Description

Enhance your skincare formulations with Bearberry Extract Powder, a botanical powerhouse known for its natural skin-brightening properties. Sourced from the Arctostaphylos uva-ursi plant, this potent ingredient is rich in arbutin, a natural compound that helps reduce the appearance of dark spots, hyperpigmentation, and uneven skin tone.

This edible red berry (which is a favorite food of bears – hence the name) has long been used in herbal medicine.

Bearberry extract works well for lightening and brightening overall skin tone as well as correcting hyperpigmentation problems like age spots, freckles, melasma, and acne scars. Bearberry extract for skin lighting contains allantoin, which has soothing, skin-repairing properties.

Arbutin is one of the many natural ingredient used in skin brightening creams. The mechanism of action of arbutin is through the competitive inhibition of the enzyme tyrosinase, a key enzyme in the synthesis of melanin, although it has been suggested that it may also affect other steps in the synthesis and accumulation of melanin.

Bearberry extract can infiltrate into the skin quickly without affecting the concentration of cell multiplication and effectively prevent activity of tyrosinase in the skin in forming  melanin. By the combined action of  arbutin with tyrosinase, decomposition and drainage of melanin are accelerated.  Bearberry extract’s  arbutin is one of the safest and most efficient skin lightening material.
