"Best in class ingredients" –Forbes

OVERVIEW:

The Retinal Bakuchiol Serum by Dr. Devgan Scientific Beauty is a dual-active resurfacing formulation designed to improve epidermal texture, firmness, and overall skin clarity. It combines retinaldehyde, a vitamin A derivative known to support cellular turnover and collagen remodeling, with bakuchiol, a botanical retinoid-like compound that provides complementary anti-aging activity with improved tolerability in sensitive skin types.

Hyaluronic acid, panthenol (vitamin B5), and vitamin E function as hydrating and barrier-supportive agents, helping to maintain moisture balance and mitigate potential irritation associated with retinoid use. The formulation is designed to enhance skin smoothness, refine texture irregularities, and improve the appearance of fine lines while supporting barrier resilience.

KEY INGREDIENTS:

RETINAL BAKUCHIOL SERUM:

• 0.05% or 0.10% Retinal: a stabilized form of Vitamin A that accelerates skin renewal, targeting wrinkles, uneven skin tone, and loss of elasticity. Available in two strengths.
• 2% Bakuchiol: a plant-based retinol alternative that offers similar anti-aging benefits, helping to reduce fine lines and improve firmness without irritation.
• 2% Retinol: a complementary form of Vitamin A that works alongside retinal to deliver both immediate and sustained skin-renewing benefits. While retinal offers accelerated results, retinol provides a gentler, steady approach to improving skin texture, reducing fine lines, and enhancing tone. Together, they provide a balanced, multi-phase strategy for optimal anti-aging results.
• Hyaluronic Acid: a powerful humectant that attracts and retains moisture, ensuring deep hydration and a plump appearance.
• Vitamin B5: known for its soothing and hydrating properties, Vitamin B5 enhances moisture retention and improves skin texture.
• Vitamin E: an antioxidant that protects skin from free radicals, enhancing resilience and supporting skin’s natural repair process.

RETINOL + BAKUCHIOL SERUM (original formulation):

• Retinol: an essential anti-aging ingredient.
• Bakuchiol: a plant-based retinol alternative that offers similar anti-aging benefits, helping to reduce fine lines and improve firmness without irritation.

BENEFITS:

• Anti-Aging and Firming: Retinal and bakuchiol work together to reduce the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles, enhancing skin firmness and elasticity.
• Brightens and Evens Tone: Helps diminish hyperpigmentation and promotes a clearer, more balanced complexion.
• Deep Hydration: Hyaluronic acid and Vitamin B5 provide lasting hydration, plumping and revitalizing the skin.
• Skin Barrier Support: Vitamin E and Vitamin B5 nourish and strengthen the skin barrier, protecting against environmental stressors.
  

DIRECTIONS & TIPS:

Dispense 3-4 drops and massage onto clean skin with fingertips in the evening. Pair with Advanced Recovery Cream, Hyaluronic Serum, and Vitamin CBE Ferulic Serum for faster results. Those with sensitive skin may prefer to begin with every other day or every third day usage, with gradual escalation to daily use as tolerated. Replace cap tightly

Consistent daily use is needed to see and maintain desired results.
Wear a daily sunscreen SPF 30 or higher while using this product.

NOT recommended during pregnancy or breastfeeding.

For sensitive skin, consider starting with every other day or every third day and gradually escalating as tolerated.

My revolutionary combination of retinol and bakuchiol helps to accomplish 4 important things: reduces fine lines and wrinkles, improves hyperpigmentation and melasa, shrinks pores, and decreases blemishes. This serum is very strong so start with the 2.5 concentration at first and then gradually escalate to 5 and 10. 

• Retinols can sometimes cause a "purge" of sebum a few days to a few weeks after use -- this is normal
• The skin around the eyes and on the neck can be more sensitive to retinols
• Retinols are not recommended for use in pregnancy or nursing
• Retinol can increase sun sensitivity so I recommend following use with my SPF 44 BB Cream
