Kojic Acid Dipalmitate
Kojic Acid dipalmitate is a modified kojic acid derivative – an ester of Kojic Acid offering superior stability, which not only overcomes the instability to light, heat, and metallic ion but also keeps the activity of the inhibitory tyrosine and prevents the formation of melanin, age-spots, and hyperpigmentation.
Kojic Acid Dipalmitate is derived from kojic acid. It is oil-soluble and compatible with all kinds of preservatives and sunscreen. It is a new skin whitening agent and can prevent the formation of melanin by inhibiting the activity of tyrosinase. It is rapidly absorbed into the skin, softens cuticles, and produces excellent effects in skin whitening and anti-suntan applications.
Kojic Acid dipalmitate is a modified kojic acid derivative—an ester of Kojic Acid offering superior stability, which not only overcomes the instability of light, heat, and metallic ions but also keeps the activity of the inhibitory tyrosine and prevents the formation of melanin, age spots, and hyperpigmentation. It is said to be more effective than kojic acid, although some research has not proved that. Nevertheless, after kojic acid has ceased to be effective, kojic dipalmitate will still be working without discoloring your formulations. Kojic Acid Dipalmitate can produce excellent effects in even toning the skin, fighting age spots, pregnancy marks, and freckles, as well as general skin pigmentation disorders of the face and body.
