Overview
A skincare routine that avoids retinol is where this cream fits, using bakuchiol, a plant-based alternative, as the key ingredient. It is vegan, cruelty free and free of GMOs, gluten and parabens, with an apricot scent.
A retinol alternative that is vegan and natural gives shoppers who avoid retinol a way to target lines and tone. The limitation is that bakuchiol is a different ingredient with its own pace, and the cream is scented.
Who it's for
Someone who wants lines and uneven tone addressed without retinol, and likes vegan formulas, will see the aim at once. People who want actual retinol results, or who avoid scent, should look at other creams.

Performance notes
Bakuchiol is a plant compound marketed as a retinol alternative, and it works more gently, so changes in tone and lines appear slowly over weeks. A cream base adds moisture for dry skin. The listing gives no strength or timing.
