Description
Seeing spots? It often starts with just a couple of unassuming brown patches—a result of UV rays and age. Hyperpigmentation occurs from an increase of melanin production in the skin, typically from sun exposure, age spots and hormonal changes. BIOLOCELL Alpha Arbutin Whitening Cream helps brighten and tone your overall complexion and get rid of unwanted pigmentation.
KEY BENEFITS
• Reduces and prevents hyper-pigmentation
• Fades unsightly discoloration while brightening skin tone • Blocks and inhibits tyrosinase activity
• Perfect for all skin types
KEY INGEDIENT
• Alpha-Arbutin – From the North American Forests, Alpha- Arbutin, and extract of the Bearberry Plant, is a natural skin whitening agent. Alpha-Arbutin acts quickly in lightening
the skin and reduces the tanning that occurs after the exposure to ultraviolet rays. Alpha-Arbutin works by inhibiting the body’s production of tyrosinase, an enzyme that produces the melanin that causes suntan.
SCIENCE
There are two forms of Arbutin – the ALPHA and the BETA one. Both are tyrosinase inhibitors. Structurally ALPHA-ARBUTIN
(4hydroxphenyl- a-D-glucopyranoside) is an a-glucoside and BETA-ARBUTIN a B-glucoside. The a-glucosidic bond offers higher stability and efficacy than the B form in the related BETA-ARBUTIN. This leads to a skin lightening active that acts faster and more efficiently than existing single components, minimizes liver spots and reduces the degree of skin tanning after UV exposure.
DIRECTIONS
Apply to clean skin morning and night or as directed.
