The 2-Phase Bakuchiol Oil Serum & Niacinamid 30 ml

The 2-Phase Bakuchiol Oil Serum with Niacinamide is a unique 2-phase hybrid product that combines the benefits of oil and serum, visibly balancing and smoothing your skin with 1% bakuchiol and 5% niacinamide.

This active-rich slow-aging oil serum provides sensitive, mature, dry and blemish-prone skin with rich, hydrating care. It combines moisturizing ingredients such as aloe vera juice, ceramides and hyaluronic acid with nourishing oils such as squalane and plum kernel oil, as well as the key ingredients bakuchiol and niacinamide.

It also contains powerful antioxidants and adaptogens such as butterfly ginger, organic saffron and Q10, which protect and regenerate the skin. These carefully selected components provide smoother, softer skin and can help minimize the appearance of pores.

Key active ingredients

• Bakuchiol (1%) is a plant-based slow-aging active ingredient that makes the skin texture appear smoother and more even, and is particularly interesting for fine lines, loss of firmness and uneven pigmentation. Clinical studies show improvements in wrinkles and hyperpigmentation while maintaining good skin tolerability. Bakuchiol is therefore also suitable for sensitive skin seeking an effective alternative to classic retinoids.
• Niacinamide (5%) strengthens the natural skin barrier, supports the formation of important skin lipids and helps the skin retain moisture more effectively. At the same time, vitamin B3 can visibly even out an uneven skin tone, redness and an uneven-looking skin texture. The combination of 5% niacinamide and bakuchiol makes the serum particularly interesting for mature skin as well as combination or blemish-prone skin.
• Hyaluronic acid, aloe vera & glycerin form the moisturizing phase of the serum. They bind water in the upper layer of the skin, reduce feelings of dryness and tightness, and make the skin appear plumper and smoother. Skin lacking moisture in particular benefits from the formula supplying moisture while also helping to retain it through the lipids it contains.
• Ceramide NP are skin-identical lipids and important building blocks of an intact skin barrier. They help stabilize the spaces between the corneocytes and reduce excessive moisture loss. In combination with niacinamide, they are particularly suitable for dry, sensitive or barrier-compromised skin.
• Squalane & plum kernel oil form the smooth oil phase. Squalane is a lightweight, skin-compatible lipid that complements the natural protective film and reduces moisture loss. Plum kernel oil is rich in oleic and linoleic acid as well as antioxidant compounds, leaving the skin soft and supple – without making the serum feel unnecessarily heavy.
• Coenzyme Q10, saffron & vitamin E complement the care with antioxidant properties. Q10 helps neutralize free radicals and supports the skin against environmentally induced oxidative stress. Saffron provides polyphenols and other antioxidant plant compounds, while vitamin E additionally protects the skin's lipids. The combination supports a complexion that looks fresher, more even and more resilient.

How to use

• The 2-Phase Bakuchiol Oil Serum can be used in the morning and/or evening. Ruhi recommends using it in the morning, as its potent adaptogens and antioxidants protect against environmental damage.
• First cleanse your skin thoroughly.
• Shake the serum so that the two phases combine.  
• Now apply 3-4 drops of the oil serum to your skin and gently massage it in.

FAQ

Is the 2-Phase Bakuchiol Oil Serum also suitable for sensitive skin?

Yes! The 2-Phase Bakuchiol Oil Serum is very suitable for sensitive skin. Unlike synthetic retinol, which can cause redness and skin flaking at high concentrations, the natural plant extract bakuchiol is very well tolerated even at high and effective concentrations, such as the 1% used in the serum. The relatively high concentration of 5% niacinamide is also generally very well tolerated by the skin.

In addition, like all ruhi skincare products, the 2-Phase Bakuchiol Oil Serum is formulated gently and contains no alcohol, fragrances, essential oils or other potentially irritating ingredients. At the same time, these ingredients have been shown to strengthen the skin barrier.

Can I also use the 2-Phase Bakuchiol Oil Serum during the day?

Yes! Ruhi even recommends using it in the morning, as the oil serum's potent adaptogens and antioxidants protect against environmental damage.

The 2-Phase Bakuchiol Oil Serum can easily be used during the day, because unlike synthetic retinol, it does not make the skin sensitive to light.

What is the difference between the 2-Phase Bakuchiol Oil Serum and the Bakuchiol Oil Serum? 

Although both serums contain the slow-aging hero ingredient bakuchiol, they are by no means the same. Quite the opposite: they complement each other wonderfully. Thanks to its innovative 2-phase formula, the 2-Phase Bakuchiol Oil Serum not only nourishes the skin intensively but also hydrates it at the same time. Thanks to moisturizing ingredients such as organic aloe vera juice and hyaluronic acid (1%), the serum also has a lighter texture that is perfect for the warmer months.

Protective antioxidants such as saffron and butterfly ginger make it ideal for daytime use. The richer Bakuchiol Oil Serum can be used in the evening as a supplement. The powerful combination of 1% bakuchiol and 5% niacinamide also effectively combats wrinkles and lines, reduces the appearance of pores and makes the 2-Phase Bakuchiol Serum the perfect slow-aging product.
