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