Frequently Asked Questions

Can I use Bakuchiol Peptides if I'm pregnant or breastfeeding?
Yes, you can. Bakuchiol Peptides is a plant-based alternative to retinol formulas and is therefore ideal for those who are pregnant or breastfeeding. Although Bakuchiol Peptides has not been tested on pregnant women due to ethical considerations, there is nothing in the formula which is known to cause any issues during pregnancy or nursing (e.g. vitamin A or high levels of exfoliating acids). If you are at all concerned, always consult your physician before use.
When and how should I apply Bakuchiol Peptides?
Bakuchiol Peptides can be applied both morning and night. After cleansing in the morning and evening, massage 6 drops across the face, neck and décolletage. Follow with a sunscreen (AM) and moisturizer (PM).
Can I use Bakuchiol Peptides alongside vitamin C products?
Absolutely. In fact, we recommend it as per our pioneering C+A skincare strategy; vitamin C by day, vitamin A by night. We would also recommend applying your vitamin C serum before Bakuchiol Peptides, and remember that Bakuchiol Peptides acts as your vitamin A within any C+A regimens.
Why have you changed the packaging of Bakuchiol Peptides?
The packaging has changed slightly to reduce weight of the product, which helps with our sustainability commitments, without affecting the fill size (which is still 30ml).
