Super Bakuchiol Serum Reviews

4 Rating 8 Reviews
Read Victoria Health Reviews


Bakuchiol Serum by DoSe contains Sytenol® A, a patented Bakuchiol oil which is a retinol alternative that is natural, non-irritating, and effective. Bakuchiol Serum is the anti-ageing skincare ingredient with benefits which include enhancing collagen production and preventing or softening fine lines and wrinkles.
Bakuchiol, also known as Bakuchi Oil or Babchi, is a plant-derived, natural alternative to retinol derived from the seeds of the Psoralea Corylifolia plant. Bakuchiol benefits skin due to its ability to enhance collagen production, increase cell turnover and provide antioxidant protection, giving you softer, smoother, plumper skin with fewer lines and wrinkles just like retinol without inflammation.
Bakuchiol benefits skin with its ability to calm spots and redness-prone skin, helping to reduce the appearance of pigmentation problems, photo-damage, and seal in hydration. Bakuchiol oil does not cause peeling, dryness or increased sun sensitivity associated with retinol use.
Unlike other Bakuchiol products, Bakuchiol Face serum contains Sytenol® A, a Bakuchiol Oil that represents the gold standard and is REACH registered through extensive safety testing and performance. This high purity and quality oil has been the subject of various clinical studies. DoSe Bakuchiol Serum (unlike most other Bakuchiol or Babchi Oils) contains 100% well-defined 1% Bakuchiol Oil without any photosensitisers.

Bakuchiol - A natural, retinol alternative to help protect the skin against signs of ageing and blemishes while stimulating the production of collagen

What is an active ingredient and what does it mean?An "active ingredient" refers to the specific component or substance within a product that provides a therapeutic or beneficial effect on the skin. Active ingredients are typically responsible for targeting and addressing specific skin concerns.

Does DoSe by VH replace Garden of Wisdom?DoSe by VH is a natural evolution of Garden of Wisdom and we are confident that the DoSe by VH products will exceed your expectations, delivering a heightened level of quality and efficacy.  The DoSe serums and oils have been meticulously formulated, and in some cases reformulated by Shabir Daya MRPharmS, our co-founder who originally formulated GOW.  While some formulations share the same INCI, we searched for and incorporated the optimal iterations of each, guaranteeing an enhanced quality.  Not all ingredients are created equally and developments in formulations can change.  It gave us the opportunity to better our offer for our customers who have previously loved GOW.  We listened to the feedback from our customers regarding GOW and the bottles are now glass, which means they are also waterproof for the bathroom.  We believe in constant improvement and staying at the forefront of skincare innovation.

Light but deeply moisturising serum that I put on at night to under a heavier oil or thicker moisturiser depending on my skins needs. Use it all over my neck and décolletage and even near my eyes with no irritation.

Lovely serum and I really like using a retinol alternative in the Summer. I have only been using it for a couple of weeks and it seems to be performing as well as my usual retinol. 4 stars out of 5 because it doesn’t smell great.

Thank you for sharing your feedback. We really appreciate it - VH
I bought this as an alternative to another bakuchiol which was mixed with Melon seed oil. I really like this product, I have very sensitive skin and always have to patch test. I use one pump on my face and another for my neck at night, I have had no issues and am pleased to find another product that doesn’t cause a reaction.

I've been using this serum for a couple of years now and love it. I have super sensitive eyes and am allergic to most products, but have no reaction to this. I use it morning and night and love the fact that it soaks into my skin and makes it feel soft.

I am afraid that I had a reaction to this serum and won't be able to continue using it.I developed a bumpy rash under my skin,thankfully it cleared quickly once I stopped using it. It is the first time I have had any complaint about any purchase from VH...I will continue to buy products from them.

Thank you for taking the time to share your review. Like any skincare ingredient, some people may be sensitive or allergic to Bakuchiol, leading to skin reactions, although such reactions are generally rare. Bakuchiol is a natural compound derived from the seeds and leaves of the Psoralea corylifolia plant. It's often used in skincare products as a gentler alternative to retinol, with similar benefits such as anti-aging properties. It is important to note that some individuals may experience a temporary “skin purge” when trying a new skincare product, characterised by initial worsening of certain skin conditions or emergence of new blemishes. This is a normal response as the product accelerates skin renewal, typically lasting a few weeks before improvement is seen. It may be worth trying it again, slowly and not ruling out as it’s a lovely ingredient that has many great benefits. If you still do not get on with the product, please do contact customer care directly. Thank you for your kind words about our other products and for being so loyal over the years. - VH
