It\u2019s the definition of a \u201cdo it all\u201d queen, working hard to increase collagen production (insert us waving goodbye to the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles), unclog pores, reduce acne breakouts, treat hyperpigmentation, and improve the overall look of your skin. Sounds pretty perfect to us. However, as amazing a retinol is, it can potentially irritate the skin and disrupt the moisture barrier, your skin\u2019s outermost level.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You\u2019re probably wishing there was an ingredient as amazing as retinol, minus the potential irritation. Lucky for you, there is! Enter: Bakuchiol. A longtime staple in traditional Chinese and Ayurvedic medicine, the antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties make this a skincare savior in its own right. It provides the benefits of retinol, while reinforcing the skin\u2019s moisture barrier, meaning that the addition of bakuchiol to a formula with retinol allows you to fully embrace your retinol routine without worrying about any potential side effects.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So again, which is right for you when it comes to Bakuchiol vs. Retinol? The answer is both!
