mulberry
Mulberry extract (also called paoer mulberry) is very effective tyrosinase inhibitor. This tyrosinase inhibiting quality of mulberry root is not only one of the most potent, but most gentle. It is known to be soothing and not cause any irritation, even in high concentrations.
The skin lightening effect from mulberry extract was proven in a study which did a comparison of topical mulberry with a 10% kojic acid concentration and a 5.5% hydroquinone product. The skin that was treated with mulberry showed a 50% decrease in tyrosinase compared to the kojic acid and hydroquinone, and the concentration of the mulberry extract was 0.396%.
Scientists and dermatologists believe it’s the anti-irritant qualities in combination with strong, powerful melanogensis inhibiting qualities which make mulberry ideal for skin lightening. Mulbery extract also has a free radical scavenging ability.
