hi there.
1. your concern is irritant contact dermatitis
2. its due to kojic acid present in the depiwhite cream.
3. stop using the cream until redness subsides.
4.start using any glycerine based moisturiser and good sunscreen of spf 50 during day time.
5. if redness persist even after 48 hours of stopping of depiwhite, then consult the dermatologist who guided you.
otherwise you can restart depiwhite once redness subsides.
this will help you
