This 1.7 oz moisturizer cream is formulated with bakuchiol, a plant-derived ingredient commonly used as an alternative to retinol. The cream combines bakuchiol with squalane, aloe, hyaluronic acid, vitamin E, and vitamin B5. All ingredients are derived from natural plant sources, making it suitable for those seeking a retinol-free skincare option.

Bakuchiol is known for its potential to support skin texture and firmness without the irritation often associated with retinol. Squalane provides lightweight hydration, while aloe and hyaluronic acid help maintain moisture levels. Vitamin E and B5 contribute to skin nourishment and soothing properties. The formula is designed to be gentle, making it appropriate for various skin types, including sensitive skin.

This cream is particularly suited for individuals looking to incorporate a retinol alternative into their daily skincare routine, especially those with reactive or easily irritated skin. It can be used as part of a morning or evening regimen, applied after cleansing and before sunscreen or makeup. The texture is non-greasy and absorbs quickly, allowing for comfortable wear under other products.

The product is free from synthetic fragrances, parabens, and harsh chemicals, aligning with a preference for clean beauty formulations. It is packaged in a 1.7 oz jar, offering a practical amount for regular use. As with any skincare product, a patch test is recommended before full application to ensure compatibility with individual skin needs. This moisturizer provides a balanced approach to hydration and skin support without relying on retinol.
