Arbutin Powder is an active ingredient extracted from a rhododendron plant, that is, bearberry leaves. The main function is to inhibit pigment and whiten the skin. The specific mechanism is that it can bind to the tyrosinase of melanocytes in the skin and inhibit the activity of tyrosinase. Tyrosinase is a key enzyme in the synthesis of melanin by skin melanocytes. If the function is inhibited, melanin cannot be produced. The reduction of melanin in the skin has the effect of whitening and lightening, so arbutin is mainly used in skin beauty and lightening. In terms of skin care, the main effect is to inhibit melanin, reduce skin pigmentation, and play freckle, sterilization, and anti-inflammatory effects. It looks pretty good. But arbutin is divided into β-arbutin (Beta-arbutin), α-arbutin (alpha-arbutin) and deoxyarbutin (D-Arbutin) three. α-Arbutin: The inhibitory effect of α-type on tyrosinase activity is about 10-15 times stronger than that of β-type, and it is currently the type with the best effect. Scientists have studied the in vitro inhibitory effect and cytotoxicity of 5 kinds of whitening factors, including arbutin, vitamin C, vitamin C derivatives, hydroquinone, and kojic acid, on tyrosinase activity. The effect is good, the properties are relatively stable, and the cytotoxicity is relatively small.

Side effect
When the concentration of arbutin exceeds 7%, it will not inhibit the production of melanin, but the content of melanin will increase, so you need to pay attention to the concentration of arbutin when using it. When the skin is irradiated by ultraviolet rays, the epidermal cells are damaged, the tyrosinase in the skin is activated, and the pigment cells will synthesize and secrete melanin.
Arbutin is a whitening ingredient that can inhibit the activity of tyrosinase, thereby blocking the production of melanin. Arbutin itself combines with tyrosinase to accelerate the decomposition and metabolism of melanin, reduce skin pigmentation, and remove color. It also has bactericidal and anti-inflammatory properties, making it an ideal whitening and freckle-removing ingredient.
Although arbutin is good, there are still some problems that need to be paid attention to when using it. Studies have shown that when the concentration of arbutin is too high, reaching more than 7%, the whitening effect will be lost, and it will not inhibit the production of melanin, but will cause Melanin increases, so when using this type of product daily, pay attention to choosing a concentration below 7%. Using this type of product can help whitening, but it is not enough to rely on it.
