Kojic Acid is a potent skin lightener, that has been used for decades by individuals all across Asia and South East Asia. It lightens the skin by inadvertently inhibiting tyrosinase activity – the enzyme responsible for producing melanin. In addition to its skin lightening benefits, it also has anti-microbial properties. It is the preferred natural, and highly effective alternative to hydroquinone.

Compatibility
Kojic Acid Powder is compatible with SepiWhite, GigaWhite, Alpha Arbutin, and Kojic Acid Dipalmitate. Although Kojic Acid isn’t a BHA or an AHA, you may wish to avoid mixing it directly with Vitamin C to avoid possible irritation. (Vitamin C & AHA’s should not be mixed together).
Note: Avoid mixing too many powders into one lotion, aim for no more than 3 active skin lightening ingredients in one formulation.
You should aim to use no more than 2-5% of any of our skin lightening additives in a single formulation. Using more than necessary can be counterproductive. Calculating percentages in a lotion is very straightforward, and guidelines have been shown below.
To make a 2% lotion, use 2grams of the Kojic Acid Powder in a 100gram base lotion.
To make a 5% lotion, use 5grams of the Kojic Acid Powder in a 100gram base lotion.
