HOW TO USE
Apply to clean skin once a day. When introducing Architect into your skincare routine, use it conservatively and cautiously, especially if you are already using strong active ingredients. If you tolerate it well, over time you can use this product twice a day. If you have hyper-reactive or sensitive skin, use once a day and follow with soothing products from our pink range, designed for sensitive skin.
FAQS
FAQS
Is the Architect serum right for you?
If you cannot tolerate retinoids; if you are pregnant or breastfeeding; if you have adult acne and need an anti-aging treatment; if you are looking for something equally effective as Retinoids, but less irritating, that you can combine with other potent actives.
On which skin types is it best to avoid Architect serum?
If you have Rosacea or active dermatitis (skin inflammation and acute irritation).
I am currently using Retinoids, can I alternate it with Bakuchiol serum?
Absolutely yes.
Can I use the Architect serum with my favorite Exfoliants ?
Yes you can, but we recommend that you exercise caution if you have sensitive skin. When you start using the Architect serum, be sure to keep track of your skin's behavior and please understand that this is a potent active ingredient, even though it is not as irritating. We recommend that you start using the Architect serum twice a week if you wish to exfoliate daily and over time as your skin gets used to it, you will probably graduate to the simultaneous use of the hydroxy acids and Bakuchiol.
What is the key difference between Architect serum and Spectra serum? Both are emulsions in serum...
Yes, they are, but the difference is enormous.
The Spectra serum is designed to soothe skin inflammation, while the Architect serum is a very active restructuring product, functionally comparable to Retinol. If your skin suffers from inflammation, dermatitis or Rosacea, we suggest you use our sensitive skin range instead of Architect.

Architect
Skintegra Architect It is an intensive emulsion aimed at all types of skins, even acneicas, which want to treat photo-aging (hyperpigmentation) and the appearance of the first signs of aging (loss of elasticity and wrinkles).
It has a soft, light and nothing fat texture that is absorbed extremely fast and leaves a beautiful silky feeling on the skin.
Architect's main active ingredient is Bakuchiol, a plant derived compound PSORALEA CORYLIFOLIA. It is clinically proven that it works as a functional analogue of retinol, but without side effects that retinoids can cause in sensitive extreme skins.
In addition to containing 1% of Bakuchiol, Architect's specificity is also evidenced in the combination of moisturizing and anti-inflammatory ingredients such as ectoine, green tea, panthenol, allantoin, caffeine and resveratrol. It is clear that this combination of ingredients extracts the maximum potential of Bakuchiol, in addition to calming, voluminizing and protecting the skin with powerful antioxidants to make it resistant to other types of powerful active ingredients that we can use as a complement.
Bakuchiol vs retinoids
The Retinoids They are wonderful anti-aging and anti-acne ingredients. However, due to its irritation, extremely sensitive skin is generally not the best candidate for regular and long -term use. Speaking of Retinol, he Bakuchiol It is much less irritating, does not sensitize the skin with the sun and has a higher safety profile (it can be used in pregnant women and infants). Because it is less irritating, Bakuchiol, can be perfectly combined with other powerful assets (such as hydroxyacids, vitamin C, niacinamide, etc.) since they have a wonderful synergistic effect on the skin. However, retinoids are usually too sensitizing to mix with other active compounds.
How does 1% of Bakuchiol affect the skin for a period of 3 months?
- Anti-Microbial Action, treats the bacteria S. aureus and P. acnes whose proliferation causes the appearance of acne and folliculitis
- Strong antioxidant and anti-inflammatory action
- Normalizes the hyperproduction of sebum, by reducing the synthesis of 5-alpha reductase
- Reduces hyperpigmentation and unifies skin tone
- Treat gene expression for collagen types I, III and V
- Strengthens the protein synthesis of the extracellular matrix and the layer that connects the dermis and the epidermis, which increases the firmness, elasticity and volume of the skin
