Alpha-Arbutin
A safe and effective ingredient for improving discoloration. Alpha arbutin is a synthesized version of arbutin, a derivative of hydroquinone that’s found in the leaves of plants such as bearberry and cranberry. It works by reducing the activity of tyrosinase (a naturally occurring enzyme that regulates melanin production in the skin) to inhibit melanin production. Alpha arbutin has also been shown to have antioxidant activity that enhances its skin-brightening properties.
