Bakuchiol oil

What is Bakuchiol?

Bakuchiol is a natural alternative to retinol. Bakuchiol is anti-inflammatory and is well-known in the skincare world for its many benefits. It has the ability to reduce the appearance of fine lines, thus giving the face a more radiant appearance.

It's an antioxidant derived from babchi seeds. Bakuchiol has anti-aging properties that stimulate cell renewal and collagen production. It also helps fight against everyday aggressions: sun, stress, pollution, cold... by countering free radicals.

The plant is native to India. In traditional medicine, it is used to treat certain skin conditions (psoriasis, scabies, ringworm, etc.) thanks to its antibacterial, antifungal, antioxidant, and anti-inflammatory properties. Chinese experts use bakuchiol to soothe wounds.

Bakuchiol is a great ally for sensitive skin looking for a youthful, smooth appearance. Bakuchiol significantly improves skin elasticity, firmness, and hydration. The bakuchiol compound also has an effect on the skin's collagen and elastin.
