Natural Retinol Alternative Oil Serum - no.16

€46,90
Tax included.

A luxurious oil-serum that visibly smooths, brightens, and restores bounce—without retinol. Gentle bakuchiol partners with nutrient-rich seed oils to support elasticity, even tone, and long-lasting comfort.

What it is

A retinol-free anti-ageing facial oil serum for all skin types—especially mature, dull, uneven, and dry skin—designed to help improve the look of fine lines and radiance while keeping skin velvety-soft.

Why it works

  • Bakuchiol (retinol alternative): Helps refine texture, soften the look of fine lines, and promote a more even tone—generally well-tolerated versus traditional retinoids.

  • Rosehip Fruit Oil (pro-vitamin A & omegas): Supports renewal and luminosity while helping to fade the look of uneven tone.

  • Evening Primrose + Jojoba Oils: Cushioning moisture and barrier support for smooth, comfortable skin.

  • Raspberry, Blueberry & Strawberry Seed Oils (antioxidants + tocopherol): Defend against environmental stressors for a healthier-looking glow.

  • Lightweight emollients (Decyl Cocoate, Dicaprylyl Carbonate, Coco-Caprylate/Caprate): Fast-absorbing, non-greasy finish that layers seamlessly.

Texture & scent

  • Texture/finish: Silky, lightweight oil that sinks in quickly and leaves a supple, velvety finish.

  • Scent: Subtle natural aroma with floral notes (contains perfume and geranium essential oil).

Skin type & concerns

All skin types, especially mature, dry, dull, and uneven tone. Also suitable as a booster for dehydrated or stressed skin seeking extra nourishment.

How to use

  • PM (and/or AM) after water-based serums. Press 2–4 drops into face, neck, and décolleté.

  • For extra cushion, mix 1–2 drops into moisturizer.

  • If new to bakuchiol, start 3–4x/week, then build to daily use.

  • Daytime: finish with broad-spectrum SPF.

  • When using with strong exfoliants/retinoids, alternate days to avoid over-processing.
