Beta Arbutin

Beta Arbutin is extracted from the leaves of the bearberry plant and is a popular skin-lightening agent. It works by inhibiting tyrosinase activity to prevent melanin production, helping reduce hyperpigmentation, spots, and freckles. Known for its sterilisation and anti-inflammatory properties, Beta Arbutin protects the skin from pigmentation caused by UV rays. This white crystalline, water-soluble powder offers the same benefits as hydroquinone with reduced irritation and cytotoxicity.
