Things to Check / Consider
As with any brightening/active formula: sun protection is essential. The description warns “Ensure to use SPF daily when using this period.”
It also cautions: “Might cause skin irritation or sun sensitivity. … Not suggested for pregnant women.”

While 2% is moderate, every skin reacts differently; some users of Alpha Arbutin have reported minimal effect or irritation. For example:
“I used The Ordinary’s Alpha-Arbutin. … it didn’t do as much for my skin as niacinamide.”
Reddit
So set realistic expectations.
Because it’s a pigment-targeting serum, consistency & patience matter; results may take weeks.
Check authenticity, batch number, manufacture/expiry dates since skincare in many markets can suffer counterfeit or degraded stock.
If you use other strong actives (like retinoids, exfoliants, acids), layer carefully — brightening + strong actives can increase sensitivity.
How to Use
Typical usage (based on product description):
Cleanse your face.
Apply a few drops of the serum onto clean, dry skin (face & neck).
Gently massage until absorbed.
Follow with your moisturizer and morning and/or night routines.
In morning use, make sure to apply broad-spectrum SPF afterwards (especially given sun sensitivity risk).
If new to actives, start evening use first, once every other night, then increase frequency if skin tolerates it.
