The Ultimate Anti-Aging Duo: Bakuchiol and Rosehip Oil

As we age, our skincare routine evolves as we search for ingredients that not only maintain our skin’s vibrancy but also address the specific signs of ageing we begin to notice.

If you’re a woman over 40, you know that finding products that deliver real results is key, especially when it comes to anti-ageing.

The good news? Two powerful ingredients, Bakuchiol and Rosehip Oil, have emerged as game-changers in the skincare world—and they work even better when paired together.

These two ingredients are not only effective, but they’re also gentle on the skin, making them perfect for mature skin that can sometimes be sensitive to harsher treatments.

Let's dive into why Bakuchiol and Rosehip Oil deserve a place in your skincare routine.

Bakuchiol: A Gentle, Plant-Based Retinol Alternative

For years, retinol has been touted as the holy grail for fighting fine lines and wrinkles, boosting collagen production, and improving skin texture. But it’s not always the best fit for everyone—especially those with sensitive skin. 

Retinol can cause irritation, dryness, and redness, which can be a real concern for more mature skin. That's where Bakuchiol comes in.

Bakuchiol is a plant-based alternative to retinol that provides the same anti-aging benefits without the harsh side effects.

It’s found in our Rose Youth Elixir, and it’s derived from the seeds of the Psoralea corylifolia plant. What makes Bakuchiol so powerful is its ability to stimulate collagen production, increase cell turnover, and promote smoother, more youthful skin—all while being much gentler than retinol.

Bakuchiol also helps with uneven skin tone, fine lines, and wrinkles, providing visible results without causing irritation.

Unlike retinol, which often needs to be gradually introduced to avoid redness or peeling, Bakuchiol can be used daily and is suitable for all skin types—even those with sensitive skin. That makes it an ideal choice for women looking to incorporate anti-aging ingredients into their routine without the hassle of adjusting to stronger products.

Rosehip Oil: A Miracle Worker for Hydration and Skin Renewal

When you’re over 40, maintaining skin hydration becomes even more important. As our skin loses moisture with age, it can start to appear dull and dry, contributing to the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. 

Enter Rosehip Oil—a powerhouse ingredient that’s packed with essential fatty acids, antioxidants, and vitamins A and C.

Our Prebiotic Moisturising Cream is enriched with Rosehip Oil, which works wonders for restoring skin’s hydration and elasticity. This luxurious oil penetrates deeply into the skin, providing intense moisture while helping to protect the skin’s natural barrier.

Rosehip Oil also encourages skin renewal and helps even out skin tone, making it a fantastic choice for those who deal with hyperpigmentation or dark spots.

The antioxidants in Rosehip Oil fight free radicals, protecting your skin from environmental damage and helping to prevent premature aging. Its high levels of vitamin A promote cell turnover, improving the texture and appearance of the skin.

This makes Rosehip Oil a fantastic addition to your skincare routine, as it provides both deep hydration and skin rejuvenation—two essential things that aging skin needs.

Why Bakuchiol and Rosehip Oil Make the Perfect Pair

Both Bakuchiol and Rosehip Oil are incredible on their own, but when combined, they work even better. Bakuchiol targets the visible signs of aging by boosting collagen and speeding up cell turnover, while Rosehip Oil replenishes and nourishes the skin, locking in moisture and improving its overall health.

Together, these two ingredients create the perfect balance—giving you smoother, firmer, and more radiant skin.

Incorporating both into your daily routine ensures that you’re addressing multiple aspects of ageing skin: reducing wrinkles, improving texture, brightening dullness, and hydrating from within. The result? Skin that feels plump, soft, and rejuvenated with a healthy, youthful glow.

For the best results, we recommend starting with a gentle cleanser such as our Hydrating Cleanser with 100% rose water, followed by the Rose Youth Elixir with Bakuchiol to promote collagen production and encourage cell turnover.

Finish your routine with the Prebiotic Moisturising Cream, packed with Rosehip Oil, to hydrate, brighten, and keep your skin nourished throughout the day.

This powerhouse combination will leave your skin feeling refreshed, rejuvenated, and more confident than ever.
