Product Description
Bakuchi Oil in a refined, lighter-coloured format is a game-changing addition to our product lineup. Extracted from the seeds of the Psoralea Corylifolia plant and carefully refined for improved purity, stability, and consistency, this versatile oil is rich in essential fatty acids and valued for its skin-conditioning properties.
Bakuchi Oil naturally contains small amounts of Bakuchiol, a plant-derived active widely recognised as a natural alternative to retinol. It is this naturally occurring Bakuchiol that is associated with helping to support smoother, firmer, and more radiant-looking skin, while being gentler than traditional retinol.
The refining process creates a lighter colour and milder aroma, making this oil ideal for facial serums, creams, lotions, facial oils, and haircare formulations where a more neutral ingredient profile is preferred.

Frequently asked questions
What is refined bakuchi oil?
It is oil pressed from the seeds of Psoralea corylifolia, of Indian origin, and then refined (INCI: Psoralea Corylifolia Seed Oil / Psoralea Corylifolia Seed Extract). Refining gives a cleaner, milder oil that is easier to fragrance and colour.
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.
Refined or cold pressed bakuchi oil: which should I choose?
Choose refined for a lighter colour and milder scent in face creams, serums and light textures. Choose cold pressed for natural, unrefined positioning. Neither is for food use.
What pack sizes are available?
From 250ml up to 5kg, all priced online.
