Q: I am new to Bakuchiol, do I need to taper-in/ slowly introduce it to my skincare regime?
A: Not at all. Bakuchiol is a natural vegan alternative to chemically derived Retinol/Retinoid/Tretinoin. It is compared heavily to Retinol/Retinoid/Tretinoin as it scientifically produces the same results by speeding up the skin cell’s turnover rate (rejuvenating & regenerating effects) without the harsh side effects.
Q: Does Bakuchiol cause dryness like Retinol/Retinoid/Tretinoin? Do I need to do the “sandwich or layering” method?
A: No, Bakuchiol does not cause dryness hence there is no need to do the sandwich or layering method. In fact, all our Bakuchiol products are formulated to not only rejuvenate and regenerate your skin but also firm, hydrate and moisturize the skin.
Q: I have Sensitive/ Sensitized/ Rosacea/Acne Skin, can I use the Bakuchiol products?
A: Yes of course! We have had a lot of customers who have healed from Rosacea & Acne after using the Bakuchiol Range. Just take a look at our reviews and before & after album. Our Bakuchiol products are effective yet gentle enough for sensitive and sensitized skin.
Q: Would my skin purge and peel like using Retinol/Retinoid/Tretinoin?
A: No, you would not experience any purging or peeling when using our Bakuchiol products.
Q: What skincare actives should I stay away from when using Bakuchiol?
A: None. Bakuchiol is naturally derived and does not interact with any other skincare actives like Vitamin C or AHA/BHA.
Q: I am pregnant & breastfeeding, can I use the Bakuchiol products?
A: Yes, Bakuchiol is the safe alternative and does not go into the bloodstream.

A: The entire Bakuchiol range is designed to be used together to achieve maximum results.
Q: Does Bakuchiol cause increased sun sensitivity like Retinol/Retinoid/Tretinoin? Can I use it in the morning? Do I need to stay out of direct sunlight?
