SIMPLE USAGE:
For your morning and evening skin rituals. Apply after cleansing and application of any water-based serum you may be using (we recommend the 10% Niacinamide Serum). (If using acne prescribed medication-follow its instructions and follow with this serum.) Two to three pumps usually cover affected areas. Follow with moisturizer if desired, although this may not be needed for those with very oily skin. Allow Serum to "dry down" before applying any foundation makeup.
Other helpful tips:
- Because Bakuchiol does not cause photosensitivity (unlike Retinol), the Serum can be incorporated into your daytime skin ritual! Can be used both night and day. We always encourage everyone, regardless of skin type, to apply a quality sunscreen during the day.
- Many who tolerate using Retinol only 2-3 times evenings per week can use this serum in combination with Retinol or the "in-between" evenings (as it is gently effective!).

A God-Send!
This product has helped my skin even more than the regular creamy bakuchiol! My skin is glowing and has drastically reduced my acne and clogged pores. There’s no stinging, no bleaching my linens, no dry eyes(retinol/treyinoin side effect) it feels like my skin before puberty! I have had cystic acne despite going to dermatologists for years, they only have harsh treatments that harmfully impact other parts of body (gut:antibiotics) I will say I am also coupling it with other supplements to balance my hormones( wild yam root lotion). I will never stop using this though.

Impressive product
My skin was super dehydrated, oily, irritated, and acne-prone—and nothing seemed to help. This product feels like exactly what my skin was missing. After just two weeks, my skin looks so much healthier and more balanced. It absorbs beautifully, layers well over toner, and wears great under makeup. I’m so happy I found this!

Great retinol alternative
I was previously using a low dose topical tretinoin to manage acne, but needed something else for pregnancy. While it’s not keeping my acne at bay completely, it is helping some and feels wonderful on my skin. I highly value the clean ingredients and will be ordering again. So happy to find this brand!

We're happy you found us too! It's wonderful that Bakuchiol is a clean and great alternative during pregnancy.
best bakuchiol on the market!
I'm 25 years old (f) and I have combination skin on the oily side. I can't tolerate retinol and this serum has been a god sent holy grail for me! I notice the difference in my skin and the surface area. I have been using am/pm for about 3 weeks now will define a re-purchase product!
Char's Effective Skin Care
We're so delighted that the serum works well for your combination/oily skin! It's an under-served skin type we thought needed attention with special ingredients to help reduce sebum overproduction. It doesn't cause the irritation and flaking that Retinol can produce for those with more sensitive combination/ problem skin. It also addresses scarring, inflammation, and redness.
A skincare skeptic but I am hooked; loving Clarifying Bakuchiol Serum
Over 7 decades I have learned that most skincare products are big on marketing but ineffective on results. And I'm the kind of person who tries half-face comparisons of ridiculously expensive vs. budget eye creams for a month ... and guess which won? (The budget one was just as good, perhaps a smidge better.) I know that prescription retinoids work but have side effects, especially on aging. This skincare skeptic is now hooked on Char's Effectives Bakuchiol Serums. First, I knew from previous research and tests that these ingredients were safe for my reactive skin, and (2) this Clarifying Serum is a treat to use. I love the silky but not oily consistency and the natural herbal aroma. But best of all, my skin loves this formula and looks better, in just a matter of weeks. Even aging skin needs clarifying, and this serum does so gently but so effectively. This skincare skeptic now looks forward to trying other Char's Effectives products!
