Can kojic acid dipalmitate powder whiten the skin?
Kojic acid dipalmitate is a highly effective whitening ingredient and a fat-soluble derivative of kojic acid. It is obtained by esterifying kojic acid with palmitoyl. This derivative improves the stability of kojic acid, reduces its instability to light and heat, and the problem of discoloration when encountering metal ions. It effectively inhibits the activity of tyrosinase and blocks or delays the formation of melanin.
It has a high stability that vitamin C does not have, no side effects, and has an antioxidant effect. It can quickly penetrate the skin and be absorbed by the skin, softening the stratum corneum. It is not only concluded by the medical community, but also recognized by the Ministry of Health. It is often used by the medical community to lighten facial spots.

What are the effects of kojic acid dipalmitate on skin care?
Whitening and lightening spots: Kojic acid dipalmitate can effectively inhibit the activity of tyrosinase, block or delay the formation of melanin, thereby helping to lighten facial spots and achieve the effect of whitening skin.
High stability and safety: Compared with traditional whitening ingredients, kojic acid dipalmitate has higher stability and safety. It overcomes the shortcomings of kojic acid's instability to light and heat and discoloration when encountering metal ions, so that it can still maintain its effect under high temperature or direct sunlight.
Antioxidant effect: This ingredient also has antioxidant function, can quickly penetrate into the skin and be absorbed by the skin, soften the stratum corneum, promote skin metabolism, and quickly eliminate the melanin that has been formed.
Inhibit melanin: It has a strong inhibitory effect on the production of melanin in human skin. When it works, it combines with copper ions to prevent the activation of copper ions and tyrosinase. It can also inhibit the production of melanin pigments and freckles, promote skin metabolism, quickly eliminate the melanin pigment that has been formed, and see the effect of whitening in a short time.
Advantages of Kojic Acid Dipalmitate
Safety: No side effects, suitable for long-term use.
High stability: It overcomes the instability of kojic acid to light and heat and the discoloration when encountering metal ions, and has higher stability.
High absorption: It can quickly penetrate into the skin, be absorbed by the skin, and soften the stratum corneum. It is recognized not only by the medical community, but also by the Ministry of Health.
Good compounding performance: It will not affect the efficacy of other additives in the cosmetic system and has good compounding performance.
How to use it in cosmetics?
Whitening products:
It can be added to whitening creams, lotions and other products. The recommended amount is 1~3% of the total amount. It can effectively inhibit the activity of tyrosinase and block the formation of melanin, thereby achieving a whitening effect.
