Product Description
Alpha Arbutin is a high-performance skin-brightening active that works by inhibiting tyrosinase, the enzyme responsible for melanin production. Derived from the bearberry plant, it’s a safer and more effective alternative to hydroquinone, offering visible results in fading dark spots, melasma, and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation without irritation.
Unlike Beta Arbutin, Alpha Arbutin is 9x more effective in vitro and remains stable in formulations, making it ideal for serums, creams, lotions, and toners targeting uneven skin tone.
