Bakuchiol Skin Care: A Plant-Based Retinol Alternative for Face, Neck and Body

Each part of your routine does a different job, and there’s a bakuchiol formula for every one of them.

• Serums and drops. Apply serums before moisturizer for a more concentrated dose of actives. The Bakuchiol Vitamin C+E Serum pairs bakuchiol with vitamin C and vitamin E for brightness and antioxidant support. The Founder’s Vault Bakuchiol Boosting Drops are a concentrated treatment you can layer under your regular serum or moisturizer. The A+B+C Magic Serum works on both face and body, and brightens and softens the look of dark spots.
  
• Day, night, and rich creams. The Moisture Replenishing Day Cream is light enough to sit under SPF and makeup, while the Recovering Night Cream is richer and meant for the last step before bed. The Super Cream with Bakuchiol combines bakuchiol, niacinamide, and shea butter, and works beyond the face on the neck, hands, and body. Find your match in the moisturizer collection.
  
• Face oils and masks. The Restoring Face Oil with Bakuchiol layers under your cream and works best on slightly damp skin. The Overnight Sleep Mask with Bakuchiol is a leave-on treatment for the last step of your evening routine, two to three times a week.
  
• Neck and eyes. The Neck Firming Complex with Bakuchiol is a dedicated bakuchiol neck cream made for the neck, jawline, and chin, and it helps firm the look of necklines. The Revitalizing Eye Cream with Bakuchiol is designed for the delicate skin around the eyes, and our bakuchiol eye cream layering guide shows where it fits in your routine.
  
• Lips and body. The Lip Balm and Lip Mask bring bakuchiol to the delicate lip area day and night. For the body, the Dry Oil Body Mist with Bakuchiol is a lightweight, non-greasy mist that absorbs quickly, and the Shower Oil with Bakuchiol cleanses while helping skin retain moisture.

You don’t need every product here. Start with one or two and build from there.

• Morning. Cleanse, then press the Vitamin C+E Serum into clean skin. Follow with eye cream and day cream, and finish with SPF.
• Evening. Remove the day with the Revitalizing Cleansing Oil with Bakuchiol, then apply your serum, followed by eye cream and night cream. Use the Neck Firming Complex on your neck and jawline morning and evening, and add the sleep mask as the final step a few nights a week.
• Order and patience. Apply products from thinnest to thickest, and let each layer absorb before the next. Bakuchiol works gradually, so give your routine four to six weeks before adjusting it, and change one product at a time.
