Overview of Kojic Acid
Kojic Acid is a common ingredient in cosmetics and skin care products because it is very good at lightening skin and reducing pigmentation. It comes from natural fermentation processes and is most useful because it stops the skin from making melanin. Kojic Acid is commonly used in creams, serums, lotions, soaps, and professional skin-care formulations targeting dark spots, hyperpigmentation, melasma, and uneven skin tone.
In modern personal care formulations, Kojic Acid is preferred for its effectiveness in promoting a clearer, brighter, and more even complexion when used at recommended concentrations.
