How to Use Mulberry Extract for Brightening

Mulberry extract works best in serums applied to clean skin twice daily, followed by moisturizer and mandatory SPF during the day.

1. Choose the right concentration. Look for products with 2-5% mulberry extract for daily use. Higher concentrations exist but start low to test your skin's tolerance.
2. Apply to clean, dry skin. Use mulberry extract serums after cleansing but before moisturizer. Pat gently into skin rather than rubbing to avoid irritation.
3. Layer properly. Follow with a hydrating moisturizer to prevent dryness. Mulberry extract can be layered with other brightening ingredients like vitamin C, but introduce slowly.
4. Protect with SPF. Always use broad-spectrum SPF 30+ during the day when using any brightening ingredient. Mulberry extract makes skin more sensitive to UV damage.
