Bakuchiol is a plant-derived compound extracted from the seeds and leaves of the Psoralea corylifolia plant, known for its anti-aging properties similar to retinol. It offers a gentler alternative for skin rejuvenation, promoting collagen production and reducing the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles without the irritation commonly associated with retinoids.
