Description
Medik8 Bakuchiol Peptides 30ml is an innovative plant-based anti-aging serum designed as a skin-friendly alternative to retinol. The serum contains 1.25% pure bakuchiol , a clinically proven ingredient that effectively targets the visible signs of aging—without the irritation, flaking, or sensitivity often associated with vitamin A. This makes it ideal for those with sensitive skin or for whom retinoids are unsuitable, such as during pregnancy and breastfeeding .
Bakuchiol stimulates collagen and elastin production, making skin firmer, smoother, and visibly more youthful. The formula also contains brightening peptide precursors , which reduce pigmentation and even out skin tone by regulating melanin production. This results in a fresher, more radiant complexion and a more even skin tone. The addition of Centella Asiatica soothes irritation, reduces redness, and supports skin regeneration, which is especially beneficial for more sensitive skin types.
Rich Inca Omega oil , packed with omegas 3, 6, and 9, helps strengthen the skin barrier, reduce moisture loss, and intensively nourish the skin. This makes the serum particularly suitable during cold seasons or when the skin is exposed to drying factors such as air conditioning or heating. Thanks to its light, quickly absorbing texture, Bakuchiol Peptides is suitable for both morning and evening routines and doesn't leave a heavy or greasy feeling.
One of bakuchiol's greatest advantages is its photostability , meaning it can be used during the day without any issues. This allows you to enjoy the anti-aging benefits of this serum in any routine, without the limitations and risks of retinoids. The result is visibly smoother, plumper, and more even-toned skin, with a powerful yet gentle anti-aging effect suitable for daily use.
