Description

La Roche-Posay MELA B3 Clarifying Micro-Peeling Gel is a gentle exfoliating cleanser that purifies and renews the skin for an even tone and smoother texture. Suitable for hyperpigmentation, including sensitive skin.

Key ingredients include Melasyl™, a new-generation patented active ingredient that intercepts excess melanin at various stages of its production, preventing the appearance of pigment irregularities. Niacinamide is proven to brighten dark marks and pigmentation. Gluconolactone, a Polyhydroxy Acid (PHA), gently exfoliates, making skin appear smoother and brighter. Hypoallergenic. Dermatologically tested. Contains a fragrance.

Dr Webster’s Recommendation: With its lightweight foaming texture, La Roche-Posay MELA B3 Clarifying Micro-Peeling Gel offers micro-exfoliating ingredients that stimulate the skin’s natural cell renewal process. This targeted cleanser contains multi-patented Melasyl™ and Niacinamide, which have been shown to reduce the appearance of imperfections and leave skin looking brighter and smoother.

    I have been using the Pigmentclar foaming cleaner for years and love it and have recommended it to others who also fell in love with the product. So, it is very sad that La Roche Posay discontinued it. As a replacement Mela B3 has not impressed me. It does not compare. The texture is that of a regular soap and not the velvety texture of the Pigmentclar. I have tried it but it is not for me. I will not buy it again.
