What is Alpha Arbutin?

What is Arbutin? 

 

Arbutin is a natural whitening ingredient used mainly in skin care products and is commonly found in creams, masks and special serums. It is extracted from plants such as cranberry, bearberry and bilberry. Arbutin is able to block the action of tyrosinase, an enzyme that plays a key role in the synthesis of melanin and is one of the causes of age spots.

 

α-Arbutin and β-Arbutin

 

α-Arbutin is considered to be the most effective and highest quality whitening ingredient and is often used in high-end skin care products. In contrast, β-Arbutin is more commonly used in lower-budget skin care products. Here are the main benefits of Arbutin for the skin:

 

Even skin tone

 

Arbutin products are effective in treating various pigmentation problems such as age spots, dark spots, freckles, sun spots, melasma and blemishes caused by skin damage. Arbutin-based creams are safe to use with few contraindications, but should be used with caution by those with sensitive skin.

 

Disinfection and Cleansing

 

Arbutin has an antiseptic effect and can cleanse the skin of toxins, reduce swelling and improve skin elasticity. After using arbutin, the skin will become neater and smoother.

 

Brightens the complexion

 

Arbutin whitens the skin quickly: initial results can be seen within a month of using a cream containing this ingredient. The longer you use it, the brighter your skin becomes. The whitening effect will last as long as you continue to use arbutin-based products. But once you stop using it, the skin will return to its normal state. Therefore, it is best to combine whitening products with treatments recommended by a dermatologist to ensure long-lasting results.

 

Alternative To Hydroquinone

 

Arbutin has replaced hydroquinone as a commonly used whitening agent, as the latter was found to be toxic and carcinogenic. Studies have shown that hydroquinone causes the growth of malignant tumors in test rats. Therefore, many European countries and Japan have banned the use of hydroquinone.

 

Daily Skin Care Options

 

The choice of products containing arbutin depends on the specific problem. If there is pigmentation, sun spots, freckles or skin lesions, it is recommended to use a cream containing arbutin. Apply it to clean skin once a day in the morning and evening, and use it for 4 weeks to see results.

 

Arbutin serum is suitable for localized pigmentation (such as only 1-2 spots) without applying it to the entire face. Serum has a good effect on purple pigmentation caused by acne and melasma.
