📏 How to Use in Formulations

Best dissolution method: Dissolve Kojic Acid in Propylene Glycol (PG) or Butylene Glycol first (1:2 or 1:3 ratio), then add to water phase. This prevents clumping and ensures stability.

Add during cool-down phase (below 40°C) for best stability. Always pH-balance to 4–6 for optimal efficacy.

Example Brightening Serum Formula:

• Distilled Water — 75%
• Propylene Glycol — 5%
• Kojic Acid (dissolved in PG) — 2%
• Niacinamide — 5%
• Alpha Arbutin — 2%
• Hyaluronic Acid — 1%
• Allantoin — 0.5%
• Preservative — 0.5–1%
• pH adjust to 5.0–5.5
