Whitening agents have the most crucial role to play in any cosmetic product and remain of brightening the skin tone. Thus, skin whitening products mainly provide commercial availability for cosmetics in order to get a lighter skin appearance. They may also have utilisation for clinical treatment of pigmentary disorders such as melasma or post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation.
In such commercial products, whitening agents acts at various levels of melanin production in the skin. Also, many of them display as competitive inhibitors of tyrosinase, the key enzyme in melanogenesis.
In short, the different whitening agents present mainly include hydroquinone, kojic acid, arbutin, ascorbic acid, and azelaic acid. Most of these agents provide benefit in treating abnormal hyperpigmentation of the skin.
Among these agents, hydroquinone has become one of the most popular whitening agent. This is because it acts as a depigment agent through inhibitory tyrosinase enzyme. This also helps in reducing the conversion of DOPA (dopamine) to melanin.
Another agent, kojic acid, is an antibiotic produced by many species in an aerobic process from a wide range of carbon sources. It also inhibits tyrosinase enzyme by enhancing the whitening effect of whitening combination cream (CC).
Significantly, arbutin is a natural form of hydroquinone extracted from a bearberry plant. It also contains in leaves of pear trees and certain herbs. Thus, this whitening agent inhibits melanin production in cells and decreases melanosomal tyrosinase activity.
Further, ascorbic acid can reduce oxidised melanin from jet black to a light tan color. We may also know this acid as vitamin C degraded by oxidation, especially in aqueous media.
Most of these whitening agents appear in various cosmetic products to offer the function of providing whitening to skin.
