Is bakuchiol as effective as retinol?

Bakuchiol is gentler and generally better tolerated, but studies show slower, milder firming than retinol. Expect gradual pore and texture improvement over weeks.

Can I use it if I have sensitive skin?

Yes. It is formulated for sensitive skin and is free of the irritation many associate with retinol. Patch test first if you react easily.

How do I use the capsules?

Burst one capsule and apply the cream to your face daily as a moisturizer. Use it after cleansing and before sunscreen in the morning.

How many capsules are in a pack?

The pack contains four capsule pieces of 50ml total. That is a short supply if you use it daily.

Its best new price was $24.99 at iHerb as of November 8, 2026, across four stores. Check the price history before buying outside a sale.

Our take on the EQQUALBERRY Bakuchiol Plumping Capsule Cream

EQQUALBERRY's Bakuchiol Plumping Capsule Cream is a 50ml facial moisturizer built around bakuchiol, a plant-derived retinol alternative, plus niacinamide. It comes as four capsule pieces that burst into a hydrating cream, aimed at enlarged and sagging pores on sensitive skin. At $24.99 at iHerb as of November 8, 2026, it is the lowest of the four stores listing it new.

Pros

Bakuchiol gives retinol-like firming without typical retinol irritation
Niacinamide supports pore appearance and skin tone

50ml for about $25 is reasonable for a bakuchiol cream

No retinol-strength results; effects build slowly
Not formulated for babies, kids or tattoo care
