INCI Name-Kojic Acid
 
Kojic Acid is a naturally derived skin-brightening ingredient produced through the fermentation of certain fungi, particularly Aspergillus and Penicillium species. It works by inhibiting the enzyme tyrosinase, which is essential for melanin production. Kojic Acid is widely used in skincare products to reduce hyperpigmentation, dark spots, melasma, acne marks, and uneven skin tone while promoting a brighter, more radiant complexion.
