Full Description 

This lightweight, oil-based serum is the ultimate plant-based solution for anti-aging, comparable to vitamin A. It harnesses the gentle power of 1.25% pure bakuchiol to promote a more youthful complexion. Unlike vitamin A, which is not recommended for use during pregnancy or nursing, this clinically proven alternative is safe and effective for all. Bakuchiol Peptides also contains brightening peptide precursors and soothing cica (centella asiatica) to maintain a glowing, even complexion. Bakuchiol Peptides, with a photostable formula, provides accelerated visible anti-aging results day and night. It is an ideal alternative to vitamin A in the CSA routine. While the formula has not been tested on pregnant women, it contains no known problematic ingredients and does not contain high levels of exfoliating acids. If you have any concerns, it is always best to consult with your doctor. Unlike topical vitamin A, there is no risk of absorption when using Bakuchiol during pregnancy or breastfeeding, making it a safer option. Similarly, it has retinol-like effects but works differently than vitamin A, so there is no need to associate the two. There is a lack of documented evidence regarding the potential risks of using Bakuchiol during pregnancy. However, based on our research and the opinions of experts, we believe that it is safe to use during this time. While most cosmetics have not been tested on pregnant women, we cannot definitively claim that any ingredient is "safe for pregnancy." Therefore, we do not make any bold claims about this product's safety during pregnancy.

Medik8 Bakuchiol Peptides is suitable for all skin types, from the oily through to the dry. Sensitive skin types especially will enjoy the benefits of Bakuchiol as an anti ageing ingredient that’s backed up by calming, soothing ingredients too!

Medik8 Bakuchiol Peptides is suitable for use during pregnancy or when breastfeeding.

How It Works

Bakuchiol is a clinically proven alternative to retinol, despite having no structural resemblance to retinoids. According to a recent study by the British Journal of Dermatology, bakuchiol is comparable to retinol in its anti-ageing effects and is better tolerated. For those unable to use vitamin A, it is the ideal substitute. With its ability to prevent and reverse premature ageing, it visibly reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. Bakuchiol also has the ability to minimise melanin synthesis, resulting in a visibly calm and even skin tone. Lipid-soluble brightening peptide precursors easily penetrate the skin, blocking pigment production and producing a visibly brighter, more even complexion with fewer instances of hyperpigmentation. Centella asiatica is a great option for visibly calming and soothing inflamed, sensitive skin. Inka omega oil is packed with omegas 3, 6, and 9, seamlessly penetrating the stratum corneum to repair the skin's natural barrier and prevent moisture loss. While bakuchiol has inherent short-term photostability, meaning it can be used both day and night, the formula has been specially optimised for long-term photostability; contained in a UV-protected glass bottle and enriched with photo-stabilising krameria triandra root extract.
For customers who are unable to use vitamin A, such as pregnant and nursing mothers*, those with vitamin A sensitivities, or those with extremely sensitive skin, bakuchiol is an excellent alternative to complete their CSA routine. The Bakuchiol Peptides formula has not been tested on pregnant women due to ethical considerations, but there are no known ingredients in the formula that could be problematic (such as vitamin A or high levels of exfoliating acids). If you have any concerns, it is recommended to consult with your doctor.
