BAKUCHIOL
Bakuchiol is extracted from the seeds and leaves of the Psoralea corylifolia plant. The extraction process involves using solvents like ethanol or supercritical CO2 to obtain the raw material, which is then purified through processes such as distillation or chromatography.
Bakuchiol is a potent antioxidant and anti-aging ingredient used in a wide variety of cosmetics and skin care products. It has the unique ability to treat skin discoloration caused by environmental exposure. Further, this ingredient fights the visible signs of aging such as wrinkles, and gives a youthful glow to the skin. Bakuchiol is better than retinol as it does not cause any side effects even though it may produce slower results. Additionally, it is great for sensitive skin types and can be used by pregnant women without worries.
It is non-irritating and suitable for sensitive skin, causing minimal to no redness, peeling, or dryness.
