Skin Actives Scientific's DIY Kojic Acid Dipalmitate is a high-quality, pure powder compound designed to help reduce the appearance of dark spots and uneven skin tone. The product contains a precise combination of kojic acid and palmitic acid, which work together to gently exfoliate and brighten the skin.
To use, simply add one tube of the Kojic Acid Dipalmitate to 4 oz of your favorite serum or cream, or shop for one of our high-quality moisturizing base creams. This amount is enough to last up to four months, and it is safe for all skin types. You can apply the resulting cream to your face and affected dark spots once or twice daily for best results.
While the Kojic Acid Dipalmitate specifically addresses dark spots caused by sun damage, freckles, and aging, Skin Actives Scientific also offers a Skin Brightening Cream and Skin Brightening Serum both with Kojic Acid that are designed to address all causes of dark spots.
How to use it
Beginner: Add up to 1 tube to 4 oz of your favorite base cream.
Advanced: This ingredient is recommended for use at up to 5% in formulations. Do not use at a stronger concentration. For best results, dissolve the powder in a white oil (such as cosmetic grade mineral oil or paraffin liquid) before adding to a cream or oil-based formulation. We recommend using this ingredient in formulations with a pH range of 4-7.
Quick Tips
Kojic Acid Dipalmitate is the more stable version of kojic acid and will not discolor products as koijc acid does. However, it can still recrystallize over time. Protect from light and store in a cool, dry location.
