Bakuchiol is a plant-derived active with collagen stimulating, skin brightening, anti-oxidant and anti-microbial properties. It is widely touted as a plant-based alternative to Retinol.
Bakuchiol stimulates skin cell turnover, smooths fine lines and wrinkles, and improves skin tone and texture. It is also an antioxidant and can provide protection from free-radical damage.
Origin: Occurs naturally in the Babchi or Otholobium plants, which are flowering plants in the legume family.
Process: Psoralea Corylifolia seeds are pulverised before extracting them with ethanol, the resulting extract is filtered and purified using physical methods that isolate the Bakuchiol out so it can be concentrated.
