Product Description
Experience the benefits of Bakuchi Oil with this cold-pressed, unrefined variant. Derived from the seeds of the Psoralea Corylifolia plant, this nutrient-rich oil naturally contains small amounts of Bakuchiol, the active compound widely recognised as a natural alternative to retinol.
Rich in essential fatty acids and antioxidants, Bakuchi Oil helps to nourish and rejuvenate the skin while promoting a smoother, more youthful-looking complexion without the sensitivity often associated with traditional retinol. As an unrefined oil, it retains its characteristic amber/brown colour and sweet, nutty aroma.
Free from synthetic additives, this oil retains the natural profile of the plant, including compounds such as psoralen and isopsoralen, and is traditionally used to care for dry skin.

Frequently asked questions
What is cold pressed bakuchi oil?
It is the oil pressed from the seeds of Psoralea corylifolia, a legume native to India (INCI: Psoralea Corylifolia Seed Oil / Psoralea Corylifolia Seed Extract). This grade is unrefined, so it keeps the seed's natural colour and earthy, herbal aroma.
Is bakuchi oil the same as bakuchiol?
No. Bakuchi oil is the whole oil pressed from Psoralea corylifolia seeds, of which bakuchiol is one natural constituent; isolated bakuchiol is a separate, purified ingredient. Both are used in plant-based skincare as alternatives to retinol-style positioning.
Cold pressed or refined bakuchi oil: which should I choose?
Choose cold pressed for natural, unrefined positioning where a stronger colour and scent are acceptable. Choose the refined grade for a lighter, milder base in face creams and serums. Neither is for food use.
What pack sizes are available?
From 100ml up to a 25kg drum, all priced online. For regular volumes, ask us for a bulk quote.
