Bakuchiol Serum
Alternative to Retinol
GENTLE RETINOL ALTERNATIVE | EASE FINE LINES | DIMINISH DISCOLORATION | IMPROVE SKIN TEXTURE | BRIGHTEN SKIN
From the Ayurvedic Babchi plant, bakuchiol is said to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines and lock in moisture for a smoother skin.
Bakuchiol is a skincare ingredient made from plants that can help you fight the signs of aging. Bakuchiol is a retinol alternative that stimulates collagen production and cell turnover in the same way as retinol but does not cause redness or sensitivity, making it an ideal option for sensitive skin.
How does bakuchiol work?
Bakuchiol is an ingredient in vegan skincare that comes from the seeds and leaves of the Psoralea corylifolia plant. It has a noticeable soothing effect on the skin, is a potent antioxidant, and reduces visible environmental skin discolorations. Bakuchiol is increasingly being included in skincare products due to its ability to reduce the appearance of wrinkles and fine lines. Bakuchiol comes from Chinese medicine, and the most recent research demonstrates that applying it topically has distinct advantages for all skin types.
