The Future of Retinol Alternatives
Retinol has long been the benchmark in anti-aging skincare. It smooths lines and accelerates cell turnover—but it can also cause irritation, redness, and peeling. Bakuchiol, a phytoactive extract from the Psoralea corylifolia plant, offers comparable results with none of the drawbacks.
For those who want visible renewal without compromising barrier health, VAHNAI’s Chiang Mai Bakuchiol Natural Retinol Alternative Serum represents a new standard in performance and tolerance.
About the Chiang Mai Bakuchiol Serum
Inspired by the calm botanicals of Northern Thailand, the Chiang Mai Serum blends clinical efficacy with mindful formulation. It delivers the smoothing, brightening, and firming benefits of retinol through a gentler, plant-based pathway.

Why Bakuchiol Performs Differently
| Concern | Traditional Retinol | Bakuchiol (Chiang Mai Serum) |
|---|---|---|
| Irritation | Frequent dryness, peeling | Gentle and non-sensitizing |
| Sun Sensitivity | Requires night-only use | Safe for daytime use |
| Pregnancy Safe | Not recommended | Safe for all life stages |
| Texture | Heavy or greasy | Lightweight, quick-absorbing |
| Results | 4–6 weeks | 4–8 weeks, comparable outcomes |
Bakuchiol triggers similar cellular pathways to retinol—improving elasticity and reducing the look of fine lines—without compromising comfort or barrier strength.
How to Use

After cleansing, apply 1–2 pumps to face and neck.

Clinical Performance
Independent studies show that bakuchiol can match retinol’s ability to improve elasticity, pigmentation, and wrinkle depth over 12 weeks—with significantly less irritation.
VAHNAI’s formulation combines bakuchiol with barrier-supportive botanicals to ensure sustained tolerance and long-term luminosity.
