Skin Chemists Youth Series Retinol & Bakuchiol Facial Serum 30ml is a lightweight anti-ageing serum from the UK skincare house. Built around a dual approach of retinol and bakuchiol — bakuchiol being a natural alternative to retinol — and supported by sodium hyaluronate, it's designed to support smoother, more refined and youthful-looking skin.

Key benefits

• Dual-active formula combining retinol and bakuchiol.
• Sodium hyaluronate (hyaluronic acid) for plumping, hydrating support.
• Allantoin and aloe vera included for soothing, calming properties.
• Lightweight serum texture that absorbs quickly and layers easily under moisturiser.

Key ingredients

• Retinol: a pure form of vitamin A, used to support smoother, more refined skin.
• Bakuchiol: a natural alternative to retinol, used alongside it to support a more youthful-looking complexion.
• Sodium hyaluronate (hyaluronic acid): humectant that draws and binds water in the upper layers of the skin.
• Allantoin: traditionally included for its soothing properties.
• Aloe barbadensis (aloe vera) leaf juice powder: calming and hydrating.

Who it's for

Anyone wanting to add a focused retinol-and-bakuchiol serum to their evening routine — particularly suited to mature, fatigued or early-ageing skin looking for a smoother, more refined finish.

How to use

1. Cleanse and tone the skin in the evening.
2. Dispense a few drops of the serum onto the palm of the hand.
3. Massage onto face and neck, avoiding the eye area.
4. Allow to absorb fully before applying your usual moisturiser.
5. Always use a daily SPF in the morning when using retinol.
6. Start two or three times a week and gradually build to nightly use as your skin acclimatises.
