Derma 2% Kojic Acid Face Serum

This leave-on serum from Honasa Consumer features 2% kojic acid, a compound long used in skincare for its tone-evening reputation. It targets visible dark spots and uneven patches with focused daily use.

• Fading dark spots and post-acne marks
• Evening out uneven skin tone
• Brightening dull-looking skin

Kojic acid is studied for its ability to slow the activity of tyrosinase, an enzyme involved in melanin production. Lowering melanin output gradually softens the look of pigmentation, especially with consistent use over weeks.

Apply a few drops to clean skin, gently pat in across face and neck and follow with moisturiser. Use sunscreen the next morning, since brightening ingredients can leave skin more sun-aware.

• Mild tingling or warmth on first use
• Occasional dryness
• Rare redness or sensitivity

Patch test before regular use. Avoid the eye area. Stop if persistent irritation appears. Pregnant or breastfeeding users should consult a doctor before adding brightening serums. Always pair with daytime sun protection.

Store below 25°C, away from direct light and heat. Close the cap tightly after each use. Keep out of reach of children.
