Take the skin test and I'll show you how suitable this product is for you.
Take the skin testAchieve a brighter, more even complexion with Dr.Melaxin TX Cream, a skincare powerhouse infused with Tranexamic Acid (TX) to target dark spots, freckles, and hyperpigmentation. This advanced formula minimizes melanin production for visibly clearer and more radiant skin. Enriched with Niacinamide to smooth aging spots, Hyaluronic Acid to lock in moisture, and Collagen Peptides to enhance elasticity, it deeply nourishes while reducing pore appearance. Its soft, creamy texture balances oil and moisture levels, leaving skin hydrated and supple.
TX Cream is a cushioning cream from Dr.Melaxin. The formula is built mainly around hydration. The ingredient list runs to 42 ingredients, each broken down in full below.
By its ingredient list the formula reads as moderately cushioned — emollient enough to feel like a cream, without the heaviest occlusives near the top. Silicones in the formula tend to give a smooth, blurred finish and help it grip under makeup. Hydration is handled by Butylene Glycol, Panthenol and Sodium Hyaluronate, humectants that pull water into the upper layers of skin rather than sealing it there.
Hydration: Very high. Ingredients that pull and hold water in the upper layers of skin, and here that comes from Butylene Glycol, Panthenol, Sodium Hyaluronate and Glycerin.
Soothing: Moderate. Ingredients aimed at visible redness and reactivity, and here that comes from Panthenol, Allantoin, Cetyl Ethylhexanoate and Butyrospermum Parkii Butter.
Barrier support: Moderate. Lipids and repair signals that support skin barrier integrity, and here that comes from Butyrospermum Parkii Butter, Glucosyl Ceramide NP, Panthenol and Hydrogenated Lecithin.
Brightening: Moderate. Ingredients that act on uneven tone and post-inflammatory marks, and here that comes from Tranexamic Acid and Acetyl Glucosamine.
On richness alone it suits Balanced skin best, and is the least natural fit for Dry, Combination (dry), Combination (oily) and Oily skin. Nothing in the list is flagged as a common irritant, which is a reasonable starting point for reactive skin — though a patch test is still the only way to know.
The formula contributes little or nothing on antioxidant protection, oil control and cell renewal. That is not a fault — most products are not meant to do everything — but if one of those is your priority, this is not the product that will address it.
Reading the full list, the formula is fragrance-free, essential-oil-free, no drying alcohol, paraben-free, microplastic-free and sulfate-free. Those claims come from the ingredient list itself, not from the packaging.
It can be used morning and evening. In a routine it goes after serums. Seal in your serums with it; in the morning, sunscreen still goes on top.
This summary is generated from the product's ingredient list. It is not a review, it is not the brand's own marketing claims, and it does not replace advice from a dermatologist.
Drawn purely from the ingredient list
