Natural Retinol Alternatives for Real Results with Zero Irritation

Dermatologists are obsessed with retinol, the gold-standard ingredient derived from vitamin A that’s been shown time and again in clinical studies to help boost collagen, reduce wrinkles, and zap blemishes. The catch? Retinol is not only extremely irritating and painful for most people (think: flaking, red, and raw skin), but according to the Environmental Working Group, it’s also a high hazard for many reasons, including concerns that it’s a “known human reproductive toxicant” and associated with cardiovascular disease and cancer.

Lucky for us, nature has other solutions for us that are comparable to retinol. Now, we’re not saying they’re exactly the same, but they will help you look just as glowing and youthful—without the risks and burning sensations.

 

PromaCare BKL-An Ideal Natural Replacement for Retinol

Bakuchiol is a substance (called meroterpene phenol) abundant in the leaves and seeds of the herbaceous plant Psoralea corylifolia, also known as babchi, which has been used in Chinese and Ayurvedic medicine to help treat skin conditions. Having similar structure of resveratrol, the product is an ideal natural source for anti-aging, and also in light stability, it’s better than that of retinol.

 

In studies published in the International Journal of Cosmetic Science, participants applied bakuchiol twice a day for three months and saw dramatic improvements in fine lines, wrinkles, dark spots, firmness, elasticity, and reduction in photodamage. The researchers concluded that bakuchiol “can function as an anti-aging compound through retinol-like regulation of gene expression.”
