Why this grade
Bakuchiol delivers retinol-like results without retinol's instability drama — but only if the raw material itself is clean. Our 98% HPLC-verified bakuchiol is CO2-extracted from traceable Psoralea corylifolia seed, with the isomer profile documented lot by lot.
Unlike fermentation-derived lots that vary with every batch of biomass, extraction from controlled seed inventory gives you a stable spec you can build a hero SKU on. Use at 0.5-1.5%; fully oil-soluble and cold-processable.
Key benefits
- 98% assay by HPLC, isomer profile documented per lot
- CO2 extraction — no solvent residues, no thermal stress on the molecule
- Fully oil-soluble, cold-processable, stable in anhydrous formats
- COSMOS-compliant natural origin, cultivation-traceable
Technical specification
Ingredient profile
Bakuchiol is the plant-based answer to retinol, without the irritation or the vitamin-A regulatory load. Ours is produced by solvent-free CO2 extraction of Psoralea corylifolia seed, leaving a zero-residual-solvent material with a documented cBak isomer profile on every lot COA.
The 98%-plus HPLC assay and narrow batch-to-batch band mean your finished formula does not drift between drums — a real concern when you are replacing retinol at parity use levels of 0.5–1%. Bakuchiol pairs cleanly with squalane in anhydrous systems and with gentle emulsifiers in leave-on creams.
It is vegan, COSMOS-compatible, and carries a full allergen and residual-solvent profile. Because oxidation is the main stability risk, we publish packaging and antioxidant guidance — the same guidance used by the formulators we surveyed.
