Benefits of arbutin for skin care

THIỆN NHÂN (THEO onlymyhealth) |

Arbutin is a natural compound extracted from plants, which helps fade dark spots and reduce uneven skin tone.

What is Arbutin?

Arbutin is a natural extract from plants such as bearberry, cranberry, pear, and blueberry. It works by blocking the enzyme tyrosinase, which helps control melanin production and reduce dark spots on the skin. However, the effectiveness of arbutin depends on the amount used.

Unlike more potent depigmenting agents, arbutin works gradually and is suitable for sensitive or reactive skin. It can improve many types of hyperpigmentation, including:

Sun spots caused by prolonged exposure to UV rays.

Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation, as seen with acne or skin damage.

Melasma, often caused by hormonal changes.

Benefits of arbutin for skin

Arbutin offers many benefits, making it a popular choice for addressing pigmentation issues:

Lightens dark spots: Arbutin helps to gradually lighten existing dark spots, making skin more even-toned.

Prevents future pigmentation: By inhibiting melanin production, arbutin helps prevent the formation of new spots.

Gentle on skin: Unlike hydroquinone, arbutin is less likely to cause redness, dryness, or irritation.

Brighten Skin: Enhances skin radiance, leaving your face looking fresh and healthy.

Safe for Daily Use: Arbutin can be used day and night without significant risk, as long as you follow proper skin care instructions.

How to use arbutin in your skin care routine

Choose the right product: Arbutin comes in serums, creams, and gels. Serums penetrate deep into the skin and are most effective. Choose a product with a concentration of 1% to 2% for best results.

Cleanse skin first: Always start with clean skin. Use a gentle cleanser to remove dirt and oil before applying arbutin.

Apply to the area to be treated: Apply a small amount of arbutin to the area to be treated. If your skin tone is uneven, you can apply a thin layer to your entire face.

Apply a layer of moisturizer: After applying arbutin, remember to apply moisturizer to keep your skin hydrated. If using during the day, don't forget to apply sunscreen to protect your skin from UV rays and prevent pigmentation.
