Kojic Acid for Hyperpigmentation

Get Ready to Transform Your Skin 

Sunspots are an unfortunate side-effect of aging, yet with the proper ingredients and methods you can effectively fight against hyperpigmentation. When it comes to skin darkening resulting in spotting, this is caused by too much or unevenly distributed melanin on the skin’s surface.

Dark spots on the skin can have multiple causes, from sun exposure and hormones to acne or injury. To address these discolourations, use products that reduce melanin production while providing exfoliation for a brighter complexion. Kojic acid is an excellent choice for tackling hyperpigmentation due to its mild action yet powerful brightening effects.

What It is & How It Works? 

Kojic acid is a perfect choice for those seeking to lighten their skin, as it safely and effectively penetrates the epidermis layer of the skin. It does this by blocking tyrosinase, an enzyme that catalyzes melanin production – making it ideal in treating hyperpigmentation such as melasma & acne scars.

Where Does it Comes From?

Kojic Acid is a byproduct of the fermentation process in various fungi, grains like soy and rice, to name a few. As such, this powerful ingredient can be found in many skin-nourishing creams and serums.

What Products Have Kojic Acid? 

Add a bit of brightness to your skincare routine with Kojic Acid. This powerful ingredient can be found in Brightening Serums, Cleansers, Masks, Face Bars and Moisturizers. Whether you’re looking to combat hyperpigmentation or just add a touch of luminosity to your complexion, Kojic Acid is here for you.

For best results, apply Brightening Serum up to five times per week. Begin by dabbing a dime sized amount onto slightly moist skin, massaging it gently into the face and neck area. Afterward, give the serum 90 seconds to absorb before you moisturize your skin for optimal hydration.

Make the Enzyme Exfoliant Mask part of your skincare regimen up to three times a week and enjoy its Kaolin Clay & Witch Hazel benefits. This mask is excellent for unclogging pores, reducing breakouts, and leaving you with healthier-looking skin.

For added luminosity, SkinCeuticals Brightening Skin System with its kojic acid can perfectly augment your everyday and weekly skin care rituals. This system is recommended for monthly use in order to obtain optimal results.

Make sure to apply sunscreen with an SPF of 30 or more each and every day, especially when treating hyperpigmentation.
