Rebuild, strengthen, and restore your skin’s glow at the cellular level. The star ingredient, bakuchiol, promotes skin cell and collagen production—just like retinol, but with better tolerance and fewer side effects. Frankincense further boosts skin cell regeneration, while soothing inflammation and correcting dark spots.Â
This luxurious, regenerative serum also features a ceramide complex, which naturally occurs in the skin but declines with age. Give your skin the building blocks it needs to thrive by restoring its protective barrier, enhancing moisturization, and supporting skin repair.

Apply 3-5 drops to clean skin nightly, after toner or other water based serums. Gently massage into the face and neck until fully absorbed. Follow with moisturizer if needed.
Yes, all the ingredients in Chryso are pregnancy-safe. Bakuchiol is an excellent choice during pregnancy and breastfeeding, offering a safe alternative to retinol.
While Chryso is the richest of our three serums, it’s formulated with skin-identical lipid ceramides and compatible oils that absorb easily into the skin. When applied in the right amount for your skin type and given time to absorb, it won’t leave your skin feeling greasy or heavy.
It depends on your skin type. Drier skin may benefit from following up with a moisturizer, especially in winter. However, combination or oily skin types may find that Chryso provides enough hydration to serve as their moisturizing step.
Bakuchiol is often called a “natural” or “plant-based” retinol alternative because, like retinol, it stimulates collagen production, evens skin tone, and reduces the appearance of fine lines and wrinkles. However, unlike retinol, bakuchiol doesn’t photosensitize the skin, meaning it won’t make you more sensitive to the sun. It also avoids the dryness and irritation commonly associated with retinol. Additionally, bakuchiol is pregnancy-safe, making it a popular alternative for those seeking retinol-like benefits without the risks.
Yes, it's up to your personal preference. Some may find its rich texture too heavy for daytime use, though this can vary with the seasons. Drier skin types may enjoy wearing it both day and night, especially in colder months. Unlike retinol, bakuchiol is not photosensitizing, so it’s safe to wear in the sun. However, we always recommend wearing sunscreen regardless!
