Advanced Pigment Inhibitor with Kojic Acid
Erase Dark Spots, Reveal Radiant Skin
Tired of stubborn dark spots, hyperpigmentation, and uneven skin tone? Our Advanced Pigment Inhibitor with Kojic Acid is a potent, targeted treatment formulated with 1% Kojic Acid – the clinically-proven concentration that fades existing dark spots while preventing new ones from forming for a visibly brighter, more even complexion.
⭐ What is Kojic Acid?
Kojic Acid is a naturally-derived ingredient (from mushrooms and rice fermentation) that's clinically proven to inhibit melanin production – the pigment responsible for dark spots. It's one of the most effective, research-backed ingredients for treating hyperpigmentation, age spots, sun damage, and post-acne marks.
🎯 Why 1% Kojic Acid?
1% is the optimal concentration for targeted spot treatment – strong enough to deliver visible results, yet gentle enough for daily use. This precise formulation maximizes effectiveness while minimizing irritation, making it perfect for focused application on problem areas.
✨ Dual-Action Brightening Power
- Fades Existing Dark Spots – Lightens hyperpigmentation, age spots, sun damage, and post-acne marks
- Prevents New Spots – Inhibits melanin production to stop new discoloration before it appears
- Evens Skin Tone – Creates uniform, balanced complexion
- Restores Radiance – Reveals brighter, more luminous skin
- Targeted Treatment – Concentrated formula for precise application on problem areas
- Visible Results – Clinically-proven to reduce pigmentation over time
🎯 What It Treats
- Hyperpigmentation – Dark patches from sun exposure, hormones, or inflammation
- Age Spots (Liver Spots) – Brown spots from cumulative sun damage
- Sun Damage – UV-induced discoloration and uneven tone
- Post-Acne Marks (PIH) – Dark marks left behind after breakouts
- Melasma – Hormonal pigmentation (always consult dermatologist)
- Freckles – Can help lighten and reduce appearance
- Uneven Skin Tone – Overall discoloration and patchiness
🔬 How Kojic Acid Works
Step 1: Kojic Acid penetrates skin and reaches melanocytes (pigment-producing cells)
Step 2: It inhibits tyrosinase – the enzyme responsible for melanin production
Step 3: Less melanin = gradual fading of existing dark spots
Step 4: Continued use prevents new pigmentation from forming
It's not bleaching – it's intelligent pigment control at the cellular level.

- Stubborn dark spots that won't fade
- Post-acne hyperpigmentation (PIH)

- Uneven skin tone and discoloration
- Melasma or hormonal pigmentation
- Anyone seeking targeted brightening treatment

💧 How to Use (IMPORTANT)
Evening Application (Night-Only):
Step 1: Cleanse and dry skin thoroughly.
Step 2: Apply a small amount directly to dark spots only – not all over face.
Step 3: Use fingertip or cotton swab for precise, targeted application.
Step 4: Wait 2-3 minutes for absorption.
Step 5: Follow with moisturizer over entire face.
Step 6: ALWAYS use broad-spectrum SPF 30+ during the day – this is non-negotiable!
⚠️ CRITICAL SPF WARNING:
Kojic Acid increases sun sensitivity. Daily SPF is MANDATORY or dark spots will worsen. Reapply SPF every 2 hours when outdoors. Without SPF, this product will not work and may cause more pigmentation.
Pro Application Tips:
- Use at night only – Kojic Acid is photosensitive
- Spot treat, don't apply all over – This is a targeted treatment
- Start slowly – Use 3-4 times per week initially, then increase to nightly
- Be precise – Use cotton swab for exact application
- Layer under moisturizer – Never use alone without hydration
- SPF is non-negotiable – Minimum SPF 30, reapply throughout day
- Be patient – Pigment fading takes 8-12 weeks minimum
- Don't mix with strong acids – Avoid layering with AHAs/BHAs same night
🌟 What You'll Experience
Texture: Potent, concentrated serum designed for targeted spot application. A little goes a long way.
After 2-4 Weeks: Dark spots begin to lighten slightly; skin tone starts to even out
After 6-8 Weeks: Noticeable fading of hyperpigmentation; brighter, more uniform complexion
After 12+ Weeks: Significant reduction in dark spots; visibly brighter, more even-toned skin; prevention of new pigmentation
Note: Results vary based on pigmentation depth and type. Deeper pigmentation may take longer. Consistency and SPF use are critical for success.

🌿 Why Kojic Acid Over Other Brighteners?
Kojic Acid: Inhibits melanin production (prevents + fades)
