    How much

  2. @kayyjayy.29 on March 6, 2025 at 3:23 pm

    Has anyone mentioned the Herbivore bakuchiol line? I tried their eye cream in sephora and love it but it’s pricey (for me). If its worth it I’d get it but they also have a serum I’d use all over if that would be a better investment.

  3. @PamCaruso-u6f on March 6, 2025 at 3:25 pm

    I used Paula’s choice. Retinal and Bakuchiol. I thought it was fine. I am using tretinoin now at night.

  4. @Lily_of_the_Forest on March 6, 2025 at 3:26 pm

    Oh my goodness there are toooooo many products! Toooo many companies! I’m so overwhelmed. Personally, my skin is so sensitive that it would not handle retinol well. Interested in Bakuchiol but there are too many to pick from.

  5. @itactuallyperks5273 on March 6, 2025 at 3:29 pm

    What % bachuchiol is best effective???????? Would anyone know??

  6. @hibaalnajafi4027 on March 6, 2025 at 3:29 pm

    Bakuchiol for under eyes ???retinoid hurts my vision

  7. @maximomana5828 on March 6, 2025 at 3:29 pm

  8. @sandrabirch6583 on March 6, 2025 at 3:30 pm

    Peach and Lily Pure Peach retinoic eye cream 0.5% bakuchiol $43

  9. @Jaen1516 on March 6, 2025 at 3:33 pm

    Your opinion please, Have you tried MEDIK8 Bakuchiol? Bakuchiol is at 1.25% plus other goodies in there.

  10. @stefaniaburghel3669 on March 6, 2025 at 3:39 pm

    Hi! I use a retinol serum from Mary Kay, which I unsealed in February 2023. The serum expires in May 2023, can I use it until I finish it? I started using it 3 months ago and it is still more than half full….

  11. @elizabethdelgado1519 on March 6, 2025 at 3:40 pm

    I have ordered the three ships and just received it ❤ and so far so good. Love your channel and honest recommendation for budget friendly products

  12. @jlowe2314 on March 6, 2025 at 3:41 pm

    I love OM Botanical bakuchiol Serum. Actually their whole line of products make me feel so good. I love that they are clean and natural too!

  13. @MichelleNovalee on March 6, 2025 at 3:43 pm

    I found 5% bakuchiol for only $30 from Gaia Body Care with 100% natural ingredients.

  14. @mariablake6509 on March 6, 2025 at 3:43 pm

    Both ineffective

  15. @Scarlette150 on March 6, 2025 at 3:43 pm

    With the Paula’s Choice, would you still use a vit C serum and peptide independently even though its included in it?

  16. @spicypaprika on March 6, 2025 at 3:44 pm

    Could you try Inde Wild PM 1% bakuchiol serum and review it? Thanks! Love the info backed by science 🙂

  17. @katee704 on March 6, 2025 at 3:45 pm

    what step should this be in the morning routine?

  18. @AutumnElaine on March 6, 2025 at 3:46 pm

    I know of 2 eye creams that indicate Bakuchiol Percentage, both 0.5% and available on A, at least in the US. They’re both K Beauty. I haven’t tried either of them yet.. but the reviews are very encouraging!

    First is the Meebak Cica and Bakuchiol eye cream. This one has Caffeine, so probably a good one to use in the morning!

    The other one is by HaruHaru, Wonder Black Rice Bakuchiol Eye Cream. Saw a kbeauty influencer rave about this one, but it has Niacinamide.. so if you’re sensitive, be careful please. I can’t imagine how uncomfortable that would be.

    I hope this helps someone!! Good luck on your skincare journey! ✨️ 🥰

    What is your everyday skin routine

  20. @jalvarez4774 on March 6, 2025 at 3:46 pm

    What can I use for brown spots…if I also have rosacea?

  21. @Sruthi_did on March 6, 2025 at 3:47 pm

    Girl I can’t focus on anything.. what’s your lip shade 😭😭😭 it’s damn gorgeous..

  22. @leahmarieisme on March 6, 2025 at 3:47 pm

    I just started using the Norwex Bakuchiol ❤️ it and learning more about it!

  23. @awesomeawesome3329 on March 6, 2025 at 3:47 pm

    You should use retinol if you love chemicals and want to develop cancer! Its as simple as that.

