Bearberry Extract 50g

Bearberry extract is made from the leaves of the Bearberry shrub (whose berries are a favorite food for bears, hence the name).  It contains the active agent, Arbutin, which naturally lightens and brightens skin. There are 3 types of Bearberry shrubs but only the common bearberry, arctostaphylos uva-ursi, produces arbutin.
