Standardization: 10:1 Extract
Bakuchiol Liquid Extract – 100% Natural (Standardized) is extracted from the seeds of the Psoralea corylifo plant native to India and Sri Lanka. Although it is a relatively new ingredient for the skin care industry, Bakuchiol has been a staple in the Chinese and Indian Ayurvedic medicine for centuries.
Bakuchiol is a vegan, all-natural plant extract that possesses some structural similarities to that of resveratrol. Bakuchiol has been compared to retinol because it targets the same skin cells to promote a more even, supple, and healthy-looking complexion. Since it is not a chemical exfoliant, it delivers similar results without causing irritation or photosensitivity, making it an effective natural alternative to retinol. As a monocyclic monoterpene phenol, Bakuchiol has been reported to exhibit antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-bacterial activity.
Bakuchiol Extract is blended with Propanediol and is placed through a unique manufacturing technology. A biodegradable and petrochemical-free solvent, Propanediol is NPA-approved and can be used as a corn sugar-derived alternative to petroleum-based Glycols.
How does Bakuchiol Liquid Extract compare to Retinol?
Bakuchiol Liquid Extract is considered a natural alternative to retinol because it functions similarly in a skin care regimen. However, it is not considered a retinoid or a part of the retinol family because it has a different chemical structure than that of retinol.
Therefore, Bakuchiol offers many of the same skin care benefits as retinol without causing irritation or dryness. Bakuchiol is also believed to be gentle enough for daytime and nighttime wear and is suitable for use on all skin types.

Liquid Extracts FAQ
Caution: Although Bakuchiol is reputed to be a gentle ingredient, it is important to note that any ingredient can cause a reaction. We recommend conducting a patch test on an area of skin that is less sensitive. Start by using a low dosage and work your way up to using it daily.
