Kojic Acid
Brightening & Complexion Balancing Treatment
Description:
Kojic Acid is a naturally derived brightening agent created through the fermentation of rice, soy, or certain fungi. It’s known for its powerful ability to fade dark spots, correct uneven skin tone, and restore natural radiance. Kojic Acid works by inhibiting tyrosinase, the enzyme responsible for melanin (pigment) production in the skin. By slowing this process, it helps reduce the appearance of:
•Hyperpigmentation and discoloration
•Sun spots, age spots, and acne scars
•Melasma and dull, uneven complexion
•Post-inflammatory marks from rashes or blemishes
This active ingredient also offers antioxidant and antimicrobial properties, helping to protect your skin from environmental stress while promoting a smoother, brighter, more youthful glow. ✨ What It Does for the Skin
•Brightens and Evens Tone: Reduces pigmentation for a clearer, more balanced complexion.
•Targets Dark Spots & Blemishes: Fades visible discoloration caused by sun damage, scarring, or acne.
•Smooths and Softens: Improves texture by encouraging skin renewal and hydration.
•Prevents New Pigment Formation: Regular use helps slow new dark spot development.
•Protects & Revitalizes: Contains antioxidant qualities that guard against free-radical damage.
💧 How to Use Kojic Acid Products
Step 1: Cleanse
Wash your face or body with a gentle cleanser and pat dry. Avoid using exfoliating or harsh soaps before applying Kojic Acid.
Step 2: Apply
Place a few drops (if oil or serum) or a small amount (if cream or soap) onto the fingertips.
Gently massage into areas of uneven tone, dark marks, or across the entire face and neck for overall brightness.
Step 3: Moisturize
Follow up with a lightweight moisturizer or oil (such as your Lanubian Experience Glow Nectar or Healthy Skin Butter) to lock in hydration.
Step 4: Protect
Because Kojic Acid makes the skin more sensitive to sunlight, always apply a broad-spectrum sunscreen (SPF 30+) during the day, even indoors, to prevent re-darkening or irritation.
Frequency:
•Start with once daily at night for the first week.
•Gradually increase to twice daily (morning and night) if your skin tolerates it well.
•For sensitive skin, maintain every-other-day usage to prevent dryness or irritation.
Patch Test:
Apply to a small area of skin for 24 hours before full use to ensure no allergic reaction occurs
