Admire My Skin 15% Bakuchiol Serum Natural Retinol Alternative 1oz

As a bakuchiol veteran, I can say for sure that this stuff is the real deal. I’m amazed at how potent, yet gentle it is. I can no longer use Rx tretinoin anymore because it causes severe reaction and swelling, so when I saw this product had 15% bakuchiol, it made me confident giving bakuchiol a try again. Before this product, the several bakuchiol products I had previously used only had 2-3% and smelled awful. This product is excellent. It has no earthy, dirt-smelling bakuchiol scent, it just smells like a natural herbal product. It also doesn’t pill, which is amazing, because anything formulated with aloe tends to pill up horribly doesn’t. It’s very moisturizing and soothing to my skin. It reduces my breakouts too! I wake up to extremely even toned, hydrated skin. However.. I do have one big gripe with the product’s packaging. This serum is too thick for a dropper, it really needs to be in an airless pump. It’s too viscous to use in a dropper, because if you want to use two full droppers back-to-back, you have to wait for the serum to fill the area of product it just previously sucked up. The requires me to tap the bottle down on my vanity to make it settle down into that void. This is thick yet it soaks into the skin, I really need to use more than 1 dropper to feel like it’s on my entire face and neck. It might not be a problem for people who aren’t as heavy handed as I am, but in my opinion It’s just too thick for a dropper. Either way, I just bought 3 more and I’m putting it in an another bottle that’s easier to squirt out. Bottom line, I HIGHLY recommend this!!!!

Works well for me, my skin is oily, and it helps with any blotchiness, dark spots, firmness, it generally makes my skin better. Being allergic to retinol this alternative is excellent.

I don't like seeing water as the first ingredient, but I've just begun to use it so we'll see.

This product is amazing! There’s a little bit of a purge for the first week, maybe nine days or so. But after that, my skin started looking really nice. I was able to replace a $100 cream with this and I find this infinitely more effective

The product was good.

I really like this product. It makes my skin feel smooth and not irritated.

bottle is small, could be bigger. Works well though

This product is about the only oil I can use . It seems to prevent breakouts while allowing my skin to retain moisture. I always buy this brand, the price is reasonable, & shipping is quick.
