Discover Bakuchiol: A Key Ingredient in the New & Improved LAMIDERM APEX Serum
At LifePharm, we are committed to innovation and excellence in skincare. That’s why we’re excited to introduce the new and improved LAMIDERM APEX serum, now enhanced with bakuchiol—a plant-based powerhouse that delivers remarkable skin-renewing benefits. This cutting-edge formula incorporates this natural retinol alternative for even greater results.
What is Bakuchiol?
According to Cleveland Clinic Health Essentials, “Bakuchiol extract comes from the Babchi plant, known for its purple blossoms and its use in Chinese and Indian medicine. The extract can be found in daily moisturizers, serums and creams.” By incorporating this ingredient into our advanced LAMIDERM APEX formula, our goal is to enhance the benefits you receive from our product. Its natural origins also make it an excellent choice for those seeking effective, plant-based alternatives to traditional anti-aging ingredients.
Bakuchiol versus Retinol: What is the Difference?
According to Cleveland Clinic Health Essentials, “Retinol — a form of vitamin A — helps improve your skin’s elasticity and thickness. Over time, retinol can help your skin’s overall texture and appearance.” They also state that bakuchiol functions like retinol to help with the following:
-
Improve skin laxity
-
Prevent clogged pores
-
Give your skin a fresh glow
-
Reduce signs of wrinkles and fine lines
-
Provide antioxidant properties
-
Diminish sun damage and dark spots
By incorporating bakuchiol into LAMIDERM APEX, we are aiming to deliver renewed radiance and youthful vitality for all skin types. Everyday Health states that, “Bakuchiol is generally less irritating, and may carry a lower risk of side effects like redness or flaking, a more recent study suggests. Bakuchiol can help renew collagen and improve skin tone and texture, and may be a safer alternative to retinol for people experiencing acne, hyperpigmentation, and sensitive skin.” Due to this, bakuchiol aligns perfectly with our commitment to delivering high-performance skincare.
The Benefits of Bakuchiol
According to Cleveland Clinic Health Essentials, some other benefits of bakuchiol are:
-
It doesn’t increase sun sensitivity: Melanin production will slow down when using retinol, and this may unfortunately increase risk of sun damage or sunburn. However, bakuchiol doesn't appear to thin the outer layer of the skin, which is one reason why retinol will increase the sensitivity to the sun. Regardless of whether you use bakuchiol or retinol, you should still apply sunscreen to your skin when going out in the sun.
-
It is gentler on the skin: Bakuchiol is regarded as gentler on the skin, making it a potentially better option for individuals who have skin sensitivities such as rosacea or eczema. A 2019 study indicates that bakuchiol is as effective as retinol in addressing the signs of aging. It also found that bakuchiol is less likely to cause unwanted reactions such as itching, redness, and irritation compared to retinol.
Bakuchiol offers a promising alternative to retinol, providing similar benefits but with a gentler effect on the skin. For those with sensitives, this makes it an appealing choice. Whether incorporated into a skincare routine for its soothing properties or its effectiveness in addressing signs of aging, bakuchiol stands out as a well-tolerated and beneficial ingredient. While bakuchiol offers numerous benefits and is generally well-tolerated, it is always best to consult with a dermatologist or skincare professional to ensure it aligns with your unique skin type and needs.
Why We Chose Bakuchiol for LAMIDERM APEX
At LifePharm, we continuously seek out scientifically backed ingredients that align with our mission of providing high-quality, effective skincare solutions. Bakuchiol stood out because of its impressive ability to support collagen production, even out skin tone, and enhance skin elasticity—without the common drawbacks associated with traditional retinol. By incorporating it into our LAMIDERM APEX formula, we aim to ensure that our product remains suitable for all skin types, including those prone to irritation or sensitivity.
How Bakuchiol Works with Our Other Key Ingredients in LAMIDERM APEX
Exclusive to LAMIDERM APEX, the fertilized egg bioactive growth factors are proteins that signal skin cells to repair and regenerate like they did when you were younger. These growth factors are extracted from ethically sourced, fertilized avian eggs during a unique 9-day incubation process for maximum potency. Our other key ingredients include:
-
Niacinamide: Reduces redness, evens tone and strengthens the skin’s barrier.
-
Shelf-Stable Vitamin C: Protects against free radicals while brightening and revitalizing skin.
-
Hydration Dew Complex: Delivers intense moisture deep into the skin, keeping it hydrated and glowing for days.
With the addition of bakuchiol, our new formula becomes even more powerful. While our proprietary growth factors work to support cell renewal and skin repair at a deep level, bakuchiol enhances these effects by helping to boost skin firmness and radiance. This combination provides comprehensive skincare benefits for those looking to maintain healthy, glowing skin.
How to Incorporate LAMIDERM APEX into Your Skincare Routine
To maximize the benefits of bakuchiol in LAMIDERM APEX, apply the serum to clean skin in the morning and evening. After cleansing, pat your skin dry and apply 1-2 pumps on your face, neck, and décolletage evenly. Pat the serum into your skin to help with absorption. Follow up with this by pairing with a hydrating cream to lock in the benefits for best results. Unlike traditional retinol, which can increase sun sensitivity, bakuchiol is gentler, making it an excellent choice for both daytime and nighttime use.
