About I-Glownight Cream

I-Glownight Cream is primarily used to treat melasma (dark brown patches on the skin). Melasma, also known as chloasma, is a common skin condition that causes brown patches on the face.

I-Glownight Cream contains Fluocinolone acetonide, Hydroquinone and Tretinoin. Fluocinolone acetonide blocks the production of certain chemical messengers that make the skin red, swollen, and itchy. Hydroquinone decreases the amount of melanin (a skin pigment) that is responsible for the darkening of the skin. Tretinoin increases the renewal of skin cells, which helps in the natural exfoliation of the skin’s outer layers.

Some people may experience application site reactions (burning, irritation, itching, and redness). Most of these side effects of I-Glownight Cream do not require medical attention and gradually resolve over time. However, if the side effects persist or worsen, please consult your doctor.

If you are allergic to I-Glownight Cream or any other medicines, please tell your doctor. If you are pregnant, a nursing mother or planning for pregnancy, it is advised to consult a doctor before using I-Glownight Cream. I-Glownight Cream is not recommended for children below 12 years of age . Do not apply I-Glownight Cream to ulcerated skin or wounds.

Health Queries

My dark circles and under-eye bags appeared suddenly over the last 2 years, even though I did not have any major illness during this time. Which under-eye cream may help reduce them?

Vikas Singh

Dark circles and under-eye bags that appear slowly over 1 to 2 years are often related to poor sleep, stress, long screen time, allergies, dehydration, ageing, or family tendency rather than a serious illness. Thin skin under the eyes can also make blood vessels and puffiness appear more noticeable over time. Under-eye creams containing caffeine, vitamin C, peptides, hyaluronic acid, or retinol may help improve puffiness and dark circles gradually. Caffeine-based creams are commonly used for swelling, while retinol and peptide creams may support smoother and brighter under-eye skin. Improvement is usually slow and may take several weeks with regular use. Apply the cream gently without rubbing the delicate skin. Getting proper sleep, reducing late-night mobile use, drinking enough water, and using sunscreen daily around the eyes may also help reduce worsening. Consult your doctor if swelling becomes severe, painful, or suddenly increases.

I have melasma on my face and want to safely reduce the dark patches. What treatment or skincare can help remove melasma and improve my skin tone?

Vikas Singh

M Pharmacy

Melasma causes dark patches on the face and commonly develops because of sun exposure, hormonal changes, heat, stress, genetics, pregnancy, thyroid problems, or the use of certain cosmetics. The pigmentation usually appears on the cheeks, forehead, nose, or upper lip and may become darker with sunlight and heat exposure. Improvement is often gradual and may take several weeks or months with consistent skin care. Daily sunscreen use is one of the most important steps in controlling melasma because sunlight can worsen pigmentation repeatedly. Broad-spectrum sunscreen, protective clothing, hats, and avoiding excessive sun exposure may help prevent darkening further. Doctors sometimes advise creams containing ingredients such as azelaic acid, kojic acid, niacinamide, glycolic acid, or hydroquinone, depending on skin type and severity. Gentle cleansers and moisturisers may also help support skin barrier health. Avoid harsh scrubbing, frequent bleaching, steroid-containing fairness creams, or trying many products together because these may irritate the skin and worsen pigmentation. Proper sleep, stress control, and hydration may also support healthier-looking skin over time. Consult a dermatologist for a personalised treatment plan if the patches continue spreading or darkening.
