Frequently asked questions

What is the difference between this serum and the Retinol Alternative Moisturiser?
Both contain 2 percent Bidens pilosa, but they serve different purposes in your routine. The serum is lighter, absorbs faster, and goes on first. The moisturiser is richer and completes your routine. If you use them together, apply the serum first, followed by the cream. If you are looking for a fragrance-free finish, choose the Sensitive Overnight Cream.
How quickly will I see results?
You will often notice hydration within the first week. For visibly refined lines and texture, count on six to eight weeks of daily use. Skin renewal is a gradual process, regardless of the product or ingredient.
How were those percentages determined?
From a consumer test with 20 women who used the product daily for eight weeks and completed a questionnaire. This is a standard method in the cosmetics industry and provides a good overview of the user experience, but it is not a clinical study, and we do not present it as such.
Can I combine this serum with traditional retinol?
Not at the same time, as that increases the risk of irritation. However, alternating is possible: retinol on some evenings, this serum on the others. Many people eventually switch over completely, simply because they find this easier to stick with.
Does this product contain allergens for nuts or stone fruits?
The product is nut-free. However, it does contain rosehip oil (Rosa Canina), which is related to stone fruits like apricot and peach. If you have a known stone fruit allergy, we recommend performing a patch test on the inside of your arm for 24 hours first, or seeking advice from your doctor.
Is Bidens pilosa as strong as retinol?
We do not claim that. Retinol is the most thoroughly researched ingredient for visible skin aging, while research into Bidens pilosa is newer and less extensive. What we do know is that the extract consists primarily of unsaturated fatty acids, including linoleic acid, a building block of your skin barrier, and there is no adjustment period required. For those who cannot tolerate or are not permitted to use retinol, that is the difference between using something and using nothing.
