4 weeks of daily use. Buy 1 Get 1 Free gives you 2 tubes, about 8 weeks.
Yes. Apply after cleansing and before moisturiser and SPF.

The patches on my forehead have faded loads. Happy with it.
4 weeks in and I can already tell it's working. Will keep going.
He asked what I'd been doing differently. That's the review really.
Really self-conscious about the dark patch above my lip after having my daughter. Two months later it's so much lighter. Can't believe it honestly.
Sinks in fast. No stinging even on my sensitive skin.
You need the full 8 weeks. Patches on my cheeks are noticeably lighter. Get more than one tube so you don't run out mid-routine.
This actually works. That didn't.
Not sure exactly when it clicked but my skin just looks better now.
Patches aren't completely gone but definitely lighter. Steady progress, just don't expect overnight results.
One tube lasted about 5 weeks. Ordered the next one before I ran out.
That was my main worry. No issues at all. And it's working on my patches too.
Skipped SPF for a week and saw the patches creeping back. Strict about it now and the cream is doing its job.
Glad I tried this first. 7 weeks in and the patches have faded enough that I don't feel like I need anything else right now. Saving myself a lot of money.
Which I was already doing. This cream has made a real difference after about 6 weeks. Glad I found it.
The patches were making my base look patchy. Now my skin tone is even and I barely need coverage.
Didn't see much the first 3 weeks and nearly gave up. By week 7 the patches had visibly faded. Glad I kept going.
The classic cheek and forehead patches from pregnancy. They've faded loads. I thought postpartum melasma was just something you had to live with. You don't. On my second tube now.
Stubborn melasma from two pregnancies. Not gone but a lot lighter after 10 weeks. Just needed longer than 8 weeks for my skin.
Started taking photos in the same light each week. Pleasantly surprised how quickly it started working.
Tried it anyway. My overall skin tone looks so much more even now. The patches on my cheeks are barely noticeable.
Honestly obsessed with how it looks now compared to 2 months ago.
Still using it and still seeing improvement. Melasma is a long game but this is the right product.
Bought it on a whim after seeing it recommended in a mums group. Best skincare decision I've made.
My melasma is on my temples which I thought was unusual. Definitely noticeably lighter after 8 weeks.
Used morning and night for 8 weeks. The patches on my cheeks are so much lighter. Absolutely worth it.
Can't believe I put up with it for that long before trying this.
Best it has since before I was pregnant. Made such a difference to my confidence.
That says it all really.
Gentle formula. Was really worried about this but no flare ups. Patches are fading too.
Finally got the confidence to go makeup-free. Small thing but it means a lot after years of covering up.
Dark patches on my chin are so much lighter after 9 weeks. Really pleased.
She's obsessed with it. Both of us seeing results.
Used it on one cheek for 6 weeks as a test. The difference between sides is visible. That's all the proof I needed.
Works under SPF no problem. One less thing to think about.
