Description

✅ What it is

• Name: Precious Skin Alpha Arbutin Collagen Body Serum SPF50 (also appears as “Alpha Arbutin UV Protection Collagen Body Serum SPF50+” etc.).
• Origin: Thailand.
• Size: Frequently listed as 500 g jar / body-size container.
• Format: Gel-serum for the body (i.e., applied to arms, legs, torso, etc) rather than face only.

🔍 Key benefits & claims

According to product descriptions and reviews:

• Brightens and evens skin tone via the active ingredient alpha arbutin (which inhibits melanin production).
• Supports skin elasticity and smoothness via added collagen.
• Provides sun / UV protection with SPF 50 (protects from UVA/UVB) as part of daily body care.
• Hydrates, absorbs quickly, non-sticky texture. For example: “gel texture … easy to absorb” and “no greasy residue”.
• Aimed at body skin (not just face), making it more practical for large surface area.

🧪 Key Ingredients

Among the noted ingredients:

• Alpha Arbutin – a brightening agent targeting dark spots/pigmentation.
• Hydrolyzed Collagen / Collagen peptides – for firmness/elasticity.
• Niacinamide (Vitamin B3) – helps even tone, reduce dullness.
• Vitamin C & E – antioxidant, skin nourishment.
• Mineral water / hydrating base – for moisture support.
• Other UV filters: e.g., Titanium Dioxide, Ethylhexyl Methoxycinnamate, Octocrylene.

📋 How to use

Usage instructions from product sources:

• After showering or cleansing the body, apply the serum generously and spread evenly over the body skin.
• Use both morning and evening if desired (especially if you want optimum brightening).
• Because the product includes SPF 50, it’s positioned both as body care + sun protection. However, some descriptions recommend still using a full sunscreen if sun exposure is strong.
• Application tip: Use on slightly damp skin after showering to improve absorption. (From one description)

⚠️ Important considerations & caveats

• While the product claims brightening / “whitening” effects, actual user results vary. For example, one review noted: “Effeknya B aja, enggak sesuai review lebay whitening secara instan.”
• Having SPF in a body serum is useful, but ensure you apply enough (body care products often aren’t applied at the thick layer sunscreen guidelines recommend). If you’ll be exposed to intense sun, add a dedicated broad-spectrum sunscreen.
• As with any product containing active ingredients (brighteners, UV filters, etc), patch test first especially if you have sensitive skin.
• Brightening treatments take consistent use over time — don’t expect overnight dramatic change. One description promises “visible results in 7 days” but these are marketing claims.

🖼 Visuals & Packaging

• Jar style container, typically deep size (500 g) — large volume for body use.
• Gel texture, often tinted light pink or transparent gel. Users say “gel ringan banget … warna pink” when describing it.
• Labeling: shows “Alpha Arbutin Collagen Body Serum SPF50” plus brand info, origin Thailand.
• Some users mention that jar packaging could be improved (e.g., pump would be more convenient).

🎯 My summary/take-away

If you’re looking for a body-care product that combines brightening + collagen-support + sun protection, this product is a strong contender in that niche. It’s especially suited for body skin (arms/legs/torso) with large coverage. The gel texture and SPF50 are useful features for daily use.

However:

• If your goal is high-level sun protection (e.g., beach, intense sun) you may still need a dedicated broad-spectrum sunscreen in addition.
• If your goal is dramatic whitening / brightening of body skin (i.e., large pigmentation issues), manage expectations: it may help but may not give instantaneous 2-3 tone changes. Consistent use required.
