How to Use Luna Bakuchiol Retinol Alternative in Your Skincare Routine

Are you longing for skin that feels softer, smoother, more supple, and youthful? Look no further! Our best-selling Luna Serum harnesses the power of plant-based ingredients to renew your skin's vitality.

Bakuchiol enthusiasts adore its ability to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, thanks to babchi extract—an alternative to retinol—and the hydrating properties of tremella mushroom. Infused with potent antioxidants, this formula fortifies your skin's natural moisture barrier, making it ideal even for the most sensitive skin types. Plus, its lightweight, silky texture seamlessly integrates into your skincare routine.

Curious about incorporating this purple powerhouse into your morning and evening beauty rituals? We've got you covered. Here, we address some frequently asked questions about this plant-based retinol alternative and explore complementary products that can elevate the serum's effectiveness.

Can I use Bakuchiol Serum during the day?

Unlike retinol, which can increase sun sensitivity, Bakuchiol Serum doesn't have this drawback, so it's safe to use day or night. Just remember to apply sunscreen during the day!

How should I incorporate Bakuchiol into my Skincare Routine?

Start with a gentle, low-foaming cleanser to cleanse your skin morning and night. Our Virgo Jelly Cleanser, featuring ultralight squalane and tremella mushroom, a key component in Bakuchiol, pairs perfectly with the serum. Together, they boost plumping and hydration.

Next, apply a toner enriched with ingredients that complement Bakuchiol Serum's effects. A green tea antioxidant toner minimizes the appearance of pores and saturates the skin with potent antioxidants that support Bakuchiol's blueberry stem cells. Alternatively, a soothing toner hydrates, softens, tones, and primes the skin for the serum.

In what order should I apply serum, oil, and moisturizer?

For optimal absorption, apply serums, oils, and moisturizers from lightest to thickest consistency. Consider incorporating facial massage beauty tools during the serum/oil step for a refreshed look. You can also blend facial oil and serum before moisturizer, using a tool for even distribution.

For deep moisture and plumping hydration on dry skin, mix a few drops of Bakuchiol Serum with  Facial Oil. To balance oily or combination skin while addressing wrinkle. 

Can I use Bakuchiol Serum with an exfoliating product?

Absolutely! Bakuchiol is gentle enough to incorporate into routines that include exfoliation. Try mixing Luna Serum with an exfoliating serum  for smoother, renewed skin. This combination tackles uneven skin tone and clarity effectively. Just stick to the recommended application schedule for each product."
