Korean Bakuchiol Concentrate DIY Mix-in Serum 30,000 ppm - High Potency Retinol Alternative | Wrinkle Reduction Skin Firming & Smoothing - Anti-Aging Sensitive Skin Vegan & Cruelty-Free Non-GMO 1 oz

I cannot sing enough praises for this product!! It's like Tretinoin without the bad side effects! Mixed it with my other serums, vitamin E oil, and moisturizer. My skin was soft and I woke up with a glow. When I showered the next night, my skin did peel in the shower as I washed my face, but it was a gentle shedding and my skin was not left red and raw the way it can get with tretinoin. It lightens dark spots, provides gentle yet very effective exfoliation, AND it rejuvenates and plumps your skin! You really can't ask for more. This product is fabulous!

I've been on Korean skincare kick and finally after reading so much about Bakuchiol and the claims that it is a natural retinol alternative, I went ahead and purchased a bottle. I can honestly say that in just a few weeks of using this product consistently, I’ve seen very positive changes in my skin. Sidenote: This is a powerful serum and the directives say to cut this with a good moisturizer. You may or may not experience a breakout or two as I did. After continuous use, my skin is now almost used to the serum.It’s rich and very hydrating, non-greasy and has no fragrance..at least that I can detect. I use this on top of Medicube PDRN Pink Peptide Serum and The Ordinary Niaminicide to lock everything in before applying an SPF moisturizer. I also use a few droplets mixed in with my nighttime moisturizer before retiring for the evening.I’ve noticed fine lines on my face - fine lines that would remain whether my face was hydrated or not. Mostly around my eyes, but most apparent were the deepening of my smile lines. I can 100% say that this Bakuchiol has not only plumped up all of the fine lines around my eyes, but it has also radically filled in my smile lines. Not fixed completely, but they look significantly better.I highly recommend adding this Bakuchiol into your skincare regimen, with consistent use you will prosper with its effective results.

This is a great aid for your face. Smooths out dry pale skin.

Only 3% Bakuchiol, rest is butylene glycol. This should have been state prominently in description. Since it's only 3% active ingredient, I wonder why we are told to use only 2-3 drops "to dilute the concentration to 5%." This makes no sense. I'll have to find out what concentrations were used in studies. Disappointed. Smell is very light, herbal and pleasant. I am very choosy about smells. There are very few I like, and strong ones make me feel like I can't breathe. So this gets a star for smell. Seller send me the following information : To clarify the concentration: 30,000 ppm = 3% Bakuchiol in the concentrate. Because this is a high-strength mix-in, it’s meant to be blended with your base cream or lotion before use.How to mix (practical guide):Daily use: add 2–3 drops of the concentrate to about a dime-sized amount (~0.5 g) of your cream in your palm, then apply.This typically yields an effective Bakuchiol level around ~0.3–1%, which is the range commonly used in ready-to-use products.About Butylene Glycol:It is not a preservative. It functions primarily as a humectant (helps retain moisture), solvent/carrier (helps dissolve and deliver actives), and texture/spreadability enhancer to keep the formula uniform and comfortable on skin.Ours is 100% plant-derived from sugarcane.If this clarification addressed your concerns, you’re welcome—purely at your discretion—to update your review to reflect your current experience. There is absolutely no expectation to change it; your honest feedback is what matters most.If you’d like, I can also help tailor a mixing ratio to your specific base (cream/lotion type and texture). Just let me know." I appreciate all the effort.

Very nice oil which is mild and does the job around eyes!Gentle on the eyes and can be added to creams.

This bottle has lasted me quite a few months now. I only use a couple of drops and it mixes in very well with the retinol I am using. I have seen a difference in my skin and wrinkles since I started using this. Well worth the price!

As someone who was on 10 years of useless rx retinol lotions and potions, then finally 9 months of the famous oral acne medication (the one with tons of toxic side effects, rhymes with smackutane), I can consider myself an expert on retinol - something of which I had previously found to be the “gold standard” for anti-aging. But retinol always, ALWAYS, irritated my skin, made it sensitive, made it red, made it DRY! I actually had medications for the side of effects of it. For my applications, I can honestly say that topical retinol’s application for taming acne (for me) was only a measly 4.5/10, even though it DID plump my skin. But after 18 months of being off retinol, I began noticing a lot of fine lines. If my skin was dry, I looked 100 years old. And if I furrowed my brows too much? The lines would stay for a few minutes to a few HOURS. That freaked me out. But I knew I wasn’t going back to retinol and risk losing my clear skin to a round of skin purging. Enter: Celdyque Bakuchiol.I had read about bakuchiol and the claims hailing it as a natural retinol alternative but I wasn’t sure if it was just marketing. Well, I can honestly say that in just 6 weeks of using this product consistently, I’ve seen tremendous positive changes in my skin. But first let me describe the texture of the product. This serum can best be compared to the consistency of squalane oil. It’s rich and very hydrating. While I do not have sensitive skin, I find this to be extremely gentle. This product has no fragrance besides a gentle earthy smell for the first few seconds, and it does not linger. I use this on top of multiple serums to lock everything in before my spf. I also use it at night instead of a moisturizer or under my Sunday Riley Good Genes. Now let me discuss the changes I saw.As previously stated, I’ve noticed fine lines on my face - fine lines that would remain whether my face was hydrated or not. Mostly around my eyes, but most apparent were the deepening of my smile lines. I can 100% say that this Bakuchiol has not only plumped up all of the fine lines around my eyes, but it has also radically filled in my smile lines. Not fixed completely, but they look SO MUCH BETTER. I wish I took before and after photo. I’ve received compliments on my skin and people always ask me what I’m using. Besides my fine lines being filled in, I would say my pores are much tighter, skin texture is definitely smoother, and most notably, my skin tone is much brighter. I can truly attribute this product to rapidly fading my most acne hyperpigmentation and evening my overall skin tone. While I don’t have any melasma or sun damage, I did have some discoloration and mismatched tones on my cheeks and under my eyes. After using this bakuchiol, my skin tone is noticeably MUCH more even and much brighter. This does an incredible job in that arena for me. Overall I’m pleased and will keep using this. I’d recommend anyone who wants to use this for anti-aging to stick to it for a minimum of 3 months. I highly recommend it to be used in conjunction with other actives - it plays nice with others. A double blind, Thai study found that just 20,000ppm of Bakuchiol extract showed the same effects as 0.050% retinol cream without any of the harsh side effects of retinol. Scientists are still unsure of what the mechanism of action is for how Bakuchiol works to rejuvenate the skin, but what they DO know is that Bakuchiol exhibits strong antioxidant qualities, which helps fight skin aging via neutralizing free radicals.Even though they say more Bakuchiol doesn’t make it more effective, I’m happy this product has 30,000 ppm - KBeauty brands are very guilty of marketing products to have certain good ingredients, then only adding 0.01%/a negligible amount of the “star” ingredient to trick you and save themselves money. Not Celdyque! The price point is awesome too. I can’t wait to continue my journey with this serum. I highly recommend it!

I just got this and used it for 3 days and I can see a difference already - my skin appears, & feels, smoother. But what I was really surprised at is I saw where it has been used as a possible treatment for vitiligo. I will have to do some more searching to see if this is indeed a true fact as I have a family member & a couple of friends with this condition. In the meantime, I definitely will continue to add it to my skincare routine because it is nice to see a benefit so quickly.

“I highly recommend it. It’s great for my skin — it feels soft and silky. It’s worth the money paid.”

Excellent 👌
