INGREDIENT

THE

“GENTLER”

RETINOL

Bakuchiol, the trendy

skincare active, is derived

from the seeds of the

babchi plant, long used

in Chinese and Indian

Ayurvedic medicine. It’s

said to have similar gene

expression to the gold

standard wrinkle reducer

retinol, but without the

potential sensitivity-

causing side effects.

LAB LOWDOWN “A study

in the British Journal of

Dermatology found that

both topical retinol and

bakuchiol significantly

decreased the appear-

ance of lines and hyper-

pigmentation in 12 weeks,”

says GH Beauty Lab

Chemist Danusia Wnek,

but that retinol users

reported more stinging

and scaling. “Additional

research is needed, but

the initial results are

promising.”— With report-
