Description
Kojic acid dipalmitate is an improved kojic acid derivative, which overcomes the instability of kojic acid to light, heat and metal ions, and maintains the tyrosinase inhibitory activity of kojic acid and blocks the formation of skin melanin. And this inhibition is stronger than kojic acid, making it a new generation of high-efficiency whitening actives.
