Description

Serum with 2% Bakuchiol | Natural and Vegan Pro-Retinol | COSMOS NATURAL Certification

We formulated this serum with Bakuchiol to support the skin’s gradual renewal. Its 2% concentration promotes orderly cell turnover, improves skin texture, and helps restore elasticity, firmness, and evenness without using retinoids or causing retinization. Bakuchiol is known as Bio-Retinol or plant-based retinol because it activates cellular mechanisms similar to those of retinol; however, it is a different molecule—it is not derived from vitamin A nor does it convert to retinoic acid. Its effect on wrinkles is gradual and is related to skin renewal and the support of collagen synthesis.
  • 2% Bakuchiol for skin renewal and wrinkle reduction: It acts on the mechanisms involved in cell renewal and collagen synthesis, progressively improving the appearance of wrinkles, elasticity, and firmness.
  • A high-tolerance alternative to retinol: it addresses the main signs of aging without causing the adaptation process, intense flaking, or sensitivity typically associated with retinoids.
  • A more even and radiant complexion: Bakuchiol and botanical antioxidants help improve uneven skin tone and prevent the darkening of blemishes caused by oxidative stress.
  • Hydration, soothing, and a plumping effect: Hyaluronic Acid retains moisture and smooths out dehydration lines, while CICA helps reduce tightness, redness, and discomfort.
  • No retinoids during pregnancy and breastfeeding: The formula does not contain retinol, retinal, or other vitamin A derivatives. It can be used as a cosmetic alternative during these periods, but you should always review the full formula with your healthcare professional to address any specific circumstances.
  • Lightweight, fast-absorbing texture, free of comedogenic ingredients: it easily fits into your morning and evening routine, before applying your moisturizer.
  • Two regimens depending on your needs: a 7-day intensive regimen for concentrated results, or a 28-day regimen using 7 ampoules every 7 days as a maintenance serum to complement a consistent, long-term skincare routine.
  • Dermatologically tested on sensitive skin, formulated with minimal allergens in accordance with Regulation (EC) No. 1223/2009.
  • Certified natural cosmetics: a formula containing 99% naturally derived ingredients, certified by Ecocert Greenlife under the COSMOS NATURAL standard, cruelty-free, and vegan.

    Estoy encantada con las ampollas como un extra en la rutina diaria. En concreto las de pro-retinol (después de la limpieza nocturna) las siento como un aporte nutritivo extra, antes de aplicarme el aceite Anti-aging Efecto Total.

Is this "Pro-Retinol" booster serum right for you?

Choose Pro-Retinol if you want to renew your skin, restore elasticity, and smooth out wrinkles, but your skin doesn’t tolerate retinoids well. Its Bakuchiol activates cellular mechanisms related to skin renewal and collagen synthesis without being retinol, converting to retinoic acid, or requiring a retinization process.

To support this renewal, it combines hyaluronic acid and CICA with an antioxidant complex of red grape, goji berries, and ginkgo biloba. Together, they maintain hydration, soothe the skin, and help protect collagen from oxidative stress. A highly tolerable alternative that can be used year-round, day or night, and during pregnancy.

Pro-Retinol: Rediscover Your Skin with Bakuchiol

If you love the benefits of retinol but don’t want to deal with irritation and flaking, this bakuchiol serum is just what you’ve been looking for. This botanical active ingredient is known as bio-retinol, natural retinol, or vegan retinol. The reason? Clinical studies published in the British Journal of Dermatology have shown that it offers anti-aging results comparable to those of retinol, but with a much better skin tolerance profile. It acts at the cellular level to increase collagen synthesis and elastin renewal—the two key proteins responsible for maintaining the skin’s structure and youthful appearance.

Bakuchiol: What It Is and What It Does

With so many benefits, you might be wondering exactly what Bakuchiol is and why it works this way. It is Babchi oil, a highly purified active ingredient extracted from the seeds of the Psoralea corylifolia plant. If we analyze it from a molecular standpoint, we find that it is a molecule surprisingly similar to retinol and that it acts on the same cellular receptors as traditional retinol. Because it is very similar, but not identical, it does not trigger the dreaded inflammatory processes. That’s why, by using pure bakuchiol, our vegan alternative becomes the ultimate anti-aging serum. In short, this plant-based retinol accelerates cell renewal in a completely biocompatible and safe way.

