PinkPeach review for Bakuchiol Timeless Bloom Revitalizing Serum

I received this product for free from Picky and PURITO in exchange for my honest review. The Purito Bakuchiol Serum - promoted as a serum that helps to address the early signs of aging in a fast-absorbing, viscous serum infused with 1% Bakuchiol. What is Bakuchiol? It’s an extract derived from the leaves and seeds of the Babchi plant. An asian herb that is used to heal, calm and soothe your skin due its anti-inflammatory and antibacterial properties. It’s retinol’s gentler, less irritating sister for those with sensitive skin and is generally safe for all skin types. Purito has paired bakuchiol with peptide as the main ingredients, aimed at refining pores, improving firmness and the appearance of fine lines and texture. 💜 Herb extracts of rosemary, oregano, lavender & thyme: improve skin elasticity 💜 Betaine: preventing moisture loss and provide a protective film to external irritants 💜 Allantoin: to calm sensitive skin During the time I have used it, I noticed a difference in the softness of my skin and when used in the evenings before bed, I would wake with soft and hydrated skin that felt bouncy. The appearance of my pores mostly stayed the same, and I can’t comment on fine lines (still young!). It’s easy enough to use with the dropper - just pat onto your skin after toner, and can be used day and night. Just ensure you apply sunscreen during the day. Another aspect is the packaging - Purito put in thought for a sustainable process in producing this product. Sourcing sustainable an upcycled ingredients, creating a 90% recycled glass bottle, and a 100% recycled paper packaging. It’s definitely a good alternative to retinol if you are looking into trying a gentler anti-aging product.
