Description
Our Whitening Face Wash harnesses the power of glycolic acid, an alpha-hydroxy acid that accelerates desquamation of dead skin cells, promotes cell turnover, and enhances hydration by stimulating glycosaminoglycan synthesis (see Clinical Effects of Glycolic Acid) . Paired with kojic acid—a proven tyrosinase inhibitor that suppresses melanin production—this combination effectively reduces hyperpigmentation, age spots, and melasma (see Kojic Acid in Dermatology) . Together, these actives smooth fine lines, improve texture, and create a more even tone.
Advanced Exfoliation and Cell Renewal
Glycolic acid is the smallest AHA, enabling deep penetration to dissolve intercellular “glue” and loosen corneocyte adhesion (see Mechanism of AHA Exfoliation) . At home-use concentrations (5–10%), it balances efficacy and tolerance, minimizing irritation by maintaining a skin-friendly pH around 4. This leads to:
Enhanced collagen synthesis, improving firmness and elasticity
Reduction of sun-induced photoaging, such as fine lines and rough texture
Improved acne outcomes, with pore-unclogging and sebum regulation
Targeted Skin Lightening
Kojic acid, derived from fungal fermentation, works by competitively inhibiting tyrosinase—the key enzyme in melanin synthesis—which leads to visible lightening of dark spots (see Clinical Trial on Kojic Acid Efficacy) . In a 12-week study, a 1 % kojic acid formulation reduced age spots and post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation by over 60 %, with minimal irritation . Users can expect:
Faded dark spots and blemishes
Smoother transitions between hyperpigmented and normal areas
Gentle brightening without harsh bleaching
Hydration and Barrier Support
While exfoliating acids renew the surface, our mild surfactants (SLES, cocamidopropyl betaine, cocobetaine) lift impurities without stripping essential moisture. Propylene glycol and glycerin draw water into the skin as humectants, and sodium gluconate chelates minerals to help maintain an optimal pH for barrier function.
Ideal Usage Scenarios
This formulation excels in managing:
Melasma and hormonal hyperpigmentation
Post-inflammatory hyperpigmentation from acne or environmental damage
Early photoaging, including fine lines and dull texture
Acne-prone skin, through gentle pore-clearing and sebum control
Dermatologists recommend replacing your regular cleanser with this face wash once daily, followed by broad-spectrum sunscreen to protect newly exposed skin layers.
Clinical Evidence and Safety
Multiple studies confirm that at 5–10 % concentrations, glycolic acid improves texture, reduces wrinkles, and boosts collagen and hyaluronic acid levels (see Glycolic Acid in Skin Rejuvenation) . The Cosmetic Ingredient Review deems kojic acid safe at concentrations up to 1 %, with clinical data demonstrating significant hyperpigmentation clearance and minimal irritation (see CIR Safety Assessment) . We recommend patch testing for very sensitive skin; if redness or burning occurs, reduce frequency.
How to Use
Wet your face with lukewarm water.
Dispense a pea-sized amount and massage in gentle, circular motions for 30 seconds.
Rinse thoroughly and pat dry.
Follow with toner, serum, and moisturizer.
In the morning, always apply SPF 30+ sunscreen.
Use once daily; increase to twice daily only if well tolerated. Avoid the eye area.
FAQ
What skin types are best suited for this face wash?
Ideal for oily and acne-prone skin, it balances sebum control with hydration. Those with normal or combination skin may also benefit; dry or sensitive skin should patch-test first.
How soon will I see results?
Most users notice improved texture and brightness within 4–6 weeks of consistent use. Hyperpigmentation fading may take up to 12 weeks.
Can I use this with retinoids or vitamin C?
Yes—apply retinoids or vitamin C serums at alternate times (e.g., AM vs. PM) to minimize potential irritation.
Is it safe during pregnancy?
Consult your healthcare provider. While glycolic acid is often considered safe in low concentrations, kojic acid’s effects in pregnancy are not well studied.
Do I need to wear sunscreen?
