Hi ,I've got melasma year now and it seemed to get worse....I've tried everything ...recently I bought a cream called ambi skin care at Walgreens ...I've been using it going on day three and its peeling the dark spots right off....I also just had a baby..but it's really bad now honest my face has glow to I use it three times a day ....brown stuff is the only thing that's peeling off and. Also it clearing it right out of my pores....It wouldn't hurt to try....
