KAD-15

1 of 2 products in this brand
This product possesses an excellent property of inhibiting the activity of tyrosinase, an enzyme present in human skin, thereby hindering melanin formation. It has been demonstrated to be more effective than straight kojic acid in this regard. Additionally, it can produce remarkable effects in achieving even skin tone, combating age spots, pregnancy marks, freckles, and addressing general skin pigmentation disorders on both the face and body. Unlike kojic acid, which often causes product stability issues such as color changes, this product offers excellent stability without any color instability problems.

    Product Benefits
    • Skin Lightening. KAD-15™ offers more efficacious skin lightening effects. Compared with kojic acid,KAD-15™ markedly enhances the inhibitory effects on tyrosinase activity, which prohibits the formation of melanin.
    • Light and Heat Stability. KAD-15™ is light and heat stable, while kojic acid tendsto oxidize over time
    • pH Stability: KAD-15™ isstable within a wide pH range of 3-10, which provides flexibility toformulators.
    • Color Stability. Unlike kojic acid, KAD-15™ does not turn brown or yellowover time for tworeasons.First, kojic acid is not stable to light and heat, and tends to oxidize, which results in color change(oftenyellowor brown). Second, kojic acid tends to chelate with metal ions (e.g. iron), which often results incolorchange.On the contrary, KAD-15™ is stable to pH, light, heat and oxidation, and does not complexwithmetalions,which lead to color stability.
