The Perfect Compliment for Retinoid Use

If you use retinoids, either over the counter or prescription, I recommend pairing them with this product. Bakuchiol has calming properties to help the skin tolerate retinoids better. I use prescription tretinoin 0.1% and find that after incorporating this serum, I'm seeing less dryness and flakiness. Dare I say, I wake up with balanced skin that has gotten a great overnight treatment with no irritation. Moreover, bakuchiol also helps stabilize retinoids by helping the ingredient work longer before breaking down in the presence of light and air. The ingredient is supposed to be a natural alternative to retinoids and provide similar results long term. In my greedy little mind, I use them both to supercharge the benefits I get from retinoids. This is a very lightweight watery serum that sinks into the skin very quickly and provides a layer of hydration. I apply this after my toner step and before tretinoin. The results have made this an essential step in my routine that enhances my experience with tretinoin or other retinoids.
