Product Description
Bakuchiol is a concentrated meroterpene phenol predominantly found in the seeds of the Psoralea corylifolia (Babchi) plant. While it has no structural resemblance to vitamin A, it is clinically proven to function as a functional analog of retinol by regulating similar gene expressions and stimulating collagen types I, III, and IV. Our high-purity Bakuchiol is a potent antioxidant and anti-aging active ideal for premium “clean beauty” formulations
