Bakuchiol - The revolutionary answer to retinol

It's time to dispel a widespread skincare myth: retinol has been considered the ultimate anti-ageing miracle for years and is celebrated as an effective aid against wrinkles, blemishes and a dull complexion. But as promising as it sounds, retinol also has a downside: many people struggle with undesirable side effects such as skin irritation, redness, flaking or increased sensitivity to light. In the long term, it can weaken the skin barrier and thin out the skin's structure, making it more sensitive and susceptible to external influences.

Fortunately, there is a gentler but equally effective alternative from nature: Bakuchiol - our active ingredient of the month and a real highlight of modern active ingredient cosmetics.

What is bakuchiol and why is it better than retinol?

Bakuchiol is extracted from the seeds of the babchi plant(Psoralea corylifolia), which has been valued for centuries in traditional Chinese and Ayurvedic medicine for its healing properties. It is a 100 % natural, plant-based active ingredient that has been shown in scientific studies to have a comparable anti-ageing effect to retinol - but without the typical side effects.

While retinol often irritates the skin and makes it sensitive, bakuchiol is particularly kind to the skin and is also well tolerated by sensitive skin. It is non-synthetic, non-irritating and non-photosensitive, so it can be used both in the morning and in the evening - a clear advantage over retinol, which makes the skin more sensitive to light and is often only recommended at night.

NOELIE uses bakuchiol in the highest concentration and in three of our highly effective products:
