For decades, retinoids have been a cornerstone in the realm of anti-ageing skincare, celebrated for their effectiveness in numerous beauty products. Recognising the diverse needs of skincare users, Esse introduces a natural and gentle alternative with its latest Bakuchiol Serum. Bakuchiol, often referred to as nature’s retinol, offers an innovative solution that can help smooth wrinkles, improve skin firmness, and reduce pigmentation without the common concerns associated with traditional ingredients.

What is Bakuchiol?

Bakuchiol offers an exciting alternative to retinoids, bringing a new dimension to skincare: “Bakuchiol’s key advantage is its gentle nature, making it an excellent choice for those seeking effective skincare without harsh effects. Its photostability means it can be used safely during the day and is also a suitable option during pregnancy,” explains Trevor Steyn, founder of Esse.

Extracted from the seeds of the Psoralea corylifolia plant found in Eastern Asia, bakuchiol differs significantly from babchi oil, which is an unrefined seed oil. The refinement process is crucial, and Esse delivers the highest purity in its Bakuchiol Serum, as verified by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. This ensures that the serum is well-tolerated by all skin types, including those prone to breakouts, signs of premature ageing, and hyperpigmentation.

Benefits of Bakuchiol

Clinical studies have shown bakuchiol to achieve results comparable to retinol in reducing lines, wrinkles, and pigmentation, but without the associated side effects. Research indicates that bakuchiol boosts collagen and elastin production, enhancing skin firmness and elasticity. It has also been shown to be effective in reducing hyperpigmentation and age spots, matching the performance of traditional retinol-based products.

Esse Bakuchiol Serum is a seamless addition to any skincare routine, offering enhanced anti-ageing benefits.
