2. Bakuchiol + Astaxanthin Oil For Cell Renewal
This oil is a very thin oil and it absorbs quickly - unlike castor oil which is thick.
It stimulates cell turnover in the deeper layers of the skin (the replacement of old, damaged skin cells with new ones).
Good cell turnover leads to better skin texture, fewer wrinkles and more even toned skin. But, it takes a few weeks for this mechanism to get rolling.
Because this works in the deeper layers of the skin, it takes about 4-6 weeks of regular use to see full results - firmer skin, better texture, softened fine lines and lightened dark spots.
If you're familar with retinol, bakuchiol oil is a natural retinol alternative - with the cell turnover benefit, but without the redness, peeling and irritation that comes with it.
Astaxanthin is a strong antioxidant - estimated to be 6000x stronger than Vitamin C and you're probably already aware of how great vitamin C is for dark spots!
Once I started adding this to my routine I could see fine lines, especially around my eyes, start to soften and smooth out.
