For the best skin lightening results, we suggest a concentration of 1.5% in cream working synergistically with other skin lighteners like Kojic Acid Dipalmitate, magnesium ascorcyl phosphate (stable vitamin C) et.al. The different actives will target different steps of the melanin synthesis and delivery pathway.
