Kojic Acid Palmitate is a stable, oil-soluble derivative of kojic acid, engineered specifically for premium cosmetic whitening products. This Cosmetic Grade active provides superior stability against light, heat, and metallic ions compared to pure kojic acid.

The compound acts as a powerful tyrosinase inhibitor, effectively reducing melanin production to brighten skin and even out tone. It features excellent skin penetration and compatibility with a wide range of cosmetic oils and waxes.

Its antioxidant properties prevent the oxidation of lipids, ensuring the long-term efficacy and color stability of finished creams. It remains effective across a wide pH range, making it versatile for diverse skincare formulations.
