Dr. Coleman says
If you can't use a retinol you must try Bakuchiol Serum.
This light oil-based serum helps to reduce the appearance of fine lines, wrinkles and pigmentation, while improving overall skin texture and tone.
Who it's for
This light, hydrating serum is the ultimate alternative for those who can’t tolerate retinol, such as myself and about 30% of the population, and also for pregnant or nursing women.
It is suitable for all skin types including sensitive.

What on earth is Bakuchiol?
It is a fabulous ingredient sourced from the Ayurvedic Bakuchi plant and widely used in both Indian and Chinese medicine to treat a variety of diseases. It possesses anti-cancer, anti-oxidant, anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory properties.
Despite having no structural resemblance to Retinol, it was found to have similar properties in its ability to improve photoaging (wrinkles and brown spots) but has a better skin tolerance.
How to use
Apply 6 drops of Bakuchiol Peptides to the face, neck and décolletage before your other serum or moisturisers, once to twice daily.
If your make-up doesn't sit well on top, just use nightly. It can also be used as a gliding solution with your Dermaroller.
