How Bakuchiol Helps with Hyperpigmentation

Bakuchiol is a plant-derived, gentle alternative to retinol that has been shown to help reduce hyperpigmentation and even out skin tone. Here’s how it works and how to incorporate it into your routine:

How Bakuchiol Helps with Hyperpigmentation

Inhibits Melanin Production – Helps reduce dark spots by preventing excess melanin formation.
Boosts Collagen & Cell Turnover – Encourages skin renewal, fading discoloration over time.
Antioxidant & Anti-Inflammatory – Protects against oxidative stress that can worsen pigmentation.
Gentle Yet Effective – Unlike retinol, it’s non-irritating, making it suitable for sensitive skin.

How to Use Bakuchiol for Hyperpigmentation

1️⃣ Serum or Moisturiser: Apply a bakuchiol-infused serum or cream after cleansing, before heavier moisturisers.
2️⃣ Consistency is Key: Use twice daily for best results, as bakuchiol is safe for morning and night use.
3️⃣ Pair with Brightening Ingredients: Combine with niacinamide, vitamin C, or licorice root for enhanced pigmentation reduction.
4️⃣ Always Wear Sunscreen! SPF 30+ is essential to prevent further dark spots.
