Kojic Acid
Kojic acid is a natural crystal-like substance, a chelation agent that is produced by different species of fungi. In particular the Aspergillus oryzae, which is commonly called koji which is used for the lightening scars, localised bleaching skin and hinders the production of melanin and dark pigmentation from forming. It is a safe alternative to hydroquinone.
Glycerine
Glycerin, or glycerol, is derived from plant-based oils and is gentle on the skin ideal for dry and sensitive skin. The hygroscopic nature of glycerine attracts moisture from the air and the lower pH, helps the skin retain its natural moisture. At the same time, glycerin is non greasy and is a good choice for oily skin. Glycerine is beneficial for the following conditions:
-
- acne
- dermatitis (eczema)
- dry skin
- psoriasis
- rosacea
FOR BEST RESULTS
Suitable for daily use.
Apply the soap with water to the targetted area. Leave for 2 minutes and then rinse off.
Special Precautions
Although the soap is not likely to cause an allergic reaction, certain ingredients in the products may. The only way to determine your allergy risk is to do a patch test before you do a full application.
To do a patch test:
-
- Apply a small amount of your chosen soap product into the inside of your forearm.
- Cleanse and rinse the area as directed.
- Wait a day or two to see if any symptoms develop.
- If you don’t experience any irritation or inflammation, the soap is safe for use elsewhere.
Taryn –
Bought it of Takealot. Wasnt sure what to expect. Soap is harder than other kojic soaps i used but it lasts longer that way. Works well in smoothing out my skin and my pervasive acne caused by dairy mostly. Havent noticed any real lightening but it has definitely improved my skin texture and overall look. Im pleased with results
