Kojic Dipalmitate

Low risk

Also known asKojic Acid Dipalmitate

FunctionBrightening

What it is — Kojic Dipalmitate is kojic acid esterified with palmitic acid, making it oil-soluble and far more stable than raw kojic acid.

What it does — It supports a brighter, more even tone by moderating the look of dark spots, with much lower irritation potential than unmodified kojic acid.

Typical use — Brightening and tone-care formulas, usually at low supporting levels.

Who it suits / good to know — The stabilized ester form is considered gentle; it lacks raw kojic acid's instability and sting.

Safety — DHALIORA grades it low risk in its EWG-style, ingredient-by-ingredient review. This reflects the ingredient in general and is not medical advice; patch-test if your skin is easily irritated.
