Dermaceutic Yellow Cream Dark Spot Corrector
Targeted Dark Spot Corrector for Uneven Pigmentation and Post-Blemish Marks
Dermaceutic Yellow Cream is a concentrated dark spot corrector formulated to visibly reduce localized pigmentation and promote a more even-looking complexion.
Its targeted formula combines kojic acid, alpha-arbutin, licorice extract and Morus alba extracts with the exfoliating action of glycolic and salicylic acids. Together, these ingredients help address excess melanin production while encouraging the removal of accumulated surface cells that can make pigment spots appear more noticeable.
Designed for evening use directly on areas of concern, Yellow Cream is especially beneficial for persistent dark spots, visible sun damage and post-blemish pigmentation.
The vegan and fragrance-free formula does not contain hydroquinone.

How to use
- Before you begin: Apply in the evening to clean, completely dry skin.
- Application: Use a small amount directly on individual dark spots and areas of concentrated pigmentation.
- When introducing Yellow Cream, begin gradually and increase the frequency according to skin tolerance and professional guidance.
- Apply a broad-spectrum SPF 50 every morning and reapply as needed throughout the day.
- To finish: Allow the cream to absorb before applying moisturizer.
- Keep in mind: Avoid applying the cream over the entire face unless specifically recommended by a skincare professional.
- Avoid the eye contour, eyelids, lips and mucous membranes.
- Do not apply to irritated, sensitized or broken skin.

How It Works
Yellow Cream combines ingredients that target visible pigmentation with exfoliating acids that help improve the appearance of the skin’s surface.
- Kojic acid and alpha-arbutin help reduce tyrosinase activity. Tyrosinase is an enzyme involved in melanin production, which contributes to the development of visible pigment spots.
- Licorice, bearberry and Morus alba extracts provide complementary brightening and antioxidant benefits. They help improve the appearance of uneven pigmentation and support a more uniform-looking complexion.
- Glycolic acid exfoliates accumulated surface cells, helping reveal brighter and smoother-looking skin.
- Salicylic acid provides additional exfoliating action and helps refine the appearance of uneven texture and post-blemish marks.
Because Yellow Cream is designed as a concentrated spot corrector, it should be applied directly to areas of pigmentation rather than used as an all-over moisturizer.
How to Use
- Apply in the evening to clean, completely dry skin.
- Use a small amount directly on individual dark spots and areas of concentrated pigmentation.
- Avoid applying the cream over the entire face unless specifically recommended by a skincare professional.
- Avoid the eye contour, eyelids, lips and mucous membranes.
- Allow the cream to absorb before applying moisturizer.
- When introducing Yellow Cream, begin gradually and increase the frequency according to skin tolerance and professional guidance.
- Do not apply to irritated, sensitized or broken skin.
- Avoid layering it in the same routine with retinol, additional exfoliating acids or intensive resurfacing treatments unless professionally advised.
- Apply a broad-spectrum SPF 50 every morning and reapply as needed throughout the day.
- Dermaceutic does not recommend Yellow Cream during pregnancy or breastfeeding.
Loshen & Crem’s Recommendation
Dermaceutic Yellow Cream is best used as a precise spot treatment rather than an all-over brightening cream.
Apply only a very small amount to visible areas of pigmentation. Using more product or extending it beyond the area of concern will not necessarily improve results and may increase sensitivity.
Because the formula combines several brightening ingredients with glycolic and salicylic acids, we recommend introducing it slowly. Keep the remainder of the evening routine simple and follow with a gentle, barrier-supporting moisturizer.
Consistency and sun protection are essential when addressing pigmentation. Daily exposure to UV rays can darken existing spots and contribute to the development of new uneven pigmentation, even when a corrective treatment is being used.
Pigmentation can have several causes. Persistent, rapidly changing or irregular-looking spots should be assessed by a qualified healthcare professional before beginning a cosmetic treatment.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Dermaceutic Yellow Cream used for?
Yellow Cream is a concentrated spot corrector designed to improve the appearance of localized dark spots, uneven pigmentation, visible sun damage and post-blemish marks.
Should Yellow Cream be applied to the entire face?
No. Yellow Cream is designed to be applied directly to individual pigment spots and localized areas of concern. It should not be used as an all-over moisturizer unless recommended by a skincare professional.
Does Yellow Cream contain hydroquinone?
No. Dermaceutic Yellow Cream is formulated without hydroquinone. It uses ingredients such as kojic acid, alpha-arbutin, licorice extract and exfoliating acids to improve the appearance of dark spots.
How often should I use Yellow Cream?
Apply it in the evening. When introducing the product, begin gradually and increase the frequency according to skin tolerance and professional recommendations.
How long does it take to improve dark spots?
Pigmentation changes gradually, and results vary according to the type, depth and cause of the spot. Consistent evening application and daily sunscreen use are essential.
Can Yellow Cream help with post-acne marks?
It may help improve the appearance of brown post-blemish pigmentation. It will not correct indented, raised or textural acne scars.
Can Yellow Cream help with melasma?
Yellow Cream may improve the appearance of localized uneven pigmentation, but melasma is complex and may require a professionally developed skincare and treatment plan.
Can I use Yellow Cream with retinol?
Avoid applying Yellow Cream and retinol in the same evening routine unless advised by a skincare professional. Combining several intensive actives may increase dryness or irritation.
Can I combine Yellow Cream with other exfoliating acids?
Avoid layering it with other AHAs, BHAs, exfoliating toners or intensive resurfacing products in the same routine unless professionally directed.
Is tingling normal when using Yellow Cream?
Temporary mild tingling may occur because the formula contains glycolic and salicylic acids. Reduce the frequency if persistent redness, burning, discomfort or excessive flaking develops.
Can I use Yellow Cream around my eyes?
No. Avoid the eye contour, eyelids and the area immediately beneath the eyes.
Do I need sunscreen while using Yellow Cream?
Yes. Apply a broad-spectrum SPF 50 every morning and reapply as needed. Sun exposure can make existing pigment spots darker and contribute to new uneven pigmentation.
Can Yellow Cream be used during pregnancy or breastfeeding?
No. Dermaceutic does not recommend Yellow Cream during pregnancy or breastfeeding.
Is Yellow Cream suitable for nut allergies?
The formula contains sweet almond oil. Dermaceutic notes that refined cosmetic oils may contain little of the proteins associated with allergic reactions, but anyone with a known nut allergy should consult a healthcare professional before use.
Is Yellow Cream suitable for wheat allergies?
No. Dermaceutic does not recommend Yellow Cream for individuals with wheat allergies because the formula contains wheat germ oil.
Is Yellow Cream fragrance-free?
Yes. Yellow Cream is fragrance-free.
Is Yellow Cream vegan?
Yes. Yellow Cream has a vegan and cruelty-free formula.