Synergies with Natural Retinol

The reason this natural retinol serum is so much more effective is that our formulas go beyond the benefits of bakuchiol alone. Our serum provides a more comprehensive effect on skin care, elasticity, firmness, and tone thanks to:
  • Low-molecular-weight hyaluronic acid: hydrates the deeper layers
  • An antioxidant botanical blend of acai, red grapevine, and ginkgo biloba that protects the skin from oxidative stress and free radicals

Use it during pregnancy

Traditional retinol, with its retinization process and accelerated skin renewal, is generally not recommended during pregnancy and breastfeeding. That’s why this natural alternative is an excellent choice to include in your routine: it doesn’t irritate the skin and has an impeccable toxicological profile. With a 100% natural, disruptor-free formula, you can continue your anti-wrinkle and skin-renewing routine during these very special months. In addition, it can be used both day and night, as it is a serum designed to continue this treatment aimed at improving skin firmness and elasticity by redensifying the internal matrix that supports the facial skin.

Directions for Use

Remember: Your skin must be clean before you begin so that the hyaluronic acid and active ingredients can penetrate properly.

1. Open the ampoule:Use the break line along the white line.

2. Choose the amount: Use one full ampoule per day if you’re doing the 7-day (or up to 14-day) intensive treatment, or use a smaller amount—like a daily serum—if you prefer to use it for maintenance.

3. Let it work: Wait a few minutes until your skin has fully absorbed it, and then continue with your skincare routine.

4. Finish with your moisturizer: Choose a barrier cream for deeper hydration or a moisturizer with SPF for daytime hydration.

You can use your ampoules day and night, and even combine different treatments to create your own personalized Skin Longevity routine.

Frequently Asked Questions

What moisturizer can I use with my ampoules?

+-

We’ve created three barrier creams that help you lock in the benefits of your ampoules: Balance is light and fluid, ideal for younger skin or if you’re looking for water-based hydration; Universal offers a blend of lipids and water that’s perfect for normal skin and all skin types; and Supreme nourishes and hydrates even the most dehydrated skin, perfect for mature skin seeking to seal in their treatment with oil-rich hydration.

What is Bakuchiol, and what is it used for?

+-

Bakuchiol is an active ingredient that is 100% plant-based. It is known as BioRetinol because it is the natural alternative to retinol, or “vegan retinol. “

From a molecular perspective, we see that it is composed of a molecule similar to retinol. This molecule stimulates the genes that address deep wrinkles and prevent their formation. This promotes collagen synthesis and elastin renewal. Visible signs of aging, such as wrinkles, are reduced (by about 20% in the first few weeks). It also reduces the loss of elasticity and firmness. In natural and vegan cosmetics, we really like this active ingredient because it doesn’t have the side effects of synthetic retinol. And it delivers visible results, even on sensitive skin.

 

 

Which is better: Bakuchiol or Retinol?

+-

Both Bakuchiol and Retinol are effective for anti-aging, improving skin elasticity and reducing wrinkles.

If you have delicate skin or prefer more respectful formulas, Bakuchiol is better for those who are looking for a natural option, have sensitive skin, or if you want to avoid the side effects of retinol such as dryness and redness. In other words, it offers comparable results with far superior skin tolerance.

What not to mix with Bakuchiol?

+-

One of the great advantages of Bakuchiol is its high compatibility. Unlike retinol, which can interact with other actives, Bakuchiol can safely be used in the same routine with ingredients such as Vitamin C, hyaluronic acid and other exfoliants such as AHA or BHA.

Bakuchiol and Pregnancy: The Answer You Were Looking For

+-

One of the most frequently asked questions is about the use of Bakuchiol in pregnancy. Experts in the dermatological and cosmetic community agree that Bakuchiol is a safe alternative to retinol during pregnancy and lactation. This is because, despite its similarity, the differences in chemical structure mean that it offers analogous benefits, without the same potential risks.

If you have any doubts, from DHYVANA we always recommend that you consult your doctor or dermatologist.

How long should I use my ampoules?

+-

Start with an intensive 7-day treatment using 7 ampoules. This way, you’ll see visible results in no time.

After this first week, the best way to maintain, enhance, and prolong your results is to continue your treatment by using the contents of <1 ml from your ampoules every day.

You can use them for as long as you like, but we recommend using them for at least 4 weeks.
