Description

What Is Alpha Arbutin Powder?
Alpha Arbutin is derived from the bearberry plant, and unlike hydroquinone, it has no negative side effects on the skin. When applied topically, it is known to inhibit tyrosinase activity, and prevent the formation of melanin. Compared to Beta Arbutin, Alpha Arbutin is more stable, and also more expensive to manufacture. Due to its effect on the tyrosinase enzyme, and it's ability to be used safely, dermatologists consider Alpha Arbutin the safest option to skin lightening and minimizing dark spots.
Although it is effective just on its own, when paired with other natural skin lightening agents, such as Vitamin C, Niacinamide, and Kojic Acid, it has a much more potent skin lightening effect on the skin. Alpha Arbutin is a water-soluble compound that can be added to your natural skin lightening lotion/base lotion to create a natural skin lightening effect on the skin.
Compatibility
Alpha Arbutin powder is compatible with SepiWhite, GigaWhite, Vitamin C, L-Glutathione, Kojic Acid, and Kojic Dipalmitate.
Note: Avoid mixing too many powders into one lotion, aim for no more than 3 active skin lightening ingredients in one formulation.

-Percentage & Usage
You should aim to use no more than 2-5% of any of our skin lightening additives in a single formulation. Using more than necessary can be counterproductive. Calculating percentages in a lotion is very straightforward, and guidelines have been shown below.
To make a 2% lotion, use 2grams of the Alpha Arbutin Powder in a 100gram base lotion.
To make a 5% lotion, use 5grams of the Alpha Arbutin Powder in a 100gram base lotion.
