 Bakuchi Oil (Bakuchiol oil).Cold Pressed.

A gentle, plant-based alternative to retinol—backed by science.

Often called nature’s answer to retinol, Bakuchi Oil offers similar anti-aging and acne-fighting benefits—without the irritation or dryness commonly associated with synthetic retinoids. Naturally rich in bakuchiol, this pure, undiluted seed oil supports smoother, firmer, and more radiant skin, making it an ideal choice for those seeking a gentler, plant-powered solution.

Our most frequently asked question:
"What percentage of retinol is in this oil?"
The answer: None. This oil contains no synthetic retinol. Instead, it’s made from 100% pure Psoralea Corylifolia seed oil—rich in naturally occurring bakuchiol, which may range from 1.8% to 13% depending on the batch. It mimics retinol’s effects but remains much gentler on the skin.

Perfect for natural and vegan skincare routines, Bakuchi Oil works beautifully on its own or can be blended into formulations at 5–10%. It pairs well with other botanical oils and actives, offering a well-rounded, effective approach to achieving brighter, more youthful-looking skin

Bakuchi Oil may contain anything from 1.8% to 13.0% Bakuchiol.

Bakuchiol v Babchi

Babchi oil is extracted from the seeds of the Psoralea corylifolia plant through a cold-pressing process, where as bakuchiol is extracted by isolating and extracting pure concentrated Bakuchiol oil from the babchi seed which is called monomolecular extraction. While babchi oil and bakuchiol come from the same plant, they are different natural properties when extracted.

 

Bakuchi (Bakuchiol) Oil vs. Babchi Oil

Understanding the Difference

Both Bakuchiol and Babchi oil come from the same source—the seeds of the Psoralea corylifolia plant—but the way they’re extracted makes all the difference.

  • Babchi Oil is obtained through cold-pressing the seeds, resulting in a rich, brown oil that contains a variety of naturally occurring compounds, including bakuchiol. It’s widely used in traditional Ayurvedic medicine for treating skin conditions.

  • Bakuchiol is a single active compound isolated from Babchi seeds using a process called monomolecular extraction. This refined, purified compound is used in modern skincare as a natural, plant-based alternative to retinol.

Though similar in origin, Babchi oil and Bakuchiol offer different experiences and benefits in skincare due to the nature of their composition.

Bakuchi Oil is a cold-pressed seed oil from Psoralea corylifolia, deeply rooted in Ayurvedic tradition for its ability to soothe and repair the skin.

Now gaining popularity in natural skincare, this nutrient-rich oil has powerful anti-inflammatory, antioxidant, and anti-aging properties—making it a natural, gentle alternative to synthetic retinol.

Key Benefits:

  • Natural Alternative to Retinol – Helps reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles

  •  Boosts Skin Firmness & Elasticity – Promotes collagen production for a smoother texture

  • Gentle on Sensitive Skin – Doesn’t cause irritation, dryness, or redness like retinol

  • Safe for Day & Night Use – Won’t increase sun sensitivity, though daily SPF is still recommended

  • Compatible with Other Actives – Doesn’t clash with vitamin C, niacinamide, or AHAs


How to Use:

Apply 2–3 drops directly to clean skin, avoiding the eye area. You can also blend it with a carrier oil in equal parts for added comfort. Use morning or night, before your serums or moisturizers. Always perform a patch test 48 hours before use, especially if you have sensitive or reactive skin.


What Makes It So Effective?

Since 2019, Bakuchiol has been gaining attention in the skincare world—and for good reason.

One randomized, double-blind clinical trial published in the British Journal of Dermatology found that Bakuchiol is as effective as retinol in improving:

  • Fine lines and wrinkles

  • Skin firmness and elasticity

  • Hyperpigmentation

  • Overall photodamage

Dr. Dendy Engelman, a board-certified dermatologist, explains that bakuchiol stimulated collagen production just as effectively as retinol—but without irritation. Participants who used bakuchiol twice daily for 12 weeks saw significant improvements in skin texture and tone.


Summary:

If you’re seeking a retinol-like glow without the irritation, cold-pressed Bakuchi oil is your new skincare staple. Rooted in tradition, backed by science, and gentle enough for daily use—this plant-based powerhouse deserves a spot in your routine.
