Kojic Acid

Kojic acid is a compound obtained naturally during the fermentation of rice, especially used in the production of sake, the popular Japanese rice wine. I love it because in addition to being natural it has wonderful properties for the skin.

One of the most notable benefits of kojic acid is its ability to help reduce the production of melanin in the skin. Melanin is the substance responsible for giving color to our skin, and sometimes, it can accumulate in excess in certain areas, resulting in dark spots or hyperpigmentation.

Kojic acid works by inhibiting the enzyme tyrosinase, which is necessary for the production of melanin, which helps to reduce spots and gradually lighten skin tone.

In addition to its ability to combat dark spots, kojic acid is also known for its antioxidant properties helping to protect our skin from oxidative stress, to keep it radiant and young for longer.

Another advantage of kojic acid is its gentle exfoliating action. Helps eliminate dead skin cells and promotes cell renewal, which helps make your skin brighter and smoother.

In addition, some people have also noticed improvements in their skin texture and a reduction in enlarged pores when you apply products that have this ingredient on a regular basis.

Glycolic Acid

Another star ingredient that cannot be missing from your skin care routine is Glycolic Acid. This little miracle ingredient has a long list of benefits that will make your skin glow like never before.

Glycolic Acid is a type of acid derived from sugar cane. Its small molecular structure allows it to penetrate deeply into the skin, which makes it a powerful but gentle chemical exfoliant on your skin, helping to eliminate dead cells to have a radiant and luminous face.

Glycolic acid also stimulates the production of collagen and elastin in the skin. These are essential proteins that keep our skin firm, elastic and youthful.

But wait, there's more. Glycolic acid can also help treat dark spots and discolorations on the skin. This ingredient helps fade age spots, acne marks and irregularities in skin tone, leaving a more even and luminous appearance.

Radiant, spot-free skin is possible with these natural ingredients!
