About Us
Our Mission
At Dr.kojic.com we believe that informed consumers make better choices. Our mission is to demystify the world of skincare by providing honest, ingredient-focused reviews that cut through marketing hype and help you find products that truly work for your skin.
Who We Are
We are a team of skincare enthusiasts, researchers, and industry insiders who became frustrated with the disconnect between product claims and actual results. Too often, big brands rely on flashy marketing rather than effective formulations, leaving consumers confused and disappointed.
Our collective experience spans dermatology, cosmetic chemistry, and consumer advocacy, giving us a unique perspective on what makes skincare products truly effective.
What Makes Us Different
Ingredient-First Analysis: We evaluate products based on their formulations, not their marketing budgets. Our reviews break down ingredient lists to identify effective actives, potential irritants, and formula strengths.
Brand-Independent: We're not owned by or affiliated with any skincare manufacturers. This allows us to provide unbiased assessments without corporate pressure.
Science Over Hype: We base our recommendations on scientific research and evidence, not trends or viral marketing campaigns.
Transparency: We clearly disclose when we use affiliate links and how we make our assessments, so you always know where we stand.
Our Review Process
Each product we review undergoes a rigorous evaluation:
Ingredient Analysis: We examine the full ingredient list, focusing on active ingredients, their concentrations (when available), and formula stability.
Claims Verification: We compare brand claims against scientific research to determine if a product can realistically deliver its promised results.
User Experience: We consider texture, scent, application, and overall user experience.
Value Assessment: We evaluate whether the price is justified by the formulation and results.
Long-term Testing: When possible, we test products for extended periods to evaluate true effectiveness.
