Phloretin is used for treatment such as skin lightening, anti-ageing, dark spot removal, brightening, and anti-acne formulations. In creams, serums, lotions, gels, hand creams, etc

It is a potent antioxidant and skin lightener comparable to ionic acid and arbutin. A clinical study found that the inhibition rate of 0.3% Phloretin on tyrosinase is as high as 98.2%, superior to the common lighteners agents (kojic acid and arbutin). Phloretin, when used as a co-lightening agent also greatly improves their inhibition rate of tyrosine inhibitors. It neutralizes damaging free radicals, helps improve cell turnover, and improves the appearance of discolouration, and promotes a brighter and even skin tone., with increased environmental protection.

In Skin lightening preparations, use with other lighteners for improved performance.
