About this deal

Bakuchiol is commonly called a retinol alternative. They both reduce the appearance of fine lines and improve skin texture. But many people with sensitive skin find retinol can cause side effects. And dermatologists don’t recommend retinol during pregnancy (it’s toxic!).

If you are looking to fade acne scars or any other scarring on your skin then this is perfect for you! This oil works to heal these imperfections by speeding up cellular turnover and collagen production. Babchi oil has anti-inflammatory properties that can help soothe redness or irritation of the face by decreasing inflammation in the skin. It also contains antimicrobial agents which speed up the healing of wounds and can help prevent scarring. In the quest for younger-looking skin, retinoids reign supreme. These vitamin A-derived topicals are one of the best-studied anti-aging ingredients on the market. Retinoids include retinol, retinoic acid and several other related substances. They boost the production of collagen, a protein that minimizes fine lines and gives skin an overall smoother and more youthful appearance. Retinoids also help even out skin tone and fade age spots. Whether bakuchiol fights skin aging as well as the long-studied retinol is the question. And the answer is based on very limited evidence.I have sensitive Asperger’s skin, and plant- based extracts that reduce fine lines and wrinkles are my area of special interest. Draelos, Z. D., et al. (2020). Clinical Evaluation of a Nature-Based Bakuchiol Anti-Aging Moisturizer for Sensitive Skin. Journal of drugs in dermatology: JDD, 19(12), 1181–1183. This article was medically reviewed by Madiha Saeed, MD, a board certified family physician. As always, this is not personal medical advice and we recommend that you talk with your doctor. Other studies on bakuchiol were conducted on skin cells or skin substitutes, which makes it hard to draw any real conclusions about how they’d perform on human skin. By comparison, retinoids have been studied since the 1980s in trials including hundreds of (human) participants. As a result, skin looks rejuvenated as it can help to minimise the appearance of wrinkles, and support pigmentation issuesas well as increasing skin firmness and elasticity. 2

It is advisable to use bakuchi only under medical supervision. It is best not to rely on research online and refer to an Ayurvedic practitioner for dosage and indications related information.Babchi oil truly is one of the wonders of ancient medicine that has frustrated modern scientists to this day. We could go on and on about how amazing this oil is. You don’t need to have vitiligo, leprosy or anything serious to use babchi oil. It has a use for even the smallest of problems from wrinkles to mood swings. So go out and get yourself a bottle. I promise no matter what, there’s always something babchi oil can make better for you. Within the complete and complex Babchi oil are many chemical components, one of which is Bakuchiol. (see diagram below, don’t worry about being a chemistry geek to understand, just notice that “Oh, Bakuchiol is a component inside Babchi!”) Although this natural compound is still somewhat under the radar, it’s beginning to gain attention in the cosmetics and beauty sector. If you have sensitive skin and experience redness or irritation from other popular skin ingredients, it may be time to give bakuchiol a try. What Is Bakuchiol? And thanks to its all-natural, plant-based roots, it’s okay to use bakuchiol alongside other skincare products. Psoralea corylifolia Linn.—“Kushtanashini” by P. S. Khushboo, V. M. Jadhav and N. S.
