Extracted from plants such as bearberries, blueberries, and cranberries, alpha arbutin is a safe skin brightening ingredient which helps to fade scars and pigmentation left behind by breakouts and sun damage. 

Alpha arbutin is frequently marketed as a safer alternative to hydroquinone (a popular skin-lightening ingredient that has been banned in Europe and Australia). It has similar results in brightening skin but without the dangerous bleaching process. Instead, it reduces skin’s pigment production by suppressing the enzymes that stimulate melanin. This also slows down the process by which UV light causes pigmentation, so it both prevents and treats pigmentation issues. 

Alpha arbutin application:

1.Alpha arbutin can be used in cosmetic field.

1.Alpha arbutin can be used in medical field.

Medical Field Function

(1) Alpha arbutin powder was first used in medical areas as an anti-inflammatory and antibacterial agent.

(2) Alpha arbutin powderwas used particularly for cystitis, urethritis and pyelitis.

(3) Alpha arbutin powder may be used to repress the virulence of bacterial pathogens and to prevent contaminating bacteria.

(4) Alpha arbutin powder is used for treating allergic inflammation of the skin .

Alpha arbutin works well for all skin types and tones. To boost its benefits, apply it alongside vitamin C, or after exfoliating with an AHA (which will improve its absorption). It can be worn day and/or night, and should be applied to clean dry skin, before moisturising. It’s important to remember that fading pigmentation takes time – you won’t see results straight away but have patience and persevere with daily use.
