Retinol (Vitamin A) has been a fan fave among skincare aficionados for years now and the hype is real. Retinoids work by prompting surface skin cells to turn over and die rapidly, making way for new cell growth underneath. They hamper the breakdown of collagen and thicken the deeper layer of skin where wrinkles get their start. They are also helpful with pigmentation issues and blemish-prone skin.

So if itโ€™s so amazing, why doesnโ€™t MooGoo use it? Well, first itโ€™s well known to cause severe irritation in some people. Redness, stinging and flaky skin are a few of the signs that your skin doesnโ€™t react well to Retinol. Retinol also makes your skin more sensitive to sun exposure which is counter-productive in Australia. Retinol also comes with a warning to pregnant women and those who are breastfeeding; which is a bit concerning. Even those who donโ€™t have sensitive skin often react to it at first. Itโ€™s also not a natural ingredient.

We aim to make our products as gentle, especially the sensitive types (and arenโ€™t there a lot of us out there now!). For a few years now weโ€™ve looked at the research looking for natural ingredients that can pack the same anti-ageing punch as Retinol without the negative effects. Bakuchiol is new but has some great supporting studies. Pronounced bah-koo-chee-all, this plant-based alternative is derived from the Babchi Herb comes with some impressive antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, which is probably why it has started to earn the moniker of โ€œplant-based Retinolโ€.

Are you as cynical about anti-ageing claims as we are and want to see some studies? Try these. โ€œA randomized, double-blind assessment of topical bakuchiol and retinol for facial photo-ageing.โ€
โ€œBakuchiol: a retinol-like functional compoundโ€ Other than Bakuchiolโ€™s impressive CV, thereโ€™s much more to this silky serum. Just like all of our other skincare products, weโ€™ve packed this with an A-team of skin soothers such as Jojoba Oil, Shea Butter and Natural Vitamin E, to name a few. You wonโ€™t miss Retinol anymore.
