Abstract: The present invention relates to a composition for improving skin whitening or thermal aging comprising 8-methoxybutin or an acceptable salt thereof as an active ingredient. The composition has no cytotoxicity, increases the expression of heat shock protein 70 (HSP70)—to prevent thermal aging, and inhibits the melanogenesis by decreasing level of tyrosinase gene expression involved in skin pigmentation. Therefore, the composition including 8-methoxybutin or an acceptable salt thereof as an active ingredient can be effectively used as a cosmetic composition, dermatologic agent, health functional food, and the like for improving skin whitening or thermal aging.
