The goal of this clinical trial is to establish the efficacy of Cassia alata extract as a cream form in treating tinea versicolor (liver spots/shifting clouds). The main questions the study aims to answer are:• Does the use of this extract help resolve tinea versicolor better than no treatment? Does the use of this cream have significant side effects i.e, is it safe? Participants will be asked to treat a designated area while leaving additional areas untreated. 1-2 finger tip units of cream will be applied to the treatment site twice daily at least 8 hours apart. Participants will attend the trial clinic every 4 weeks for 12 weeks.
