The Dr. Althea Niathione Cream is a dual-purpose brightening and hydrating face cream designed around the brand's "Niathione Complex" — a combination of Niacinamide and Glutathione, two of the most studied and complementary ingredients in skin brightening science. Where Niacinamide works by interrupting the melanin transfer process at the surface and barrier levels, Glutathione acts deeper as an antioxidant, counteracting the oxidative triggers that lead to the formation of dark spots and uneven tone.

Beyond the core brightening actives, the formula brings in additional tone-correction support from Licorice Root Extract — rich in glabridin, which inhibits tyrosinase, the enzyme central to melanin production — and Terminalia Ferdinandiana (Kakadu Plum) Fruit Extract, one of the highest known natural sources of Vitamin C, for further antioxidant and brightening benefit. A light tangerine scent from Citrus Tangerina Extract contributes a fresh, citrus character to the application experience.

Titanium Dioxide gives an immediate, visible soft-brightening effect on application — making this equally suited for use as a daytime tone-up step before makeup or as an evening brightening treatment. Panthenol provides deep humectant hydration and soothes sensitised skin, while Glycerin and Betaine maintain smooth, balanced moisture throughout the day. The lightweight cream texture absorbs comfortably without stickiness or heaviness.
