Cosmate®ABT,Alpha Arbutin powder is a new type whitening agent with an alpha glucoside keys of hydroquinone glycosidase. As the fade color composition in cosmetics, alpha arbutin can effectively inhibit the activity of tyrosinase in the human body. Cosmate®ABT,Alpha-Arbutin is extracted from bearberry or synthetized by Hydroquinone.It is a biosynthetic active ingredient that is pure, water-soluble and is manufactured in a powder form. As one of the most advanced skin lightening ingredients on the market, it has been shown to work effectively on all skin types.
Alpha Arbutin is a naturally derived skin-brightening agent, synthesized from hydroquinone and glucose. It is extracted from plants such as bearberry, blueberry, and cranberry. Alpha Arbutin is widely used in skincare for its ability to reduce hyperpigmentation, dark spots, and uneven skin tone. It works by inhibiting tyrosinase activity, which slows down melanin production, making it a safer and more stable alternative to hydroquinone. Its gentle and effective nature makes it suitable for all skin types, including sensitive skin.
Key Functions of Alpha Arbutin
Skin Brightening: Inhibits tyrosinase activity, reducing melanin synthesis and improving the appearance of dark spots and hyperpigmentation.
Even Skin Tone: Helps fade discoloration and promotes a more uniform complexion.
Gentle Exfoliation: Supports the natural turnover of skin cells, enhancing radiance and clarity.
Antioxidant Properties: Provides mild antioxidant protection, helping to combat free radical damage.
Safe for Sensitive Skin: Less irritating compared to other brightening agents like hydroquinone, making it suitable for sensitive skin types.
Alpha Arbutin Mechanism of Action
Alpha Arbutin works by competitively inhibiting tyrosinase, the enzyme responsible for converting tyrosine into melanin. This reduces the production of melanin in the skin, leading to a lighter and more even complexion. It gradually releases hydroquinone in small, controlled amounts, ensuring efficacy without the risks associated with direct hydroquinone use. Additionally, its antioxidant properties help protect the skin from oxidative stress caused by UV exposure and environmental pollutants.
