Kojic Acid

When it comes to skincare and all the promises out there, knowing what really works can feel like decoding a secret language. At SKIN Functional, we believe the best results come from ingredients backed by science—and kojic acid is one that truly shines.

Naturally derived, kojic acid is a powerful brightening agent known for its ability to help reduce the appearance of dark spots and uneven skin tone. As a gentle yet effective tyrosinase inhibitor, kojic acid works by interfering with melanin production, helping to reveal a more radiant and even complexion over time.

Explore our range of kojic acid skin products, crafted with potent concentrations and paired with soothing ingredients to deliver visible results—without the irritation. At SKIN Functional, we cut through the noise to bring you skincare that’s intelligent, targeted, and effective.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does a caffeine and peptide serum do?

This lightweight serum is formulated for the look of the eye area and surrounding skin. Caffeine and peptides help the area appear fresher, smoother and more awake, softening the look of shadowing and tired-looking skin. It absorbs quickly and sits comfortably under makeup.

How do I apply it around the eyes?

Use a small amount and tap it gently along the orbital bone with your ring finger, staying clear of the lash line and avoiding direct contact with the eyes. Let it absorb fully before applying moisturiser or makeup. Use morning and evening for the most consistent look.

How long before I see a difference?

Skincare works gradually. Most people look for a visible difference in the appearance of the area over four to eight weeks of consistent daily use. Results vary between individuals. Using it morning and evening, alongside good sleep and sun protection, gives the most noticeable outcome.

Can I use it with my other serums?

Yes. Apply it before heavier serums and moisturiser so the lightweight texture absorbs properly. It layers comfortably with hydrating and antioxidant products. If you are also using vitamin A near the eye area, introduce products one at a time so the skin can adjust.
