Discover Bakuchiol, "Nature's Retinol"
Share
If you're looking for a natural alternative to retinol, meet Bakuchiol! Also known as "Nature's Retinol", numerous clinical studies have proven that bakuchiol is just as effective as retinol, without the side effects and limitations.
What Is Bakuchiol?
Bakuchiol is a natural ingredient derived from the seeds and leaves of the babchi plant (Psoralea corylifolia), an herb that’s been valued for centuries in Ayurvedic and Chinese medicine for its beneficial anti-aging and antioxidant properties. Unlike retinol, which can cause redness, dryness, irritation, and sun sensitivity, bakuchiol is naturally gentle and can be used by most skin types at any time of the day. Plus, studies have shown bakuchiol to have the same anti-aging effects as retinol! Here is a little more information about the benefits of bakuchiol:
The Benefits of Bakuchiol:
Smooths Fine Lines and Wrinkles
Like retinol, bakuchiol signals skin cells to speed up regeneration and stimulate collagen production, helping to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Studies published in The British Journal of Dermatology confirm that bakuchiol is comparable to retinol in reducing wrinkles, promoting elasticity, and evening skin tone - but without the irritation.
Improves Firmness and Elasticity
By supporting collagen production, bakuchiol helps improve skin firmness and elasticity, keeping skin looking plump and youthful.
Evens Out Skin Tone
Bakuchiol helps even out pigmentation, dark spots, sun damage (photo damage), and other skin discolorations by encouraging cell turnover, resulting in a more radiant and even complexion.
Suitable for All Skin Types, Including Sensitive
Because bakuchiol is so gentle, it can be safely used by all skin types, including sensitive skin. Plus, it assists with various skin conditions.
Vegan, Plant-Based Ingredient
For those who prefer natural ingredients, bakuchiol is a perfect choice since it comes from a plant and is not synthetic.
How to Use Bakuchiol:
To get the most out of bakuchiol, apply a product with 0.5%-2% bakuchiol to skin twice per day. Unlike retinol, which should only be used at night, bakuchiol can be used anytime without risk of sun sensitivity or irritation.
About our Unique Formula
There are plenty of bakuchiol serums and skincare products available, but we truly believe that ours is the best. We spent over a year developing our unique formula, and have created the first and only bakuchiol product with two forms of bakuchiol for maximum results: a 99% pure bakuchiol extract and a traditional cold-pressed Bakuchi oil from the babchi plant. This combination captures the powerful effects of standardized bakuchiol while also including the full-spectrum benefits of the babchi plant. The result? A serum that delivers deep nourishment, helps repair and rejuvenate, and leaves your skin feeling soft, dewy, and protected. This gentle and effective skincare solution is also perfect for all skin types, even sensitive.
Can I use Retinol and Bakuchiol?
Yes! If you currently use (and wish to continue using) retinol, you can still use Bakuchiol too. Studies suggest that they are a powerful duo when used together because they have similar, yet different and complementary benefits. For example, Bakuchiol contains antioxidant properties that complement the vitamin A in retinol, Bakuchiol helps stabilize retinol, Bakuchiol can be used during the daytime whereas retinol is best used at night, and Bakuchiol can help soothe and nourish skin which has been irritated by retinol.
