Okay, you know what a big fan of Bakuchiol I am. After all, I named a Bakuchiol serum the Skincarma Product of the Year! If you didn’t catch that article, feel free to read it here.
As I’ve said 87 times before, Bakuchiol is a proven alternative to Retinol. And, if you’re not a Retinol lover (I’m not!), but want the anti-aging benefits of Retinol, then Bakuchiol is your knight in shining armor. Not only is it a legit replacement for a Retinol treatment, but if you’re accustomed to the potent Vitamin A extract, you know it’s best to use it on alternating nights, rather than daily. So, if you love your Retinol, consider a Bakuchiol serum on those off-nights.
And The Glow Maker’s 1% Bakuchiol Facial Night Oil is one of the best options available today!
Bakuchiol products come in many forms. There are pulpy serums like Herbivore’s Bakuchiol Retinol Alternative Serum. There are creams like the Bakuchiol moisturizer from one of my fave indie brands, The Inkey List. And, there are facial oils as with the BYBI Beauty Bakuchiol Booster and The Glow Maker’s 1% Bakuchiol Facial Night Oil. The 96% organic formula is an antioxidant powerhouse with Astaxanthin, Coenzyme Q10, Ginger Root Extract and Curcumin (Turmeric Root).
In addition to the antioxidant extracts, there are numerous non-fragrant plant oils that deeply nourish, moisturize, replenish and soothe the skin. Among them, the anti-aging stars Rosehip Seed Oil, Prickly Pear Seed Oil, and Grape Seed Oil.

All of those oils give it a super nourishing, rich and silky texture that makes the perfect final facial treatment to round off a PM regimen. It’s particularly valuable in the colder winter months here in New York. Instead of waking up looking dry and dehydrated, my complexion appears healthy, vibrant and not the least bit beaten down by the winter cold.
Reflecting back on my initial deep dive into Bakuchiol, were I to perform a fresh assessment of the Bakuchiol options on the market currently, I would consider The Glow Maker’s 1% Bakuchiol Facial Night Oil among the best available. And at just $30, it’s not just the real deal, but a good deal.
