How To Use

Apply two pumps to the face, neck and décolletage after using your Step 2 product. We recommend applying the serum once every 2 days for the first 3 weeks. If you experience no sensitivity during this time, you can apply it daily, both am and pm. Use Bakuchiol Serum before Vit C or Vit A, or as an alternative.

Key Ingredients

Bakuchiol 1% is a clinically proven alternative to retinol extracted from the seeds of Psoralea Corylifolia. Though incredibly gentle on the skin, this powerful ingredient helps to stimulate collagen and elastin production that smooths the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Thanks to antioxidant, anti-inflammatory, and anti-bacterial properties, bakuchiol is incredibly effective in reducing blemishes and visibly diminishing scars. 

Betaine is a humectant, a molecule which binds water molecules to itself to increase the skin’s water retention and moisture absorption to provide much deeper, longer-lasting hydration in the skin. 

Glycogen promotes the production of collagen and hyaluronic acid within the skin cells to dramatically improve the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, recover skin luminosity and enhance skin tone. 

Niacinamide strengthens the skin's lipid barrier which keeps essential moisture in the skin, boosts skin's immunity and minimises the appearance of enlarged pores for a smoother, brighter and more refined appearance.

Precautions

When introducing Bakuchiol into your skincare routine, we suggest taking it slow. Although Bakuchiol is not part of the Vitamin A family, it behaves similarly and can be fast acting on certain skin types.

It's crucial to develop skin tolerance when using high-quality cosmeceutical ingredients. We recommend applying the serum once every 2 days for the first 3 weeks. If you experience no sensitivity during this time, you can apply it daily, both am and pm.

We always advise getting a comprehensive skin analysis and consultation to ensure you use the right products for your skin type. You can locate your nearest Skin Formulas Salon.

For external use only. If the product enters the eyes, rinse well with water. Discontinue use if irritation occurs.
