WHAT IT IS

What is Bakuchiol in Skincare?

A 2024 dermatology review summarizes published studies and concludes bakuchiol can improve photoaging outcomes with minimal side effects in available trials, while also discussing that evidence depends on product design and study quality.

HOW IT WORKS

How Bakuchiol Works in the Skin

Bakuchiol is generally framed as an antioxidant that supports visible renewal and tone/texture improvements. Its popularity in skincare is largely tied to “retinol-like results” with better tolerability for some users.

BENEFITS

Benefits of Bakuchiol

WHAT MAKES US DIFFERENT

What Makes Bakuchiol Different

Dr. Zenovia doesn’t only use bakuchiol as a “trend ingredient.” The brand places bakuchiol inside multiple formulas (including alongside REG-ulate360™ positioning), which reinforces it as part of a system designed for clinically complex and sensitivity-prone skin.

Dr. Z’s Clinical Insight

“When cleansing, water temperature matters… use moderately warm (not hot) water… Follow with your favorite serum and moisturizer to lock in hydration.”
