Frequently asked questions
Can I use Bakuchiol and Sunscreen together?
Yes, and they work even better together. Bakuchiol works best, and stays safe, only if your skin is protected from UV. Without daily sunscreen, sun damage undoes its results.
Which goes first, Bakuchiol or Sunscreen?
Apply Bakuchiol first, then Sunscreen. The general rule is thinnest to thickest texture, and lowest pH first.
Should I use Bakuchiol in the morning or at night?
Bakuchiol: works morning or night. Use twice daily. It is stable in sunlight, so a morning application is fine.
Should I use Sunscreen in the morning or at night?
Sunscreen: best in the morning. Use two finger-lengths for face and neck as the last morning step, every day, including indoors near windows. Reapply every 2–3 hours outdoors.
Is Bakuchiol with Sunscreen safe during pregnancy?
Neither is a known risk in normal cosmetic amounts, but guidance varies for Bakuchiol. Check with your doctor.
