Ingredients and Benefits
- Kojiglo Forte cream contains a combination of kojic acid, niacinamide, hydroquinone, arbutin, allantoin, ascorbic acid, pine bark extract, tetrahydrocurcumin, and tetrahydropiperine as active substances.
- Kojic acid and hydroquinone decrease the production of a substance called melanin responsible for skin pigmentation.
- Niacinamide decreases water loss and improves the moisture content of the skin. It also helps to lighten the hyperpigmentation of the skin.
- Arbutin prevents the action of a chemical called tyrosinase which is involved in the production of the skin pigmenting substance, melanin.
- Allantoin moisturizes the skin, soothes irritated skin, removes dead skin cells, and increases the formation of new skin cells.
- Ascorbic acid helps to reduce the damage caused by ultraviolet (UV) radiation. It strengthens the skin and is a powerful antioxidant. It works in hyperpigmentation by helping to reduce the production of melanin.
- Pine bark extract has a photoprotective effect - it protects the skin against the harmful and damaging effects of ultraviolet rays. It also improves the skin barrier function and reduces hyperpigmentation.
- Tetrahydrocurcumin has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. It prevents the formation of damaging free radicals and also prevents tyrosinase which inhibits the skin from producing the skin colouring pigment melanin.
- Tetrahydropiperine helps to increase the absorption of other ingredients into the skin.
