Little Lines Botanical Bakuchiol Face Serum
The Little Lines Botanical Bakuchiol Face Serum blows me away! It is a completely non-toxic retinol alternative serum that smooths out fine lines and wrinkles! This is the perfect serum for people with sensitive skin who want a natural product to diminish the appearance of fine lines. This is the best bakuchiol serum I have used so far. The thing that sets this one apart from others is its purity. It doesn’t even have glycerin like the Herbivore Botanicals bakuchiol serum. Here are my results from using it twice a day for 30 days (I used the Gua Sha in the morning):
About the founder:
“Little Lines makes radically clean & super functional skincare to nourish & smooth all the little lines that tell the story of a life well-lived.” Little Lines founder, Samantha, describes how she grew insecure about the natural lines that started to develop on her face in her 30’s. Though I don’t love to admit it, I also felt this way starting in my late 30’s. She developed the product after she discovered that her very sensitive skin reacted badly to retinol products, on top of that, she couldn’t find any products that were clean, unrefined, and preservative-free, so she decided to make her own. I can relate to the struggle of finding natural products that work for my skin!

How To Use:
Apply to skin after cleansing & toning. Use with gau sha for extra rejuvenation. For external use only. Avoid contact with eyes.
- Wash your face.
- Spritz with a toner or just keep the skin a little damp.
- Apply serum. The amount needed will vary, as everyone’s skin is different. You may only need a few drops, or you need a half dropper (Using half a dropper morning & night, one bottle will last a month).
- Gently massage the serum in. Spend a few minutes doing gua sha. (This really makes a difference for me) Gua sha can de-puff, help smooth wrinkles, define cheekbones, carve your jaw, increase circulation & more. If you don’t have a gua sha stone yet, check out Little Lines’ The Remedy Stone, a multipurpose tool made from heavy-duty, genuine bian stone.
