Deoxyarbutin, as a new generation of skin brightening and whitening active agent, is mainly used in advanced whitening cosmetics.
Deoxyarbutin, as a competitive tyrosinase inhibitor, can regulate the generation of melanin, overcome pigmentation, fade black spots on the skin, and has a rapid and long-lasting skin whitening effect. Deoxyarbutin has a significantly better inhibitory effect on tyrosinase than other whitening agents, and a small amount can present a whitening and brightening effect. Deoxyarbutin also has strong antioxidant effects.
The whitening effect is 10 times that of hydroquinone, 350 times that of β- Arbutin, 150 times that of kojic acid, and 38.5 times that of the current popular α- Arbutin
