Frequently asked questions

What is Kojic Acid and how does it work?
Kojic Acid is a natural ingredient derived from mushroom fermentation. It is one of the most commonly used active ingredients for hyperpigmentation in cosmetics. How it works: it inhibits tyrosinase, the enzyme that produces melanin. As a result, existing dark spots gradually fade and new pigment formation is prevented. Kojic Acid is well-researched and widely accepted as a safe and effective ingredient.
What is the difference between this exfoliator and the Targeted Dark Spot Care?
These are two complementary products with different purposes. This exfoliator combines Kojic Acid with physical exfoliation (Perlite) and is for use 2-3 times a week on the face and body — for overall texture improvement and hyperpigmentation treatment. The Targeted Dark Spot Care is a light serum (15ml, €23.90) with 1% Kojic Acid for daily use on specific spots. For optimal results: use both — the exfoliator for overall treatment, the spot care for targeted areas.
Can I use this daily?
No, not recommended. A maximum of 2 to 3 times a week. Too frequent exfoliation can damage the skin barrier, which can actually cause more dark spots. It's better to use it consistently twice a week than daily for one week and then stop due to irritation.
Is this suitable for the body?
Yes, this product even excels there. Application on dark areas such as elbows, knees, armpits, and buttocks is ideal. It also works well against post-acne pigmentation on the back or chest. For the body, you can massage a little more firmly than for the face — the skin there is thicker and can handle more.
Why is SPF so important after use?
Kojic Acid (and Lactic Acid in this formula) reduce the skin's natural protection against UV radiation. Without SPF, you could develop more dark spots during your exfoliation routine — the opposite of what you want. SPF 30+ daily is essential, not optional.
Does this product contain nuts?
The product is nut-free. However, it does contain a distinct aroma with natural essential oils such as citrus, peppermint, and woody notes. If you have perfume sensitivity, this might be less suitable — consider our AHA Peeling Concentrate as a fragrance-free alternative.
