Pure Kojic Skin Lightening Acid Powder 

Product Description

Kojic acid is an all-natural compound derived from fungi – sort of like mushrooms. That means that kojic acid is completely natural. The science behind how kojic acid works as a lightening agent involves its effect on melanin production. Melanin is a naturally occurring pigment in the body that gives the eyes, hair, and skin their color. It has been widely studied by many dermatologists and scientists because it is an ingredient that’s commonly used in skin lightening products. Kojic acid works by blocking tyrosine from forming, which then prevents melanin production. Tyrosine is an amino acid  needed to support the production of melanin. Decreased melanin production may have a lightening effect on the skin.
