Alpha arbutin for dark spots in Pakistan
Alpha arbutin is a brightening active used to help fade the look of dark spots and uneven tone, and it is gentler than hydroquinone. Elluvi uses 2% alpha arbutin in two night formulas, Hydra Glow Cream and Age Defying Serum, both with 0.3% retinol and niacinamide. Results take 8 to 12 weeks, with sunscreen every morning.

How to choose
Why it sits next to retinol and niacinamide
Alpha arbutin works on how pigment shows, retinol speeds up skin renewal and niacinamide supports tone. Together they cover more of the pigmentation story than one active alone, which is why Elluvi pairs them in a single night product.
Timeline
Glow and texture: 2 to 4 weeks. Recent post-pimple marks: 4 to 6 weeks. Older dark spots and patchy tone: 8 to 12 weeks. Marks return with sun exposure, so broad-spectrum sunscreen every morning is not optional.
Which one to choose
The night cream is the easier start and includes kojic acid. The serum adds peptides and suits people already on retinol. Use one, not both on the same night.
Common questions
Does alpha arbutin work for dark spots?
It helps the look of dark spots and uneven tone with steady use, usually over 8 to 12 weeks, and works best with sunscreen and a retinol or niacinamide at night.
Is alpha arbutin better than hydroquinone?
Alpha arbutin is gentler and can be used without a prescription, but it works more slowly. Hydroquinone is stronger and is a doctor's decision.
Which Elluvi products contain alpha arbutin?
Hydra Glow Cream (0.3% retinol, 5% niacinamide, 2% alpha arbutin and kojic acid) and Age Defying Serum (0.3% retinol, 5% niacinamide, 2% alpha arbutin and peptides).
Can I use alpha arbutin with vitamin C?
Yes. Vitamin C in the morning and an alpha arbutin and retinol product at night is a common split.
