As we age, I believe it's important to keep our hands looking youthful, so I've always been attentive to this. After about 3-4 weeks of using the product, I've noticed a significant brightening of the skin on the backs of my hands, and since I didn't have any wrinkles to begin with, I've been using it as a preventative measure. Moreover, the texture of the skin on the backs of my hands has become incredibly soft, and any discoloration or blemishes have visibly diminished. The results have been so impressive that I've purchased another bottle and have been applying it to my neck as well, and I've been able to use it without any irritation. When selecting a bakuchiol product, I was looking for one that didn't contain retinol or retinal, had a simple ingredient list, and had a high concentration of bakuchiol. The Benton product ended up being the best fit for my criteria, with a bakuchiol concentration of 25,000 ppm, which was the highest I've seen. Given the high concentration, I only need to use a tiny amount, the size of a bean, and it lasts a long time. When applying it to my neck, I mix a pump of the product into my lotion. For my hands, just the amount shown in the photo is sufficient. I've become completely dependent on this product - I can't imagine being without it. I really hope it continues to be available for a long time.
ConsThe scent was a bit surprising to me at first, but I didn't dislike it. It has a slight toasted bean-like aroma, which dissipates quickly, leaving just a subtle, earthy fragrance. However, for those who are particularly sensitive to scents, I would recommend trying a sample first. Also, since the concentration is so high, it's important not to overdo the application. I personally don't use this product on my face, as my skin is quite sensitive there. I'd rather be safe than risk any potential issues.
TipThat's right, you really only need to use a very small amount and you'll still see great results. I hope you're able to get good value out of this product! 🤍

Of course, using it alone is definitely not enough for dry skin! But my pores and skin texture have really improved a lot. I'll definitely buy it again once I finish this one.ㅎㅎ
ConsI usually can't use my nose to smell things properly, but the smell is really quite strong.ㅋㅋㅋ But even though the smell is strong, my skin has improved so the smell has gotten better too.ㅎㅎㅎ
TipWhen used together with MTS treatments, it's amazing for improving elasticity and brightening the next day!!

I will continue to use it.
ConsThe scent is very strong, like peanuts, and there is a slight ginger aroma, but it's okay. Also, after applying and doing a pack, there was a slight stinging sensation in one area.

It was effective in soothing my skin (reducing blemishes), improving skin texture, and boosting skin elasticity. It's best to start with a gradual approach, slowly increasing the amount and frequency of use when first trying the product. In my case, I've also been using a retinol product, and I think that's why I've seen even better results.
ConsThose sensitive to scents may find it difficult to use at first, but it becomes manageable with some adjustment. There is a slight burnt smell that can be a bit surprising at first :)

I could also feel that my skin texture had improved compared to before. I almost finished one bottle and repurchased it again!
ConsThe price is a bit expensive... And the scent was a little unpleasant at first, but I got used to it while using it, so it's not bad. I think I'll use a product with a natural scent instead of one with added fragrances.

After waking up and sleeping, my skin feels a bit smoother. I'll keep using it for a while longer.
ConsI think I'll only buy it when it's on sale. There's nothing else I'm particularly unhappy about.
TipIf you apply it before bed and get a good night's sleep, your skin will feel smoother.

While researching retinol products, I found this one with the most stable ingredient, bakuchiol. Bakuchiol is a plant-derived (from the Psoralea corylifolia plant) anti-aging and regenerative ingredient with fewer side effects, so even pregnant women can use it safely. I bought it with my own money and have been very satisfied overall. I only use it as a night care, and after just one use, my unnecessary small bumps and blemishes calmed down, my skin texture improved, and my skin looks radiant, as if I had a deep, restful sleep.
ConsThe only potential downside, which I learned from other reviews, is the unique scent of bakuchiol. It seems to be the aroma of the Psoralea corylifolia plant, a mix of woody, herbal, and cocoa-like notes. The scent is different from typical herbs and may not be universally appealing, with some people liking it and others disliking it. The product also has a caramel color, so it leaves a slight yellow tint on the face. However, it absorbs quickly and doesn't stain the pillow. Personally, I don't use it as a daily product, only as a night care.
