Bakuchiol Extract (Bakuchi Fruit Extract) – Mild, aqueous extract for gentle skin care (CAS: 56-81-5)
Bakuchiol Extract (Bakuchi Fruit Extract) is derived from the fruits or seeds of the plant Psoralea corylifolia, also known as "Bakuchi" or "Babchi." While Bakuchiol is often associated with oily extracts in cosmetics, there are also aqueous extracts that focus on water-soluble components. Such aqueous extracts typically contain lower amounts of the lipophilic molecule Bakuchiol itself, but can provide other valuable water-soluble plant substances that are interesting for skin care.
Important Ingredients in Aqueous Bakuchiol Extract
- Bakuchiol (in reduced concentration): The main active ingredient remains partially intact; however, the values in a water-based extract may be lower than in oil-based extracts.
- Phenolic compounds and flavonoids: These antioxidant substances are partially water-soluble and can contribute to improved cell protection.
- Plant secondary metabolites: Aqueous extraction methods dissolve additional components that can support soothing, moisturizing, or anti-inflammatory effects.
Application in Cosmetics
As aqueous Bakuchiol extract, this ingredient differs from traditional oil-based Bakuchiol products.Nevertheless, there are numerous applications in skincare formulations:
- Gentle formulations: Since aqueous extracts can be integrated into light, non-greasy products, they are well-suited for toners, essences, and serum gels – ideal for users with oily or combination skin.
- Mild care: The extract can provide antioxidant and skin-soothing effects without the intensity of a highly concentrated bakuchiol oil. The risk of irritation is therefore often lower.
- Combination with other active ingredients: Aqueous bakuchi extracts can be combined with water-soluble active ingredients such as hyaluronic acid, panthenol, or niacinamide to achieve synergistic effects.
- Gentle "Retinol Alternative": Although the Bakuchiol content is lower here, users can still benefit from a retinol-like approach – with good skin compatibility.
Use in Food
Bakuchiol is not approved as an additive in the food sector and therefore has little use in food products. However, in some traditional applications, Psoralea corylifolia seeds or fruits are used in very small quantities. A special, aqueous Bakuchiol extract currently plays almost no role in conventional food production.
Dietary Supplements
Bakuchiol has not yet been established in supplements due to a lack of clear legal regulations and recognized health claims. A purely aqueous extract could theoretically have antioxidant benefits; however, there are:
- Legal Status: The permissibility of Psoralea corylifolia extracts and their ingredients for oral consumption (e.g., EU Novel Food Regulation) is often unclear or requires critical examination.
- Low Bakuchiol Levels: The core molecule Bakuchiol is lipophilic and is only limitedly soluble in an aqueous extraction. Therefore, the potential "beauty-from-within" potential would be lower than that of oily extracts.
Note: Dietary supplements are not a substitute for a balanced diet. It is advisable to thoroughly review the legal requirements and quality standards.
Manufacturing and Quality
The Bakuchiol Extract (Bakuchi Fruit Extract) in its aqueous form is obtained through a gentle, water-based extraction process that exclusively dissolves soluble components from the fruits or seeds. Careful filtration and, if necessary, concentration ensure a product as pure as possible. Quality features include:
- Abandonment of organic solvents: Pure water extractions can promote a "clean label" image.
- Consistent ingredients: Standardized processes ensure that the content of phenols and flavonoids remains constant.
- Control of undesirable substances: Psoralea corylifolia contains phototoxic compounds (e.g., furocoumarins) in parts, which must be minimized in quality-tested extracts.
Recommended usage concentration
Cosmetic products: Depending on the complexity of the formulation and the desired effect, aqueous Bakuchiol extracts are usually used in concentrations of 1–5%. Those primarily looking to benefit from antioxidant effects can orient themselves towards the lower end, while more intensive care applications may opt for a higher dosage.
Food & Supplements: Currently, there is hardly any common use.The application requires an individual case assessment and compliance with all regulatory requirements.
Clinical Studies and Efficacy
The majority of studies on Bakuchiol refer to oil-based extracts or pure Bakuchiol. Studies on the specific benefits of an aqueous extract are more limited. Nevertheless, various research findings suggest that water-soluble components of Psoralea corylifolia can provide antioxidant and skin-soothing effects.

Conclusion: Aqueous Bakuchiol Extract – A Gentle Alternative with a Special Profile
An aqueous Bakuchiol extract (Bakuchi Fruit Extract) offers an interesting opportunity to combine the positive aspects of Bakuchiol with a gentler, water-based character. Although the actual Bakuchiol content is lower than in oily variants, other valuable plant compounds can contribute to the nourishing and antioxidant effects. Those seeking a light, non-greasy formulation – such as for toners, serums, or essences – will find an exciting alternative in this. However, its use in food or dietary supplements remains highly restricted and requires thorough examination.In cosmetics, however, aqueous Bakuchiol extract can represent a gentle, plant-based option to complement skincare products and give them a modern active ingredient image.
