Arbutin: The Science of Skin Brightening
2026-03-06
How It Works
Arbutin inhibits tyrosinase, the enzyme responsible for melanin production. By slowing excess melanin formation, it helps:
- Fade dark spots and sun damage
- Even out skin tone
- Prevent new pigmentation
Unlike hydroquinone, Arbutin is gentle on skin and does not harm melanocytes.
