Bakuchiol

Bakuchiol comes from the seeds of the babchi plant, Psoralea corylifolia, and is not a retinoid. It asks skin for the same things retinol does — smoother texture, softer fine lines, a more even tone — without the dryness and peeling that make people quit retinol. In a small twelve-week trial against retinol it matched it on lines and pigmentation, and skin tolerated it better. That is why it can go on every morning and every night, and why it is the active in BAKUCHI.
