What is sel bakuchiol and why is it the perfect substitute for retinol?
In the world of natural skincare, few things generate as much interest as retinol substitutes. And among them all, one stands out above the rest: bakuchiol . Its popularity is no coincidence. More and more people are looking for effective formulas that are kind to their skin—especially sensitive skin—and also to the planet.
Bakuchiol offers anti-aging benefits comparable to retinol , but without causing redness, peeling, or sun sensitivity. In this article, we'll tell you what it is, how to use it, and why it's the star ingredient in our All in One Cream.
What is bakuchiol and why is it considered vegan retinol?
Bakuchiol is a plant compound extracted from the seeds and leaves of the Psoralea corylifolia (Babchi) plant, traditionally used in Ayurvedic and Chinese medicine.
Although it is not chemically similar to retinol , it acts in a similar way:
-
Stimulates cell renewal
-
Improves texture and elasticity
-
Reduces expression lines
-
Unifies tone and combats hyperpigmentation
But with a great advantage: it does not irritate the skin.

Benefits of bakuchiol versus retinol
✅ Suitable for sensitive skin
Dermatological studies confirm that bakuchiol is well tolerated even in cases of rosacea, eczema or cosmetic intolerance syndrome .
✅ Antioxidant and anti-inflammatory
Protects the skin from oxidative damage and soothes redness, thanks to its natural anti-inflammatory action.
✅ Use day and night without restrictions
Unlike retinol, bakuchiol is not photosensitive , so you can use it morning and night without increasing your sun sensitivity.
