The tree, commonly known as a madrone, is also referred to as the strawberry tree because of the berry’s resemblance to strawberries (though they are not related plants). Although not commonly used in cosmetics, arbutus berry is a rich source of a variety of polyphenols that have high antioxidant capacity, making it a good choice for fighting pro-aging free-radical damage. Studies also demonstrate that Arbutus unedo fruit extract is a tyrosinase inhibitor, meaning it impacts the effect of tyrosinase, an enzyme that plays a role in skin discolorations.
