Vitamin C (Ascorbic Acid) is an effective antioxidant that brightens the skin tone and reduces signs of aging. In its pure form, Vitamin C is unstable in water which is why The Ordinary provides it in a water-free formulation. Alpha Arbutin reduces the look of dark spots and uneven skin tone. This formula offers a combination of 8% Ascorbic Acid and 2% Alpha-Arbutin that work together to visibly brighten the look of skin while also targeting the appearance of dark spots and multiple signs of skin aging.
The Ordinary Alpha Arbutin 2% + HA is a concentrated Serum with Purified Alpha Arbutin and Hyaluronic Acid. Alpha Arbutin reduces the looks of spots and hyper-pigmentation. It's used at a high 2% concentration versus a standard concentration of 1% and supported with a next-generation form of Hyaluronic Acid for enhanced delivery. Alpha Arbutin is much stronger in effect than Arbutin or Beta Arbutin. Alcohol-free, nut-free, vegan, gluten-free.
