Arbutin Powder In Shower Gel
The main purpose of adding Beta arbutin powder to body wash is to take advantage of its whitening and brightening effects, so that the daily bath process can also become part of the whitening care. Here are a few potential benefits of Beta arbutin powder in body wash:
1. Mild whitening
Although the whitening efficiency of Beta arbutin is slightly lower than that of Alpha arbutin, it can still effectively inhibit the production of melanin in the skin, help to improve the uneven skin tone, and gradually lighten the skin tone.
