What is it?

Bakuchiol is a botanical extract derived from the seeds and leaves of the babchi plant. Often promoted as a natural retinol alternative, it provides comparable anti-aging and skin-renewing benefits with a lower risk of irritation.

What is Bakuchiol Used For in Skincare?

In dermatology, bakuchiol is commonly found in serums and moisturizers formulated for sensitive skin or those seeking a milder alternative to retinol. It helps boost collagen production, smooth fine lines, and enhance skin texture.

Bakuchiol offers benefits like improved skin smoothness and firmness, along with reduced pigmentation and redness. Unlike retinol, it’s gentle on the skin and doesn’t typically cause dryness or irritation, making it ideal for those seeking similar results without harsh side effects. It’s also considered safe for use during pregnancy and breastfeeding.
