Quinsia Anti-Melasma Face Wash with Niacinamide/ Tranexamic Acid & Calendula Flower Extract 120ml120ml

Key Ingredients

• Niacinamide — brightening active, supports a more even skin tone and helps target the look of dark/melasma patches
• Tranexamic Acid — brightening active often used specifically to help address the appearance of melasma and hyperpigmentation
• Methylparaben — preservative confirmed present on the verified ingredient list (see sourcing note regarding the brand's own "paraben-free" marketing claim)
• Standard cleansing-base ingredients (surfactants, thickeners, and stabilizers typical of a facial wash formulation)

Key Features

• Face wash formulated around Niacinamide and Tranexamic Acid, positioned by the brand as an anti-melasma cleanser
• 120ml pump/tube format intended for daily facial cleansing
• Marketed for use as part of a routine targeting uneven skin tone and dark patches

Benefits

• Niacinamide and Tranexamic Acid are both commonly used in skincare to help support a more even-looking complexion over consistent use
• Formulated as a cleanser, so it is intended to work alongside (not replace) other targeted anti-melasma treatments such as serums or creams
• Designed for daily use as a gentle first step in a brightening-focused routine

Who Can Use This Product

• Adults looking for a cleansing step that complements a melasma/dark-patch-focused skincare routine
• Not recommended for anyone with a known sensitivity to Niacinamide, Tranexamic Acid, or parabens without first patch-testing (see sourcing note on Methylparaben)
• Pregnant or breastfeeding individuals should consult a doctor before using Tranexamic-Acid-containing products, and anyone with diagnosed melasma should ideally get a dermatologist's guidance for their overall treatment plan

How to Use

• Wet the face with water, apply a small amount of the face wash, and massage gently in circular motions
• Avoid direct contact with the eyes; rinse immediately with water if contact occurs
• Rinse thoroughly and follow with the rest of your skincare routine, including a daytime sunscreen, since managing melasma also depends heavily on consistent sun protection
• Use once or twice daily as part of a regular cleansing routine

Storage & Safety

• Store in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight
• Keep the cap/pump tightly closed after use
• Discontinue use and consult a doctor if irritation, redness, or a burning sensation occurs
• Keep out of reach of children
• Sourcing note: MedEasy cross-checked the ingredient list on Quinsia's own official website against an independent retailer (myqbeaute.com), and both sources agree on the same formula for this face wash. Two discrepancies are important to disclose. First, the catalog product name includes "Calendula Flower Extract," but this ingredient does NOT appear on the verified ingredient list from either source — MedEasy could not confirm Calendula Flower Extract is actually present in this formula, despite it being named in the product title. Second, Quinsia markets the product/brand as "paraben-free" in some marketing copy, but the same verified ingredient list includes Methylparaben as a preservative — this is a direct contradiction between the brand's own marketing claim and its own disclosed ingredient list, and MedEasy is disclosing it here rather than resolving it in either direction.

FAQ (Frequently Asked Questions)

Q: Does this face wash contain Calendula Flower Extract, as the product name suggests?

A: The product name references Calendula Flower Extract, but MedEasy's sourcing review of the verified ingredient list from the brand's own website and an independent retailer did not find Calendula Flower Extract listed. This discrepancy could not be resolved and is disclosed here for transparency.

Q: Is this product paraben-free?

A: The brand markets it as paraben-free in some materials, but the verified ingredient list includes Methylparaben. MedEasy is disclosing this contradiction rather than confirming either claim.

Q: Can this be used by someone with melasma?

A: It is marketed for that purpose, built around Niacinamide and Tranexamic Acid, but anyone with diagnosed melasma should ideally follow a dermatologist's full treatment plan, which this cleanser can complement.

Q: Do I still need sunscreen if I use this?

A: Yes. Daily broad-spectrum sunscreen is essential for managing melasma and dark patches, regardless of which cleanser or treatment is used.

Q: How often should I use this face wash?

A: Typically once or twice daily as part of a regular cleansing routine.
