Kojic acid is an ingredient that is derived originally from more than one type of fungi. Commercially it now comes from various sources and is a popular ingredient in skin care.

Kojic Acid is used to brighten and lighten the skin by stopping the production of melanin (the pigment that colours the skin, hair, and eyes).

The body produces melanin with the assistance of tyrosine, an amino acid. Kojic Acid stops the function of tyrosine, which in turn stops melanin production.

Kojic Acid is currently one of the most popular skincare ingredients. You can find it on the list of ingredients in most skincare products such as body ,face soaps and washes, lotions, creams, scrubs, and serums. 

Here are some use examples:

* Add 2-3% of powder to the final weight of the finished product of cream, lotion, soap etc. If you mix straight into the cream it is normal for the mixture to be a little gritty but with practice it can be improved or eradicated by mixing your own emulsion.

 * You can apply Kojic Acid directly to your affected area to help the hyperpigmentation as a spot treatment or you can apply it all over your face avoiding eyes, lips and mouth.

 *You can mix Kojic Acid powder with water or a lotion to make a cream like mixture which then can be applied to the affected areas.

Our Kojic acid powder is of the highest quality , however please note that the effectiveness of your finished product will depend according to your effort and ability. We advise that if you have not used this type of chemical before that you do some research before making a purchase.
