What is Bakuchiol?

Bakuchiol is a 100% natural active ingredient obtained from the babchi seeds (psoralea corylifolia plant). Described as the true alternative to retinol, it presents striking resemblances with the performances of retinoids but is much gentler with the skin.

How does Bakuchiol work?

Bakuchiol is a retinol-alternative. It stimulates key anti-aging genes similarly as retinol, for instance retinoid binding and metabolizing genes. It is also an antioxidant, a stimulator of collagens and an inhibitor of lipo-peroxidation.

Difference between Retinol, Retinoic acid, Retinaldehyde & Bakuchiol?

Bakuchiol is not retinol, nor a retinoid compound. The chemical structure is different. However, it is considered as a retinol alternative as it functions like retinol without the drawbacks. Bakuchiol can be used during the day and is better tolerated by the skin.
