Alpha Arbutin
Tyrosinase Inhibitor
Nature Meets Lab
Extracted organically from the lush leaves of the Bearberry plant, Arbutin is nature's most effective pigment fader. However, raw extracts are notoriously unstable. In the Luma Lab, we isolate the specific Alpha glycoside form, structurally engineering it to be highly stable and dramatically more effective than natural forms.
Biological Pathway
It physically binds to the tyrosinase enzyme in your melanocytes, halting the conversion of tyrosine into melanin. It shuts dark spot production down at the cellular source without the toxicity of hydroquinone.
