Bakuchiol Night Restorative Serum
Everything retinol promised. Delivered by a plant, not a lab. Without the irritation, the purging, the sun sensitivity, or the six-week adjustment period.
The Bakuchiol Night Restorative Serum is a pure dry face oil — completely anhydrous (water-free), based on plant-derived Squalane. Squalane is a skin-identical lipid derived from sugarcane that absorbs without residue and does not clog pores. Unlike most facial oils, this formula leaves no greasy film — Coconut Alkanes and Coco-Caprylate/Caprate create a silky dry-oil texture that absorbs in under 30 seconds.
Bakuchiol — from the seeds of the babchi plant (Psoralea Corylifolia) — has been used in Ayurvedic medicine for over 2,000 years under the name Bakuchi, classified as a Rasayana herb: a substance that renews tissue, extends vitality, and reverses the signs of ageing. In 2018 the British Journal of Dermatology published a double-blind, randomised controlled trial directly comparing Bakuchiol to retinol. The conclusion: equivalent results for fine lines, skin firmness, and pigmentation reduction — with statistically significantly less irritation and no sun sensitivity.
Five skin-renewing seed oils support the Bakuchiol: Rosehip (Rosa Canina) for its natural trans-retinoic acid precursor; Raspberry Seed (Rubus Idaeus) for exceptional omega-3 content; Crambe Abyssinica for erucic acid barrier repair; Sweet Almond for softening; Wheat Germ for Vitamin E overnight protection. Beta-Carotene, Xanthophylls and Tocopherol provide antioxidant protection precisely when the skin needs it most — peak cell turnover occurs between 11pm and 4am.
The fragrance is a single botanical: Neroli (Citrus Aurantium Amara Flower Oil) — the oil of bitter orange blossom, with its own documented skin-toning and calming properties. No synthetic parfum.
Apply 4–5 drops to clean, toned skin. Pat — do not rub. Follow with the Saffron Radiance Moisturizer to seal.Buy now at https://www.pranabeauty.com/products/bakuchiol
