The History of Skin Lightening

The things women did a long time ago to lighten their skin was considered quite extreme and downright dangerous in some ways. The history of skin lightening has a tumultuous past.

During the Nara Period (710–94), women painted their face with a white powder called oshiroi, and in the Heian Period (794–1185), a white facial color continued to stand as a symbol of beauty.

References to the beauty of light skin tone are found in the Diary of Lady Murasaki and Tale of Genji.

More than a thousand years ago, cosmetics for whitening the skin had already become a status symbol among the aristocracy.

Skin bleaching continued in the Victorian era with the age of powder and paint, the precursor to us wearing foundation. European women were literally painting their faces with lead paint. Queen Elizabeth I was known to take arsenic complexion wafers, which were essentially little bits of poison to give her that ghostly look.

9 Natural Skin Lightening Cream Ingredients You'll Want to Try

The following ingredients are proven to help naturally lighten skin that has acquired some sun spot, pigmentation issues, and overall discoloration from aging and damage: You'll find these ingredients in our natural skin lightening cream:

Licorice. Licorice root contains two ingredients that help with pigmentation: glabridin and liquiritin. Glabridin helps to retrain tyrosinase, an enzyme that produces melanin which leads to pigmentation. Liquiritin helps to break up and remove melanin and pigmentation in the skin. In addition to helping with dark spots, licorice can be soothing and help even out your skin tone. Licorice is Native to Eurasia, it has a long history of use from China to Ancient Egypt to Central Europe.

Kojic Acid. Kojic acid is derived from mushroom-like fungi during fermentation, and is the second most common natural lightening agent. It prohibits the production of melanin and penetrates the upper layers of the skin causing a lightening effect. Kojic is an excellent natural option that is safe for everyone. 

Arbutin. Arbutin is a natural form of hydroquinone derived from the bearberry plant. It is a safer and effective alternative to hydroquinone and is less cytotoxic to the melanocytes. Look for arbutin in brightening face lotions and dark-spot correctors. Use it gradually in the first few weeks to make sure your skin doesn’t react negatively. You can then increase the frequency of use. Also, as always, make sure you are wearing sunscreen. Arbutin is typically derived from bearberry leaves, which is normally grown in Canada, USA, Europe and Asia.

Lemon Peel Bioferment. Lemon peel bioferment helps prevent the darkening of melanin in skin.  It also contains the ability to naturally lightening skin cells.

Niacinamide. Niacinamide, or vitamin B3, can be used to fade age spots and lighten discoloration of the skin. It’s effective with hyperpigmentation because it decreases the number of melanin transferred to pigment-producing cells (melanocytes) to skin cells by more than half. It doesn’t stop the production of melanin, but it reduces the amount that is transferred to the skin. It is extremely stable and not affected by heat or light like other chemical ingredients. Niacinamide is derived from nuts, seeds, and green vegetables worldwide.

Vitamin C. Vitamin C is another popular brightening alternative found in many brightening serums. Vitamin C is an amazing antioxidant that is beneficial for patients with hyperpigmentation. It works by brightening hyperpigmented spots on the skin, but not lightening normal skin.

Willow Bark Extract. Willow bark extract is a beta hydroxy acid that helps to exfoliate the skin and encourage cell turnover. That’s because it’s related to salicylic acid. White Willow Bark extract is composed of salicin, the natural form of salicylic acid. Salicylic acid helps to shed dead skin cells from your skin to allow new and healthy skin cells to regenerate. Willow bark is grown worldwide.

Alpha Lipoic Acid. Alpha lipoic acid is proven to help minimize melanin production and reduce discoloration on the skin.  With consistent use, it can help even skin tone and minimize hyperpigmentation.;

Centella Asiatica. Centella asiatica also has the ability to inhibit the production of melanin, which is important for the prevention of skin discoloration, and can also reduce sun spots and discoloration that already exist on the skin.
