Confidence at Every Age

We believe skincare should be a moment of care, not a battle. Designed specifically for changing skin, our formula helps skin look firmer and more elastic without the harsh side effects of traditional retinoids.

Botanical ingredients

Rooted in Nature

No synthetic fragrances. No harsh fillers. Just clean, effective ingredients that respect your skin barrier. It’s the gentle power your skin has been waiting for.

The Retinol Struggle Is Real

You did everything right. Started slow. Applied at night. Wore sunscreen religiously.

And still — the peeling. The redness. The "purging" that never seemed to end. The way your skin looked worse before it looked better.

You're not alone. And you're not doing it wrong.

After 45, our skin simply doesn't tolerate retinol the way it used to. The same ingredient that works miracles on younger skin can leave mature skin irritated, reactive, and exhausted.

There's a reason women are walking away from retinol. And there's a reason they're walking toward something better.

Meet Bakuchiol: The Plant-Based Alternative Women 45+ Are Switching To

Bakuchiol (buh-KOO-chee-all) is a botanical extract used in Ayurvedic medicine for centuries. But it wasn't until 2019 that Western science caught up.

In a landmark clinical study published in the British Journal of Dermatology, researchers compared bakuchiol head-to-head with retinol. The results surprised everyone.

Clinical Results

20% Reduction in wrinkle appearance Same as retinol — without the irritation
59% Improvement in pigmentation Bakuchiol outperformed retinol (44%)
3-5x Less scaling & stinging Reported by retinol users vs. bakuchiol users

Questions? We've Got Answers.


How is bakuchiol different from retinol?

Bakuchiol is a plant-derived compound that helps skin look smoother and more radiant — similar to retinol — but without the irritation, peeling, or sun sensitivity. It works through different pathways, making it gentler for mature and sensitive skin.

Can I use this if I have sensitive skin?

Yes! Bakuchiol is known for being well-tolerated, even by reactive skin. That said, we always recommend a patch test if you're trying any new product.

When will I see results?

Most women notice their skin feels softer and more hydrated within the first week. Visible improvements in fine lines and tone typically appear after 4-8 weeks of consistent use.

Can I use this with my other skincare products?

Bakuchiol plays well with most skincare ingredients, including vitamin C, hyaluronic acid, and niacinamide. Avoid combining with strong exfoliating acids (AHA/BHA) in the same routine to prevent over-exfoliation.

Is this pregnancy-safe?

Bakuchiol is often recommended as a pregnancy-safe alternative to retinol. However, we always recommend consulting with your healthcare provider before adding any new product during pregnancy or nursing.

Why is the bottle 50ml instead of 30ml?

We believe in value. Most serums are 30ml — we give you 67% more product at a comparable price. Better results. Better value. Less running out mid-routine.
