KrX Mela Défense Brightening Cream

$54.00

This is a good fit for you if your skin carries the aftermath of old breakouts, sun exposure, or melasma — not active blemishes, but the marks they left behind — and you want a daily moisturizer that fades that discoloration while it hydrates.

KrX Mela Défense Brightening Cream is built around 5% tranexamic acid and 3% niacinamide, a pairing chosen to interrupt melanin production at the source rather than just brightening on the surface. RiFerm-NPG™, a COSMOS-certified fermented rice water complex rooted in Hanbang tradition, adds antioxidant support and a softness that keeps the formula gentle enough to layer even around a peel — a rare combination for an actives-forward brightening cream.

Ideal for melasma, sun-triggered pigmentation, and post-acne marks that just won't fade on their own. Formulated for consistent daily use rather than a short-term fix, so results build with time instead of demanding a break between treatments.

How to use: Apply as the final step in your routine, after serums and ampoules. Use morning and night for consistent melanin regulation.

Esthetician tip: Pair this with KrX Mela Defense Whitening Serum for a full brightening protocol — the serum delivers concentrated tranexamic acid and niacinamide, this cream locks it in and keeps the barrier comfortable through the process.
