About
Bakuchiol is derived from the seeds and leaves of the Psoralea corylifolia plant. Often referred to as “nature’s retinol,” it delivers similar anti-aging benefits like reducing wrinkles, promoting elasticity, and enhancing radiance, but it’s much gentler on the skin, making it ideal for sensitive skin types.
ScienceBakuchiol works by stimulating collagen production and providing antioxidant protection. Unlike retinol, it doesn’t increase photosensitivity, so it can be used during the day. Studies show it to be as effective as retinol at improving the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles.
History
Used for centuries in traditional Ayurvedic and Chinese medicine, Bakuchiol has a long history of use for its skin-healing properties.
Provenance
Bakuchiol is commonly found in India and other parts of Asia, where it’s harvested from the plant’s seeds.
