DeTan Soap - Pack of 4
Say hello to the Detan Bar. This is way more than just another bar of soap. It is a functional treatment engineered to actually address the science of your skin tone. While standard cleansers stop at surface dirt, this formulation steps in to break the hyperpigmentation cycle, lifting that stubborn tan and restoring your natural radiance.
At its core is our Tri Active Brightening Complex, a strategic blend of Kojic Dipalmitate, Niacinamide, and Vitamin C that works to regulate melanin production at multiple stages. To make sure these results never come at the cost of your skin health, we have fortified the bar with a rich lipid profile of Almond Oil and Olive Esters, maintaining a resilient skin barrier while you brighten up. It is basically the perfect balance of a corrective dermatological treatment and a nourishing daily essential.
- Kojic Dipalmitate (1.50%)
Function: This is an ester of Kojic Acid. Standard Kojic Acid is unstable and turns brown. Kojic Dipalmitate is the superior, stable, lipid-soluble version. It penetrates the skin better than plain Kojic Acid. It works by chelating Copper ions in the Tyrosinase enzyme, effectively turning off the "switch" that produces melanin (pigment). - Niacinamide (1.00%)
Function: Vitamin B3. While Kojic stops melanin production, Niacinamide stops the transfer of melanin to the upper skin layers. It also boosts ceramide production (strengthening the skin barrier) and regulates oil. - SAP - Sodium Ascorbyl Phosphate (0.10%)
Function: A highly stable, water-soluble derivative of Vitamin C. It acts as an antioxidant, neutralizing free radicals generated by UV exposure (the sun). It also brightens skin tone. - Soap Noodles (92.10%)
This is the structural backbone of the soap. It provides the foaming and cleansing action. "Sodium Palmate" gives the bar hardness, while "Sodium Cocoate" provides fluffy, rich lather. - Caprylic/Capric Triglyceride (1.50%)
Function: Derived from coconut oil and glycerin. It is an excellent emollient that repairs the skin surface and prevents moisture loss. - IPM - Isopropyl Myristate (1.00%)
Function: A synthetic oil used as a penetration enhancer. It helps the active ingredients (Kojic) dive deeper into the epidermis where they are needed. It also provides a "dry oil" feel, reducing greasiness. - Olivum 300 (0.50%)
Function: A water-soluble derivative of olive oil. It lowers the "irritation potential" of surfactants. It provides "superfatting" qualities—meaning it leaves a microscopic conditioning layer on the skin after rinsing. - Almond Oil (0.10%)
Function: Rich in Vitamin E and fatty acids. - Sodium Citrate (0.30%)
Function: Buffers the pH. Helps the preservatives work better and boosts foam in hard water. - SMBS (Sodium Metabisulfite), Tinoguard TT, BHT (0.10% each)
Function: These are critical antioxidants for the formula itself. Kojic Acid and Vitamin C oxidize (turn brown) easily. These ingredients ensure your soap stays white/light and fresh-smelling throughout its shelf life. - EDTA (0.10%)
Function: Chelating agent. It grabs minerals in tap water (calcium/magnesium) so the soap lathers even in hard water. -
Perfume (1.50%)
Function: Sensory experience. 1.5% is a generous dosage, implying a luxurious, lingering scent (likely floral/fresh based on "Elegance").