  24. @colleenspinner3361 on March 6, 2025 at 3:48 pm

    I am in Australia and have just discovered Tula skincare and am loving it
    Unfortunately Mecca only stock some of the products so I’m having trouble getting some that I would like to try.
    Tula doesn’t ship to Australia which is disappointing 😟

  25. @ralphkaizerleonescabatic5258 on March 6, 2025 at 3:50 pm

    My 1% retinol has 0.5 bakuchiol

  26. @TheShumoby on March 6, 2025 at 3:51 pm

    I use Differin resurfacing scar gel that has bakuchiol. My skin looks great. Tretinoin and retinol works great too.

  27. @সায়ানিরহমান on March 6, 2025 at 3:53 pm

    Do I use moisturizer before or after Bakuchiol?

  28. @xuxie8887 on March 6, 2025 at 3:54 pm

    Can you use bakuchiol while taking a low dose isotretinoin?

  29. @lucreasialuc on March 6, 2025 at 3:55 pm

    How to order

  30. @Kona0220 on March 6, 2025 at 3:55 pm

    Have you tried Peach and Lily?

  31. @intuitivetasha113 on March 6, 2025 at 3:56 pm

    Great review. Thank you. They are selling this for 400 for a tiny bottle .. so glad I just found your channel. Your on the ad. But now seeing ur channel I don’t think you were aware of this.

  32. @JoshandJamie on March 6, 2025 at 3:58 pm

    Great video!! I am nursing so no retinol for me right now. I did just start using the Dream Booster serum – tonight was the first time. So far, I really like it as an alternative for my PM routine.

  33. @Sruthi_did on March 6, 2025 at 3:59 pm

    Girl I can’t focus on anything.. what’s your lip shade 😭😭😭 it’s damn gorgeous..

  34. @Mbmxdtx on March 6, 2025 at 3:59 pm

    Hi. Awesome video! Would you know if Beauty By Earth Bakuchiol Face Serum is any good?

  35. @johndoe-si2sp on March 6, 2025 at 3:59 pm

    does this mean bakuchiol is not liver toxic like retinol/tretinoin? because i have trouble sleeping when using retinol/tretinoin.

  36. @ranakhader2816 on March 6, 2025 at 4:04 pm

    Hi I feel like it’s becoming confusing l. I just subscribed but you keep changing products.

  37. @sharonalbanese8084 on March 6, 2025 at 4:06 pm

    thanks for this excellent and very clear video. I would love to know what you think about taking supplements which have babcha/ bakuchiol with dandelion and inulin, which are apparently good for skin and gut health.

  38. @robertnelson5778 on March 6, 2025 at 4:06 pm

    I’m surprised I don’t see more reviews on Sheaterra Organicals products. I use the kigelia and bakuchiol serum and camels milk face cream with bakuchiol and aha etc. The quality and consistency seems superior to any others I have tried. All natural. If you try them I would love to know what you think.

  39. @d.6823 on March 6, 2025 at 4:06 pm

    is bakuchiol good with accutane?

  40. @aabish108 on March 6, 2025 at 4:07 pm

    Is bakuchiol effective for sunken eyes?

  41. @juanitasnelling7501 on March 6, 2025 at 4:08 pm

    What do you think of Fiera Bakuchiol eye cream

  42. @southernbellebeauty3547 on March 6, 2025 at 4:08 pm

    Avene Retrinal Serum states 1.5% in ingredients- is this a good amount

  43. @nanastirt8611 on March 6, 2025 at 4:10 pm

    Can I put bakuchiol under my eyes as they are very thin skin due to hack plastic surgery so they are dark circles

  44. @numetalfx on March 6, 2025 at 4:11 pm

    I got eczema all over my body because I apply tretinion and I didn’t wash my hand. I though it would be ok because I think there was nothing left in my hands, boy I was wrong big time.

  45. @DahHar117 on March 6, 2025 at 4:17 pm

    I have very sensitive skin and never used retinol because of that (I have rosacea). But, I recently came across a retinol for sensitive skin and saw no issues with it AT ALL. I was floored. I never hear any of the YouTube derms mention retinol for sensitive skin even exists! Apparently it is "encapsulated" for slow release so it doesn’t bombard you all at one time.

  46. @charleiGAlabat on March 6, 2025 at 4:18 pm

    pano po an pag gamet neto mam

  47. @analezaa6306 on March 6, 2025 at 4:18 pm

    With retinol products, how do you know if it’s the retinol product that’s irritating your skin, or something else in it?

  48. @DahHar117 on March 6, 2025 at 4:19 pm

    Dr. Dray says bakuchiol is not as good as retinol. It is REALLY confusing when the derms don’t agree.

  49. @susanfield2444 on March 6, 2025 at 4:20 pm

    Another amazing video
