Bakuchiol and Kojic acid both have roots in ancient Eastern skincare practices, drawing on the knowledge of ancient civilisations in treating skin conditions and preserving skin health. Bakuchiol is derived from the seeds and leaves of the Babchi plant, which has been used in traditional Ayurvedic and Chinese medicine for centuries to treat a variety of ailments and skin infections. It was and still is valued for its anti-aging and anti-inflammatory properties, which modern science confirms.
Kojic acid, on the other hand, was discovered in Japan as a byproduct of sake (rice wine) production. The ancient Japanese appreciated its potent skin-brightening and lightening properties, which were used to achieve the traditional ideal of flawless, porcelain skin. Its ability to brighten skin is confirmed by modern science.
When used on the skin, kojic acid helps prevent your skin from forming tyrosinase, which is an enzyme that helps create skin pigment (melanin).2 As a result, using kojic acid soap may help fade dark spots on your skin from acne scars or sun damage.
