What is Alpha-Arbutin?
Arbutin has this effect when it reacts with melanin, the natural pigment in your skin. When skin produces excess melanin, hyperpigmentation — that is, spots where skin is darker) — can occur.
Sun exposure, pregnancy, or the use of certain medications may cause hyperpigmentation. But arbutin acts on the melanin pathway to suppress melanin activity
What is the difference between Alpha-Arbutin and Beta-Arbutin?
When scouting skin-care labels, you might come across some products that contain alpha-arbutin or deoxyarbutin and some that contain beta-arbutin. Alpha-arbutin and deoxyarbutin are synthetic forms of arbutin, while beta-arbutin is the plant-derived form of arbutin.
Both forms of arbutin suppress melanin production, but studies have shown that alpha-arbutin is more stable and is estimated to be more than 10 times stronger than beta-arbutin.
