Cosmate® KA, a revolutionary skincare ingredient derived from kojic acid (KA), a natural metabolite produced by fungi. Known for its ability to inhibit tyrosinase activity in melanin synthesis, Cosmate® KA effectively prevents pigmentation. By binding to copper ions in skin cells, it mitigates tyrosinase activity more effectively than any other skin brightener. This ensures superior brightening results, making it ideal for addressing freckles, age spots and general pigmentation issues. Now included in a wide range of cosmetic products, Cosmate® KA offers a powerful solution for achieving a more even, more radiant complexion.
