The present invention relates to a method for producing cannabigerol and purifying it from a reaction mixture. The present invention also relates to the cosmetic use of cannabigerol for the inhibition of tyrosinase activity and/or the reduction of melanin production in the skin, in particular for reducing pigmentation of the skin, preferably for the improvement of the appearance of the skin in case of hyperpigmentation, lentigo or vitiligo. Furthermore, the present invention relates to cannabigerol for use in a therapeutic method for the inhibition of tyrosinase activity and/or the reduction of melanin production in the skin, preferably for use in a therapeutic method for the treatment and/or prevention of malign skin disorders, in particular skin cancer.
