Macaela Mackenzie, Allure, explains: “what is Bakuchiol (Sytenol@A) Experts explain the benefits of the natural alternative to Retinol. She writes: Good news for those with sensitive skin: finally, skin-care formulas are starting to include a less-irritating, natural alternative to Retinol known as Bakuchiol (Sytenol@A), the gentle, vegan ingredient is about to blow up the skin-care world”.

Deanna Pai, New York Magazine, writes: “Raja Sivamani, MD a clinical dermatologist at UC-Davis who led a recent study comparing Bakuchiol (Sytenol@A)  and retinol, says these results are because Bakuchiol (Sytenol@A)  seems to be activating the genes that regulate collagen and elastin production — the same ones retinol activates”.

Rachel Grabenhofer, Cosmetics & Toiletries, raises a good question: “could Bakuchiol (Sytenol@A)  be Retinol’s match? Retinol is the go-to ingredient in many consumers' anti-aging regimens, but a new study reveals that Bakuchiol (Sytenol@A) is just as effective—with less skin scaling and stinging”.
