Bakuchiol
NOT TO BE APPLIED DIRECTLY TO SKIN
100% Natural. Extracted and purified from edible seeds. Bakuchiol is a natural alternative to retinol but without any of the associated negative side effects, particularly for sensitive skin.
Bakuchiol is a natural, plant-derived ingredient that has gained popularity in skincare for its potential anti-aging benefits. It is often considered a botanical alternative to retinol, offering similar effects without some of the potential drawbacks associated with retinoids.
It has been shown to exhibit retinol-like effects on the skin, such as promoting cellular turnover, which can contribute to a smoother and more even complexion, often included in anti-aging formulations to address fine lines and wrinkles.
Bakuchiol may stimulate collagen synthesis in the skin. Collagen is a key protein that provides structural support to the skin, and increased collagen production can contribute to improved skin firmness and elasticity.
Its antioxidant properties can help to protect the skin from damage caused by free radicals, helping to prevent premature ageing and maintain overall skin health.
Unlike some retinoids, bakuchiol is generally well-tolerated and less likely to cause irritation, peeling, or dryness. This makes it a suitable option for those who may experience sensitivity with traditional retinol products.
Bakuchiol does not cause photosensitivity, meaning it can be used during the day without an increased risk of sun damage. (However, it's always important to use sunscreen during the day to protect the skin.) This makes is suitable to formulate for both day and night treatments.
Regular use of bakuchiol may contribute to improved skin texture, making it smoother and softer. This can be particularly beneficial for individuals with rough or uneven skin.
