Skinbrite Cream contains Hydroquinone, Mometasone and Tretinoin. Hydroquinone is a skin-lightening agent that works by decreasing the amount of melanin (a skin pigment) that is responsible for the darkening of the skin. Mometasone is a corticosteroid that acts inside skin cells and inhibits the release of certain chemical messengers in the body that cause redness, itching and swelling. Tretinoin belongs to the class of retinoids (synthetic vitamin A) and works by increasing the renewal of skin cells, which helps with the natural exfoliation of the skin's outer layers.
