Babchi is an organic alternative to Retinol.
For centuries Babchi has been used in traditional Eastern medicine to treat many skin issues. Babchi is an oil extracted from the seed and leaves of the Psoralea Corylifolia plant.
While it appears to offer an overall reduction of fine lines and pigmentation it also is rich in antioxidant’s, such as Bakuchiol, offering anti-inflammatory and anti-microbial properties (excellent for acne-prone skin) while it stimulates collagen, resulting in increased skin elasticity.

I love how this face oil feels and looks on my face, even my husband has taken notice. I have naturally oily skin, so I was hesitant to try this product at first, but I'm happy to say that it doesn't make by face greasy or too oily (I apply nightly). I also have extreme reactions to retinol products - my face turns beat red, iches, and my eyes swell- so I'm so excited I've found something that works just as well as retinol with zero negative reactions!

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use Helia Glow Age-Defying Face Oil during pregnancy or while breastfeeding?
Let’s face it, skincare in pregnancy is a tough question and very often, the answer is to simply consult with your physician. The list for what you can’t use is typically longer than what you can use. In the case of Babchi (Bakuchiol), many companies claim it's safe 100% during pregnancy and breastfeeding as it is plant-based and extracted from the Babchi plant, unlike Vitamin A derivatives like retinol - retinoic acid. However, there isn't clinical data to support that it's 100% safe, but this lack of clinical data does not mean that Bakuchiol is not safe to use during pregnancy either. To be safe, we advise our customers to consult a trusted physician or midwife.
What does it smell like?
Our Age-Defying Face Oil does not use artificial or synthetic fragrances. Therefore, it smells naturally sweet and floral.
Can Helia Glow Age-Defying Face Oil replace other products in my skincare routine?
Yes! Our Age-Defying Face Oil may help you "skinstream". It can replace your moisturizer, night cream, and any other retinol product you currently use.
