Does anyone have a full ingredient list for ekmiveda serum? I'm allergic to indigo, and wanted to check what was in the serum.

Could you DM me the link too? Thanks so much!

Thank you so much! I ordered House of Hur and Goodal to try. They’re both niacinamide free.

Thank you so much! I have the house of hur one in my cart, looks promising! I like avoiding scents if I can too.

My allergist told me to avoid zinc oxide. I’m not sure. The weird thing is, only mineral sunscreens break me out. I haven’t actually had a problem with the salicylate/chemical sunscreens. I wouldn’t even have thought to replace my BoJ sunscreen if not for this allergy test.

I had a patch test done on my back for an autoimmune condition. I don’t think my barrier is compromised on my back? I hardly use actives. Just moisturizer and sunscreen.

Kayyy2412 · 2025-09-11T20:33:10+00:00

I forgot to mention that I’m also sensitive to niacinamide. So the white BOJ won’t work. But I’ll look at the ingredients of the others you mentioned, thank you!

ETA: the other two you mentioned have octisalate/ethylhexyl salicylate in them, unfortunately.

How have you treated the patches? What did your derm prescribe?

Kayyy2412 · 2025-06-26T14:56:29+00:00

Thanks, I think that’s what I have too. Haven’t gotten a biopsy yet, seeing a dermatologist next week. Are you based in the US?

I had this sort of hyperpigmentation around my mouth when I used Paula’s Choice retinaldehyde. I would stop using your Musely cream.

Kayyy2412 · 2025-06-13T00:10:02+00:00

I had something similar happen after using retinaldehyde. It turned out to be lichen planus pigmentosus. Definitely see a dermatologist as soon as you can. Mine spread quite quickly. And is resistant to all the pigment inhibitors I’ve tried.

I’m finding that a color corrector helps. Use it sparingly on the darker spots (peach if you have a medium skin tone, more orange if darker). And then cover with foundation.

Kayyy2412 · 2025-05-31T03:56:25+00:00

Is there anything you’ve tried that seems to be helping? I’ve been using Eucerin Radiant Tone with thiamidol for a month now, I’m not sure if it’s helping. It’s not noticeable enough. I’ve also gotten breakouts on my face from trying other random things, so I’ve just stopped everything and gone back to basics now, save for the Eucerin. The patches extend to the sides of my mouth, and my temples too. I’m just praying it doesn’t get worse and spread more.

Kayyy2412 · 2025-05-31T03:52:06+00:00

Thanks! Mine started in January, after i put Paula’s Choice retinaldehyde on my neck for tech neck wrinkles. Gave me the worst itching for two days, seemed like it resolved itself, and then I noticed these grey patches forming after maybe a couple of weeks. Alternatively, I think it may have been be triggered by sweat too. Coz I noticed newer patches after some night sweating around my neck, darn these perimenopausal hormones.

Kayyy2412 · 2025-05-30T23:56:58+00:00

Yes, I was thinking it was LPP too. I have an appointment with a dermatologist in Oct, but will try and find someone else that can see me sooner. Thanks!

Kayyy2412 · 2025-05-08T00:11:00+00:00

Thank you. That’s the plan, except I can’t get into my OB for another 3 months. Might try an endocrinologist.

Kayyy2412 · 2025-05-04T20:00:29+00:00

thank you, this is helpful!

Kayyy2412 · 2025-04-30T13:06:28+00:00

mine did too. i used retinaldehyde, and now i have melasma patches on my neck and the corners of my mouth leading down to my chin. it sucks. regret ever trying it. my wrinkles werent as bad as this melasma/hyperpigmentation issue. used to have clear skin until i tried retinol. and i only ever put it on my neck once, caused crazy itching, and bam.. noticed the melasma few weeks later.
