Description
Kojic Dipalmitate is a stable esterified form of kojic acid, a naturally occurring compound derived from fungi. Unlike kojic acid, kojic dipalmitate offers better stability and less irritation, making it ideal for use in cosmetic formulations. It is primarily used for its skin brightening and lightening properties, helping to reduce the appearance of hyperpigmentation, dark spots, and uneven skin tone.
