Whether you’re avoiding retinol due to skin sensitivity or are looking for a plant-based alternative, Bakuchiol is here as the vegan, cruelty-free, sensitive-skin-friendly option. This 100% natural ingredient is clinically proven to be equally as effective as retinol at reversing ageing, protecting skin from further damage, and improving problem skin.

Bakuchiol has been shown to boost collagen production, improve skin tone and texture, and reduce hyperpigmentation, inflammation, fine lines, wrinkles, and acne. Unlike Retinol, Bakuchiol does not cause irritation or sensitisation. It can be applied morning and night – making it the superior choice for all skin types, including sensitive and acne-prone skin.

Housed in a sustainable glass jar with an aluminum lid, this lightweight serum is formulated with vegan squalane to instantly moisturise and smooth skin. This super-powered plant-derived ingredient enhances the skin's natural barrier and locks in moisture for plump, radiant skin.

Great addition to my beauty routine

"I've really been enjoying the INIKA Bakuchiol Serum. It has such a lovely lightweight texture and sinks into my skin beautifully without feeling sticky or heavy. My skin feels great and I love that it is a gentle alternative to Retinol. It's become such an easy addition to my skincare routine and leaves my skin looking fresh and healthy. Definitely a product I will keep using"

Jane (5/5)

Silky smooth skin

"I got this product from INIKA Organic to try, and I’m leaving my honest thoughts 🤍 I’ve been trying the Bakuchiol Serum and I’m really loving how silky and lightweight it feels on my skin. It absorbs beautifully without leaving my skin feeling greasy, and afterwards my skin feels really soft, hydrated and smooth. I also love that it’s a natural, plant-based alternative to retinol, especially for those of us who want to incorporate an anti-ageing serum into our routine without something feeling too harsh. After using it consistently, my skin has been looking more fresh and glowy, and I love how nourished it feels. ✨ Definitely one I’ll be keeping in my skincare rotation! 🤍"
