Natural beauty alpha arbutin
Arbutin, also known as beauty of joseon alpha arbutin, is a component extracted from the leaves of the azaleaceae plant vitamin c alpha arbutin. It can inhibit the activity of tyrosinase in the body, prevent the production of melanin, thus reducing skin pigmentation, removing color spots and freckles, and has bactericidal and anti-inflammatory effects. It is used in cosmetics.
At present, there are only a few manufacturers of α-arbutin and β-arbutin on the market for 2 alpha arbutin serum, which can inhibit the production and deposition of melanin and remove stains and freckles.
[Birth of α-arbutin and β-arbutin] The sources of α-arbutin and β-arbutin are completely different. β-arbutin can be extracted by plant cell culture and artificial synthesis, enzyme conversion and plant extraction, alpha ordinary can generally only be carried out by different microbial enzymes sugar transfer reaction, so that one molecule of glucose and one molecule of hydroquinone combined to form a single α-arbutin. The stability, efficacy and safety were better than β-arbutin. Like our dark spots and black pimple marks, alpha-arbutin can easily fade away. alpha arbutin vitamin c can quickly penetrate deep into the skin and inhibit the activity of tyrosinase in the pigment mother cells deep in the stratum corneum
The stability of α-arbutin and β-arbutin were compared under different basic environmental conditions. The results showed that the content of best alpha arbutin products remained stable when the temperature reached 100℃. At pH=1 and pH=13, the chemical properties of α-arbutin were unstable, but at neutral conditions, ordinary ascorbic acid alpha arbutin was stable. Both light and ultraviolet radiation can affect the stability of alpha arbutin ascorbic acid. By comparing the stability of the two kinds of tranexamic acid and alpha arbutin, the stability detection results of the two kinds of arbutin for ordinary serum alpha arbutin were the same under the same pH and light influence. Under the influence of temperature, β-arbutin solution showed instability after reaching 60℃. Therefore, in terms of both, α-arbutin is far superior to β-arbutin in terms of stability.
According to the provisions of the “Cosmetic Hygiene Code”, α-arbutin is only allowed to be used in hair color and artificial nail products, and is a restricted substance in cosmetics and skin care products as ordinary alpha arbutin serum. Generally, cosmetics should achieve a better whitening effect, and the appropriate dosage of arbutin should be 3%. When the dosage is lower than this value, arbutin has no obvious effect on inhibiting the catalytic activity of tyrosinase in the skin; when the dosage is greater than 3%, hydroquinone will cause skin damage. In addition, hydroquinone is the initial raw material for the synthesis of arbutin. Unreacted hydroquinone remains after the reaction is over.
Arbutin, also known as alpha arbutin ha , is a component extracted from the leaves of the azaleaceae plant arbutin. It can inhibit the activity of tyrosinase in the body, prevent the production of melanin, thus reducing skin pigmentation, removing color spots and freckles, and has bactericidal and anti-inflammatory effects. It is used in cosmetics. At present, there are only a few manufacturers of alpha arbutin and tranexamic acid and β-arbutin on the market, which can inhibit the production and deposition of melanin and remove stains and freckles.
Alpha arbutin vs. beta arbutin
1. The price of alpha arbutin is about 8 times that of β-arbutin.
2. The whitening effect of alpha arbutin is more than 15 times that of β-arbutin.
3. Alpha arbutin the ordinary alpha arbutin 60ml has stronger inhibitory effect on tyrosinase activity.
4. The stability of α-arbutin is better, α-arbutin will not decompose at 100° high temperature; Beta arbutin has a small breakdown over 60°.
5.Tranexamic acid Alpha arbutin has no photosensitivity and can be used during the day.
6. Alpha arbutin does not occur in nature and can only be produced by fermentation.
7. The application time of β-arbutin in the market is longer, so the generally said arbutin is β-arbutin, rather than ordinary alpha arbutin.
