Application
Kojic acid is primarily used in three main fields: cosmetics, healthcare, and food preservation.
Cosmetics Industry
In cosmetics, kojic acid is mainly used for whitening and anti-aging purposes. By inhibiting the activity of tyrosinase, it reduces melanin production, helping to fade dark spots and improve uneven skin tone. Thanks to its significant whitening effects and lack of side effects, it is widely used in freckle-removing cosmetics, such as whitening serums, creams, face masks, and facial cleansers.
Healthcare Field
Inhibition of Melanin Production: By suppressing tyrosinase activity, kojic acid reduces melanin formation, aiding in the fading of pigmentation issues like melasma and freckles.
Reduction of Inflammatory Reactions: Kojic acid’s anti-inflammatory properties help alleviate skin redness and irritation, assisting in the relief of inflammation caused by acne or contact dermatitis.
Antioxidant Effects: It scavenges free radicals, reducing oxidative stress-induced damage to the skin and delaying skin aging.
Promotion of Skin Repair: Kojic acid accelerates epidermal cell renewal, helping to repair skin damage caused by UV radiation or chemical irritation.
Food Preservation Industry
Kojic acid is also used in food preservation as a preservative and color fixative. It extends the shelf life of food while maintaining its color and flavor.
