Babchi, the mature fruit of this leguminous plant, is truly a treasure of nature. Its main chemical components include coumarins, terpenols, and flavonoids, etc. Bakuchiol is a kind of isoprenoid alcohol, with particularly high content in the seeds. As early as several years ago, Bakuchiol had become very popular overseas and was included in the list of cosmetic raw materials.
The functions of Bakuchiol:
Anti-aging: Safflower phenolic compounds can enhance the activity of skin fibroblasts, reduce the breakdown of skin collagen, and promote the synthesis of collagen, thereby achieving the effect of anti-aging.
Antioxidant: As a more potent fat-soluble antioxidant than vitamin E, Bakuchiol can effectively protect sebum from oxidation and prevent excessive keratinization of hair follicles.
Skin Whitening: The inhibitory effect of Bakuchiol on tyrosinase is more significant than that of arbutin, and it has the potential to become a natural inhibitor of tyrosinase.
Anti-inflammatory: The inflammatory response requires the participation of inflammatory factors and protein kinases. And Bakuchiol can reduce the release of inflammatory mediators, thereby exerting an anti-inflammatory effect.
The advantanges of Bakuchiol:
No side effects: After use, phenomena such as peeling and stinging occur less frequently. Bakuchiol has a high acceptance rate among people with sensitive skin.
Good skin compatibility: Bakuchiol is gentle and does not harm the skin. There is no need to establish a tolerance process.
Non-photosensitive: Bakuchiol can be used throughout the day.
Friendly to oily and acne-prone skin: The upstream can inhibit the phosphorylation level of kinases, and the downstream can also reduce the release of inflammatory mediators.
Overall, Bakuchiol not only has comprehensive effects but also has mild ingredients, making it suitable for people with all skin types to use. If you are seeking the star ingredient for your formulas, welcome to contact us by sales@yrspec.com.
