Bakuchiol: A clinically proven plant-based active ingredient. It visibly fights the signs of aging without the sensitizing or irritating effects of a traditional retinol
There’s a reason bakuchiol is touted as nature’s safer version of retinol. It has soothing, anti-inflammatory and anti-bacterial properties that help to comfort skin and minimize issues associated with sensitivity and reactivity. It can also be used on sensitive skin types with present eczema/atopic dermatitis, rosacea and cosmetic intolerance syndrome.

- Alternative Solution for Sensitive Skin
There’s a reason bakuchiol is touted as nature’s safer version of retinol. It has soothing, anti-inflammatory and anti-bacterial properties that help to comfort skin and minimize issues associated with sensitivity and reactivity. It can also be used on sensitive skin types with present eczema/atopic dermatitis, rosacea and cosmetic intolerance syndrome.
- Slows Photo-aging Process
According to research, bakuchiol has the potential to stop photo-aging before it starts, when applied topically. Clinically, bakuchiol is shown to improve signs of the photo-aging process, which includes fine lines, wrinkles, uneven skin tone and hyperpigmentation, to a degree comparable to retinol, even after UV exposure. Plus, it works by increasing cell turnover (just like retinol), but doesn’t have the same sensitizing effects that retinol does including flaking and peeling. In turn, it stimulates collagen production and improves skin laxity and bounce.
- Can Ward Off Cancer-Causing Cells
Besides being used as a cosmetic ingredient for its antioxidant, anti-aging, and acne reducing effects, studies also show that bakuchiol has chemopreventive properties that inhibit and suppress the proliferation of skin cancer cells by targeting Hck, Blk, and p38 MAP kinase (enzymes that speed up chemical reactions in the body).
Conclusions
So as it turns out, once again, Mother Nature has cultivated a better solutions to various skin afflictions; one only has to look beyond the surface.
