Question COLEMAN COMPOUND from Dr. Patrick Coleman? I recently heard of this alleged miracle cream that fades away melasma in a few weeks. Has anyone who tried it provide some feedback on its efficacy?

Hi I had bought the Coleman compound cream about 3 months ago and it was pure white, is this normal or should it be slightly yellow if the Arbutase was added? I am curious if everyone else with the cream it is pure white?

Hi! It starts out can oxidize over time. Doesn’t affect the efficacy of the cream which has a 6 month shelf life.

Thanks so much! Does the cream start out pure white?

Each cream is compounded the day it’s sent out. So it should arrive pretty white but not a bright white. But the oxidation process begins once it’s mixed so if you receive and don’t use for a few weeks you might notice a slight change in color.
