A retinoid-adjacent oil for anyone whose skin will not tolerate retinal, or who wants something to alternate with it. Bakuchiol at 2% - the concentration used in the published comparison studies, not the trace amount that lets a brand name it - carried in cold-pressed rosehip, camellia and marula oils with a squalane cut to keep it from sitting heavy.
Eight drops warmed between the palms and pressed into damp skin is the whole method. In a 12-week user trial of 94 volunteers, 84% reported improved luminosity and 71% reported more even tone across the cheeks. Safe to use morning and evening, and safe during pregnancy, which is why half our clients came to it in the first place.
