29Nexentury Yumi Kojic Acid

Yumi Kojic Acid is a fine, white powdery substance composed of tiny crystals the by-product of the fermentation process for sake. In skin care products, kojic acid functions primarily as a skin-lightening agent.

To understand kojic acid's effects, it is necessary to understand how the skin gets its color. The body naturally produces a pigment known as melanin through specialized cells known as melanocytes. A person's genes determine how much melanin the body naturally produces. In people with fair skin, only small amounts of melanin are manufactured by the melanocytes, while copious amounts of the pigment are made by the cells of those with dark complexions.

Age-related spots are known in dermatology as a pigmentation disorder. There are different types of pigmentation disorders, among which chloasma, senile pigment freckles, and ephelides tend to be worsened particularly by exposure to UV radiation. They are formed when cells in the skin called melanocytes produce excessive amounts of a pigment called melanin. Kojic acid inhibits excessive melanin production and exhibits whitening effects.
