A Cosmetics & Toiletries article by Michele Behrens, “Bakuchiol Shown to Reverse Cellular Mechanisms of Facial Aging” paraphrased current research into bakuchiol. The researchers in “International Journal of Cosmetic Science” assessed the activity of bakuchiol utilizing in vitro, ex vivo and in vivo studies, and compared the findings.
The authors compared bakuchiol and retinol, a well-known topical anti-aging treatment, in terms of their activity profiles in vitro, ex vivo and in vivo. In comparison to retinol, the antioxidative power of bakuchiol was particularly impressive. Furthermore, wounds treated with bakuchiol revealed a marked rise in epidermal regeneration, whereas retinol did not.
After a month of using a bakuchiol-containing formulation on the afflicted area, FN protein values were recorded as significantly higher than in areas that had not received treatment and those that were treated with the vehicle.
The results suggested that bakuchiol is efficacious in multiple directions to combat signs of aging skin. Its activity profile had some similarities with retinol, and simultaneously provided some novel benefits, particularly in terms of the stimulation of FN and the quickening of epidermal regeneration and wound healing.
Reviva has recently introduced our Collagen Revitalizing Crème and Bakuchiol Plus Serum, both which contain optimum percentages of bakuchiol. “The benefits of bakuchiol are astonishing,” stated Bill Levins, President of Reviva Labs. “It’s why we’re strong advocates for this remarkable extract.” Reviva’s Bakuchiol Plus Serum combines bakuchiol with alfalfa and artichoke for an unmatched anti-aging formula. While Reviva’s Collagen Revitalizing Crème, which doesn’t contain collagen, helps to encourage the skin to look and feel better with a unique combination of ingredients, including bakuchiol.
