Gaia Body Care 5% Bakuchiol Oil Organic - Anti Aging, Anti Wrinkle, Reduces Fine Lines, Smooths Skin, Hydrates - Botanical Vegan - Natural Retinol Alternative Facial Oil (1oz, Rose)

Had been using a retinol product for about 4 months. Worked well, but I was concerned about sun sensitivity. I had read about bakuchiol oil and looked for products online. This one by Gaia has the fewest ingredients and a very light Damascus rose scent that fades quickly. I have been using it for about 4 weeks and the results are Fabulous! Better than retinol ever thought of being. My skin tone has evened out (had lots of brown sun spots that are fading). Has improved my skin texture on face, neck and chest. I'm especially impressed with what it has done for my sagging neck skin - almost all of the sagging is gone (I'm 71 years old). I use 4 drops on face, neck and chest every night, with coconut oil after. Daytime I use just 2 drops with a sunscreen moisturizer over it; 4 drops are too many for day wear and my makeup doesn't stay on very well. I cannot say enough good things about this product! Have bought 3 additional bottles to give to friends. Again, it's Fabulous!

New skin care product to my regimen. I use expensive products. Recently, learned about this product. It’s too soon to rate it since I’ve only used it 2 days.I use it under another facial product that I’ve used for years. Thus far, I have had no adverse reactions and my skin feels better already. For that reason, I’ll give it 5 stars. If I purchase another bottle, I’ll write a follow up review, because I’ll have more to share as far as if it helps with eye wrinkles or anything.

I think this serum is great. Its all I will be using now. I've order it several times. Helps with fine lines and texture.

I have acne prone and oily skin and this product did not break me out. Although it can be a bit shiny at times so I prefer to use it mostly at night, it does leave your skin hydrated and soft. Since there is a blend of different hydrating oils in this product, a little goes a long way.Definitely looking to see the long term benefits.

I love this product but the scented version was too much for me. I didn’t know they had unscented and was happy when I realized I could get it unscented. This is the natural version of Retin A. I’m very particular about using only natural ingredients on my body. I am an esthetician and rate this product as very effective for improving the texture and youthfulness of the skin. I know many don’t recommend using vitamin c serum with the chemical version of Retin A, but it doesn’t cause any irritation with this natural form for me. I use it under the Bakuchiol oil and it’s very effective night and day. I don’t use anything else except for a couple of drops of natural castor oil. But castor oil in a glass bottle, hexane free and organic is awesome. I think you will love it!

I love this oil. It goes on smooth and leaves my face feeling hydrated. The color is right, too, goldish brown. This is my fourth time ordering. I wish it were a little less expensive but I found if you wet your face with water a little before applying, it goes a longer way.

I've been using this product for a couple months and purchased because I develop a couple age spots after spending unsunscreened time in the glorious Hawaii sun at the end of mainland winter. I wanted a retinol alternative that wouldn't make my skin photosensitive. The serum smells and feels nice, and is in-line with other quality face oil blends I have purchased, but hasn't shown itself to have any anti-aging properties and so I probably won't buy it again. When winter returns and I'll go back to retinol which I have previously used and liked the effect it has on my skin's appearance.

I’m 32 and starting to focus more on my skincare routine. I want to keep it simple and not use a million products on my face. This Gaia Bakuchiol oil has been a blessing to say the least. If self care is something you enjoy, this is the perfect treat. I have been using it twice daily for nearly 3 weeks. The package recommends using 4 drops in the morning and 4 drops in the evening (it comes in a dark glass bottle with a topper that suspends the oil in droplets), but I use much more as I don’t mind oil based face products. It is so smooth when I apply it, just spreading it on my skin feels like a massage. During the application process, I become aware of the sweet aroma of roses. The oil keeps my face looking “tight/wrinkle-less” and I honestly look 10 years younger. I’ve had Botox in the past and this oil has given me similar results in terms of “tightness” in my face. It doesn’t feel like the oil tightens the skin but the appearance of the skin is smooth, as if it were tightened. The oil itself feels very soft. Once I finish this bottle, I’m buying it again. I hope my review helps describe this oil and the experience as much as possible.
