Description - Kojic Acid Dipalmitate is a highly stable ester of kojic acid, renowned for its superior efficacy in skin lightening and pigmentation correction. Unlike pure kojic acid, this advanced derivative resists oxidation and discoloration over time, ensuring long-term stability and performance. It functions by inhibiting the enzyme tyrosinase—responsible for melanin production—achieving up to 80% effectiveness in skin brightening. Kojic Dipalmitate is oil-soluble, compatible with a wide range of preservatives and sunscreens, and ideal for creating high-performance, cosmetically elegant skincare formulations.
